How To Copy Data Between Tables With Different Schemas
Feb 21, 2007
Hi there;
i've recently designed a new db for my portal website, and wanna move
the old data from former db to the new one. The problem is that
for the 'News' table, for instance i have two different schemas:
Old >>News(id,title,summery,text,date, ... , (old columns) , ...)
New >> News(id, title , summery , text , date, lastUpdated, ... , (new columns) , ...)
i
want to copy the bolded columns, and want to have 'lastUpdated' &
'date' in the new table to be the same as 'date' in the former one.
as i googled, i just found materials on copying dbs to production servers, or cross db scenarios.
I have 2 SQL server 2000 machines, I need to take a table from each one and combine them together based on a date time stamp. The first machine has a database that records information based on an event it is given a timestamp the value of variable is stored and a few other fields are stored in Table A. The second machine Table B has test data entered in a lab scenario. This is a manufacturing facility so the Table A data is recorded by means of a third party software. Whenever a sample is taken in the plant the event for Table A is triggered and recorded in the table. The test data may be entered on that sample in Table B several hours later the lab technician records the time that the sample was taken in Table B but it is not exact to match with the timestamp in Table A. I need to combine each of these tables into a new SQL server 2005 database on a new machine. After combining the tables which I am assuming I can based on a query that looks at the timestamp on both Tables A & B and match the rows up based on the closest timestamp. I need to continuously update these tables with the new data as it comes in. I havent worked with SQL for a couple of years and have looked at several ways to complete this task but havent had much luck. I have researched linked servers, SSIS, etc Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have two SQL Server tables on the same server and in the same database. I'll call them table A and table B. They have identical schemas. I need to insert all rows in table A into table B. (Don't laugh - this is just for testing and long run the tables will reside on different servers.)
Can someone please tell me the correct task to use for this and the connection type I need for both the source and destination?

Afteran order is placed and is approved, I would like to copy all of theitems in the CartItems table for that given cartID to the OrderItemstable given a new orderID.I will know the cartID and orderID ahead of time and would like tosend them both into a stored procedure and have the transfer takeplace.Example:take this data...CartItems (table)--------------------------------------cartID | itemID | quantity | price--------------------------------------12345 2 1 12.9512345 7 2 17.95and make it this data...OrderItems (table)--------------------------------------orderID | itemID | quantity | price--------------------------------------00001 2 1 12.9500001 7 2 17.95via some stored procedure that I send (@cartID,@orderID)Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
I normalized the below tables but I am finding it difficult to copy data to the new tables. Â How do I copy data from existing table to the normalized tables? see the table structure below and other supporting information:
SKU_DATA(SKU,SKU_Description,Department,Buyer) Note: this table already has data in it. CREATE TABLE SKU_DATA ( SKU     Integer NOT NULL,
[code].....
The table structure above have two three determinants( SKU,SKU_Description and Buyer).  SKU and SKU_Description are candidate keys. Primary key is SKU.
Normalization : SKU_DATA(SKU,SKU_Description, Buyer) Â BUYER(Buyer,Department)
I've two SQL databases, the first one having the schema named sch1 and the second one with the schema named sch2. I need to copy data of more tables belonged to the sch1 into the sch2 of the second SQL Server db and I'd like to create a SSIS 2012 pkg in order to achieve this goal.
I have the following scenario: N identical Databases (corresponding to different Fiscal Years, with names <Company Name>.<YEAR>). We want to consolidate the N DBs to a New Datawarehouse.
In SSIS we have designed a Dataflow that reads through a OLE DB Source (Connected to one of the N Databases) and maps to a OLE DB Destination (Connected to the NEW DB).
The question is, how we loop in SSIS through the N identical Connections, so to repeatedly execute the designed Dataflow, each time with a different Connection?
I have a table that I am basically reduplicating a couple of times for each part of this database that I want to create.Each table basically has the same data: The tables will be called motherTable, fatherTable, sonTable, daughterTable and so on.I am pretty much using the following in each column: UserID, MotherID(or FatherID or SonID, etc., etc. and so on for each unique table), FirstName, LastName, MiddleName, BirthPlace, Photo, Age.I don't see an option to copy a table and just modify the second ID part and rename that table accordingly.How can I make this an easier way of creating these similar tables without retyping all these columns over and over again?Thanks in advance.
I have two databases and want to copy tables (with table data) and stored procedures from one database to another.both databases have the same name (so management studio is not letting me have both up)....what should I do?thanks.
What is the easiest way for me to copy my database tables so that I could use the copy as a template to work on for setting primary keys, and normalizing the data?
A question from a beginner. Is there a simple command to create a copy of at table with its original attributes. I would like to take a table for a year and copy it to an archive file with the year appended to the name, i.e. myfile copied to myfile02

I want to copy from DB certain tables to an other DB. How can I do that with SQL Server 2005. I would prefer an SQL string solution instead of buttonclicking solution.
I have 2 databases and each of them has different tables. I want to copy all of tables of database A to database B while keeping the existing tables of database B.
I need to duplicate all the tables owned by dbo to another object ownername in a database within the same database.That means,if there are 100 table owned by dbo in a 'Database A'. I need to have a total of 200 tables in the same database 100 each for dbo and 100 for another user.They should have same schema including the keys etc and data.How is this possible?Through DTS we can't copy them to the same databse.We do not want to have a temp db inbetween to complete this process.Any ideas on how to do this? NOTE:This is not a one time job. Thanks. Sheila.
copy the tables of a database that will keep the indexes,constraints etc.? I'll be using SQL 2008 or Visual Studio 2008. The basic SSIS package will not work since our databases are being updated from time to time. (e.g. new columns/tables meaning we need to redo the SSIS package everytime there are changes).
I need to construct a database that only has certain elements of another db. I would like to write one batch of commands to either create the tables or update them if the table already exists. I've found examples to update sections of a table, but not the entire thing. Any assistance or relavent links are greatly appreciated.

My current project copies source tables to destination tables. Structure at both sides is identical so it€™s kinda €˜repetitive€™ process to drag source and destination components.
So I want to create component which should do following €“
select source connection select source tables select destination connection select all destination table map source table to destination table
validate columns mapping based on the names
To enhance, I also would like to support creation and mapping of custom values.
So I would really appreciate any kind of input in creating this component. Currently I am reading tutorials on creating SSIS components.
I need to 'copy' selective (filtered) rows from table 'A' to table 'B' on a regular basis, but only if they do not exist in table 'B'. If rows get deleted from table 'A' they must remain table 'B'. If rows change in table 'A' (unlikely) they should be update in table 'B'
What feature of SQL should I be using? - triggerering a stored procedure on Insert - replication - SSIS
