I have two tables in a SQL server 2005 database. They have the same column names. I want to append older date captured in one table to the other. When I run a script to insert the data I get an identity error. Please help.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to export a table that contains a bit field into a text file to be used for a bulk insert into another database.
when i export the data from SQL enterprise manager, the bit field is exported as the text TRUE or FALSE ???!!!
this data then cant be bulk inserted as its not a BIT anymore.
how can bit fields be properly exported as 1 or 0 ?
is there a quick T-SQL that backup a table to a file
that it is possible to restore the data in the future to the same table ?
Thanks

View 1 Replies View RelatedHello,
Hoe can i correct some data in a table? We have imported data from a number of hospitals (hospital ID, room number, bed) Something went wrong during the import and wrong data are imported, so we see the room and bed numbers of location 195 as being room and bed nummers of 190. I have tried to import the correct data using the wizard but i get an extra table instead of correcting the table with the wrong data. It has to be an easy way to do this? I have tried to export them in Excel, i have corrected the data and then i imported the data again. Could anyone please help me? Thanks

Does anyone know how I can, using SQL and/or T-SQL syntax (although I could do a CLR in C# too..), export a SQL table from SQL Server 2005 to a new Visual FoxPro 9 DBF (table)? The DBF would need to be created on the fly too because this will have to basically be able to export any SQL table...
Thanks ahead of time for any and all assistance...
how should I go about exporting a couple of columns of data from a specific database table to an excel spreadsheet stored locally on a client machine (the one the script is being executed from). I am using SQL server 2000 SP3.
I'm fairly new to using SQL server, and not experienced at all with Transact-SQL.
Rookie qustion here quys,
Using SQL Sever 2005 Express and Visual Web Devoloper Express.
I'm trying to get data from my local SQL sever database to my shared hosting database. SImple enough but...
1.) GoDaddy does not allow remote connections to the DB server
2.) With GoDaddy you can't just upload an .MDF file to your remote directory and script a connection string. You have to reference the DB server. Can't upload DB file to DB server.
As a work around, I've seen several .sql files that have all the T-SQL that will create a database and tables then insert the data. I've google'd extensively and searched several forums with no luck as to how to export my local data to file. I could then copy and paste into an online utility GoDaddys has to insert the data.
Is there a relatively easy way to export table data to a .sql file??? When I try using SQL Server Management Studio Express and "Scipt Table As> Insert To> File", It just gives me something like the following...
INSERT INTO [pubs].[dbo].[authors] ([au_id] ,[au_lname] ,[au_fname] ,[phone] ,[address] ,[city] ,[state] ,[zip] ,[contract]) VALUES (<au_id, id,> ,<au_lname, varchar(40),> ,<au_fname, varchar(20),> ,<phone, char(12),> ,<address, varchar(40),> ,<city, varchar(20),> ,<state, char(2),> ,<zip, char(5),> ,<contract, bit,>)
Plenty of data in this table, no data in script ???
Can SQL Server Management Studio Express do what I wanting to do? If not, any suggestions? Know of a better hosing company?

How do I export an sql table from a server db using SQL Enterprise Manager?
I have tried using Microsoft Web Data Administrator but it can't connect to the db.

Anbody please help
I am trying to export a text file to a table using enterprise manager
and all tasks
But the process keeps adding strange charater like squares at the end
of each line and also replaces each empty line in the text file with a record in the table with that square type character. I used the following code to delete all rows with that character (as a work around) but no joy. I am losing hope.
Code is
DELETE FROM table1
WHERE column1 = ' '

while exporting database table to ms excel, i m getting yellow marked icon on selected columns. Why is it so?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a de-normalized table that I need to export to XML using For XML, but put all of the related rows under the same node.The table is alot more complicated than the example below, but for proof of concept purposes, i'll keep it really simple:
Campaign, Price
C1, 4.00
C1, 6.00
C1, 10.00
C2, 1.00
C2, 13.00
C3, 20.00
If I have a table of campaigns and prices, I would like to output it as XML like the following:
<Campaign name="C1">
<Price value="4.00"></Price>
<Price value="6.00"></Price>
<Price value="10.00"></Price>
</Campaign>
<Campaign name="C2">
<Price value="1.00"></Price>
etc
The default behaviour gives me this:
<Campaign name="C1" price="4.00"/>
<Campaign name="C1" price="6.00"/>
<Campaign name="C1" price="10.00"/>
Is there an existing option that deals with this automatically, or do I essentially need to do a group by to output the campaign element, and then union an ungrouped select to output the price element?

Hi,
I was wondering if there is a way to export just the table names of all the tables in a sql database to an excel spreadsheet. Can I also see the table structure, like which are the parent tables and which are the child tables? Please let me know. I'm using SQL server 2005.
Thanks.

Hello,
I am trying to export bunch of tables to excel files, and some table columns contain leading 0s. I tried to use bcp and found that it's not possible to directly export to excel file with leading 0s. I don't want to export to txt or csv file format since the client needs to update excel file as well.
We now think to use SSIS to do the transformation, but got problem. I used OLF DB as source, Excel as destination. I directly connect OLF DB to Excel destination, but always got error message which said unicode cannot convert to non-unicode. Can anyone explain how I get this error since we don't use unicode in the tables, and I make sure the table excel created used varchar and smallint?
Thanks in advance.

Is there any utility or scritp to do this? It will be great to import indexes and keys also.
Thanks in advance.

I need to export data from a table to a text file, where the data in the table is deleted after written to the file. It is simple using DTS, but I want to do the export in "chunks" of data, committing the delete say after every 1000 rows.
My thought was a stored procedure would be easy enough to do this (done these in Oracle many times), but I don't know the quickest way to export a row of data from a stored procedure to a text file. Isn't using a command-line shell too slow? What are my options?
