Is there any simple way to copy tables from one database to another in SQL Management Studio or VS 2005? I sometimes work split work between home and work and I often need to copy and table and its data (data, stored procedure, etc) to a different database, but having to create a new database then copy the data is a pain. Is there an easier way?

I've got a very simple problem I can't find an answere to.
I've got an MSDE database and I want to copy a table.
I've tried something like:
create table2 as select * from table1
with and without the "as", but I can't get it to work and I can't find a good answere on the internet.
very thankful for an answere!

I have a 100m row table that I need to come from one database to another database in SQL SERVER.
The bulkcopy feature in DTS is nice -- however is there a stored procedure or external software that will be able to do this outside of DTS.
Right now I am doing a
SELECT *
INTO
(table name)
FROM (table name)
and on a 100m row table it is taking around 52 hours. Not acceptable.
We've had a new server set up with SQL 2012 and I'm in the process of moving data to it from a 2008 (SP2) server.
Details are as follows:-
2012 instance:- Microsoft SQL Server 2012 - 11.0.5058.0 (X64)
May 14 2014 18:34:29
Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation
Standard Edition (64-bit) on Windows NT 6.3 <X64> (Build 9600: ) (Hypervisor)
2008 instance:- Microsoft SQL Server 2008 (SP2) - 10.0.4000.0 (X64)

Copyright (c) 1988-2008 Microsoft Corporation
Standard Edition (64-bit) on Windows NT 6.1 <X64> (Build 7600: ) (VM)
I don't want to do a backup/restore routine as there are collation conflicts on the 2008 server.I've created the database and tables on the 2012 instance and now I want to transfer the data from the 2008 instance to the 2012 one.
The 2012 instance has a linked server to the 2008 instance.I was trying to use sp_MSForEachTable (I know, it's old and will probably disappear shortly) but that doesn't seem to work properly because some of the columns have an Identity field set up.
Some of the tables have upwards of 10 million records in them and are quite sizeable.how I can achieve the transfer without a back-up/restore?

HI,
I current have two 2005 boxes running 9.0.3050 in different DMZ with the source running a DTS to drop and copy its tables to the source every night. It was working up until last thursday. Nothing has changed in the FW rules and getting no errors. One is 3.5GB which copies fine, the other is 21GB and runs all night with only getting a fraction of the tables populated. I'm the hardware guy, but have some understanding w/ sql. Thanks in advance for any help.
I have a large table that I need to copy, but I need to generate a new value for my id field using a SPROC and replace my existing ID value. I also have a few mapping tables I need to copy, so I need to store this new ID for later use. I currently have a SPROC that performs all these actions, but it takes about 3 or 4 minutes to complete and completely hogs the CPU time. Thus, I can't perform any actions until it finishes.
I'm looking for a way to run this procedure in the background. Unfortunately, my ID field value is not a GUID nor an IDENTITY column. I've researched Integration Services, but I was unable to find any DataFlow Tranformations to call a SPROC to retreive a new id nor could I find anything that would let me store my new id to update my mapping tables. SQLBulkCopy wasn't a good solution either.
If anyone has any insight to this, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks,
Hi. I need to move data from one database table to
another across database instances. A simple example of the typical
move would be:
[CODE]
INSERT into destination_db.dbo.table1
SELECT column1, column2, column3, column4 from source_db.dbo.table2
[/CODE]
My options are:
1. Create an SSIS package to perform the move.
2. Create sprocs and schedule the data move as jobs.
3. Write .NET code using sprocs to perform the move.
I'll have to move hundreds of thousands of records, so I want the
option that provides the best performance. I'm guessing that option 3
will be the slowest.
Thanks for the help!
I need to create a fairly simple package. And almost because of the simplicity, I'm stumped.
I need to copy all non-system tables from server1.database1 to server2.database2. Additionally, four of the 30+ tables need to be renamed on the fly -- i.e. their name will reflect the year and month that the copy takes place.
I've tried using the Transfer SQL Server Object Task to simply copy the tables, but I get flaky results at best with it. Sometimes it tells me the source table doesn't exist, when I can clearly see it (and I've selected it from the list). And even though I have turned on the Include Indexes option, they don't always come through.
I'm wondering if I need to do a For Each loop looking at an ADO object?
Any suggestions?

Hi,
I'm trying to create a package with SSIS to replace the DTS process that we have in place already.
DTS package copy four table content from one server to another. I have created a simple SSIS to do the same processes but the process it alot slower than DTS!!
I did ran the SSIS package using ctrl+F5 and also from command prompt but still it's quite slow.
SSIS uses SMO to access to server and both are running on 2005
Thanks
1. Take a subset of data from about 100 tables that have multiple references to other tables in this group of 100 from a first DB.
2. Insert the above data into a second DB, a database that already has data in the 100 tables, while maintaining the correct references.
As a general approach, the best way I can think of doing this is as follows:
1. Create mapping tables for every ID that is referenced in a different table (OldID NewID)
2. Insert the old data into the new table and output the OldID and NewID into the mapping table.
3. Use that mapping data to make sure all tables that use those IDs have the new IDs in DB2.
This approach is extremely labor intensive both on initial implementation and would require a fairly substantial amount of work to maintain going forward.
I have been using the below query to copy a record of data that exists in several draft tables to the original tables. how do i change this query such that i can input multiple records at one time so multiple records get copied to original tables from the draft tables
At this time when i feed mutiple requestids to my query it simply errors out
SET NOCOUNT ON
GO
DECLARE @oldrequestid varchar(50),@newrequestid varchar(50)
DECLARE db_cursor CURSOR FOR
SELECT RequestId from report_request_draft where requestid in (320762)
[Code] ....
I have a table, dbo.Table1(Id,Col1,Col2,Col3,Col4,Col5,Col6,Col7,Col8) that I need to split between two tables dbo.Table2(Id, Col1, Col3, Col4) and dbo.Table3(Id,dbo.Table2_Id,Col5,Col6,Col7,Col8). But in dbo.Table3 I need to have the Id column from dbo.Table2 populated since its a foreign key constraint in dbo.Table3. How do I go about doing this?

Hi there, my question is really simple. I want to setup an automatic task in SSIS that drops the tables in the target database and substitutes them with tables from the source database. We are talking about two or three dimension tables and one fact table. The dimension tables are pretty small. The fact table will contain, at maximum, 300,000 rows and 12 columns. I do not use delta or flag historisation btw. What tasks in SSIS would you suggest to use?
BTW I'm new to SSIS... ;-) Thanks in advance!
I have a rather sizeable SQLServer 2000 database. To work on an issue, I would like to copy just a couple tables into SQL Server 2005 Express. How does one go about this efficiently?
Hello-
I need to know what would be the best way to perform a task I have been assigned. I have read multiple post online, and I came to the conclusion that the Import/Export wizard was my best choice. I'm trying to copy at least 80 tables from a SQL 2000 server to a SQL 2005 server. Currently I have these tables over on the destination server (SQL 2005) but this data is outdated and needs to be updated. The ulitimate goal would be to set up a SSIS process so that I can schedule this process to copy over once the data has passed QA. I followed through the Import/Export Wizard inside of the BID and I manually highlighted all of the tables and performed a edit "delete rows in destination table" . But to my alarm this did not occurr and now I have duplicate records in all of my 80 tables. I'm going to go through this process again, but I wanted to make sure this was going to be my best option.
Any suggestion ?

hi
I've got a job which copy tables between different servers .
I am feeding the tables one by one and the process of copying is in a loop so I have cotrol over the copying process.
it works fine but sometimes randomly I am getting
Execution failed with the following error: "ERROR : errorCode=-1071636471 description=SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005.An OLE DB record is available.

and the process fails and this might happen for in any point and on any table and sometimes it runs all the way successfully!!
any idea what the problem might be!

Hi,
Can anyone tell how to copy multiple tables from from one db to another using SSIS object model.
I am confused with things like. Do I need to add multiple source and destination in a dataflow task or do I need to add multiple dataflow task?
What is the difference between these two? Is there any other (easy way) to achieve this?
Thanks.
I have a real table with an identity column and a trigger to populate this column.
I need to import / massage data for data loads from a different format, so I have a temp table defined that contains only the columns that are represented in the data file so I can bulk insert.
I then alter this table to add all the other columns so that it reflects all the columns in the real table. I then populate all the values so that this contains the data I need.
I then want to insert into the real table pushing the data from the temp table, however this gives me errors stating that the query returned multiple rows.
I specified all the columns in the insert grouping as well as on the select from the temp table.
ANY thoughts / comments are appreciated. This is beginning to drive me nuts.

I need to copy all the data from all the tables in a database to a copy of this database on another server.
What feature of SSIS should I take advantage of to accomplish this?
We have an SLA for 8am, most times the data warehousing jobs complete at 8:05am. Adding an additional process/set of tasks to this package would obviously make matters so I'm trying to update/copy/replicate the data in the fastest manner. Typically we're talking 2 marts (10-20GB) with 2 large tables (5-10 mill records) and 20 marts (0.5 - 5 GB) with many more smaller tables (~40 tables with record count ranging from 1 to a million)
Additionally please indicate if the design/feature you suggest can handle (pushing schema changes and additions to the target server) schema changes or new tablesviews added to the source database.
My only idea so far...is using the import wizard (in Management Studio) to create an SSIS package (top copy all the tables from one server to another) and saving it to the server, Then executing this package after the job is complete. However this would not work if the schema of a table changed, or if a a table is added. Moreover I don't think I can edit this package in visual studio.
This question is about SQL Server 2005:
I have been trying to figure out how to copy tables and stored procedures between 2 databases (on the same server) using SQL Server Management Studio. I have tried right clicking on the table name, "script table as", "drop to", "clipboard", then I click on the 2nd database, and then click on the "tables" . I change the name of the database and click "execute". This creates the table but does not copy the data. I have also tried "create to" "clipboard" and "insert to" "clipboard" and cannot seem to be able to figure out how to get the results that I want. I am new at this but need to get the tables with the data copied along with the stored procedures, even if I have to do them one at a time. When I was using SQL Server 2000, I was able to use DTS to copy objects to other databases easily. Can someone please tell me a way to accomplish what I need to do? I have gotten information here before that was very useful and was hoping that someone can help me again.Thank you so much. Carol Quinn

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm new to my company, although not new to SQL 2005 and I found something interesting. I don't have an ERD yet, and so I was asking a co-worker what table some data was in, they told me a table that is NOT in SQL Server 2005's list of tables, views or synonyms.
I thought that was strange, and so I searched over and over again and still I couldn't find it. Then I did a select statement the table that Access thinks exists and SQL Server does not show and to my shock, the select statement pulled in data!
So how did this happen? How can I find the object in SSMS folder listing of tables/views or whatever and what am I overlooking?
Thanks,

Hi, I have been having fun and games for well over a week now trying to get an xml file copied into an sql file, but still have no joy. I and using the bulk copy to do this and think I am close to solving it but just need a final push in the write direction.
In green below is the full source code, I think that the trouble is with the try statement part here:
Try
bulk.WriteToServer(xd)
This comes up with the error :
Unable to cast object of type 'System.Xml.XmlDocument' to type 'System.Data.IDataReader'
Basically how do I get the XML data into a reader (or IDataReader) format so that the writetoserver command can interpret it
I would be so greatful if someone could help resolve this it is becoming increasingly more frustrating
