How would I be able to query a table (ie. all people with last name 'Smith'), have that set of data outputted to a regular text file (in a formatted way)
And what's the best way to manipulate that set of data to let's say update a Yes/No field in that table to mark that that those individuals('Smith') which were outputted in that text file?
What about the reverse? If I got a regular text file with Last Name, Social Security(delimited by tab), etc is there a way I can get SQL Server to read that text file and make an update to the database based on the Social security in that text file.
I am running SQL Server 2000 and need to output query data to a text file. If I run the following query (Below) using XP_CMDSHELL and BCP, it runs fine and creates a text file with the data output.
However, I need to change the WHERE Field1=10 to a string value WHERE Field1='abc'. When I try to do this I get a general error on the Field1='xyz'. I tried to change the quotes, etc but I am still getting the error.
Command: Exec master..xp_cmdshell 'bcp "SELECT Field1 FROM Table WHERE Field1=10" queryout c:filename.txt -U UserName -P Password /S SQLServerNam /c'

Can someone point me to an output to text solution?Thanks

To explain it a more better way, I have a sample webpage text here. I should be searching for "FullCountyLoanLimitList" appended by the current year (like FullCountyLoanLimitList2015) and copy the entire file name in the text file and assign it to another variable so that I can download that specific file using WebClient connection.

In SQL Query Analyzer, there is a Query drop down window that gives youthe option to change the output from grid to text for printing ifneeded. My question is, can this be programmed so a stored procedurewill always print in text without having to manually change the windoweach time the procedure is run? I could find nothing under the logicalsearches in books online.Thanks JAB
I have the following Query which gives the output in XML format. select * from <Table_Name> For XML auto I wanted to store this output in a .Xml file at my local machine. I would prefer to have a proc when called generates the xml and stores it on the local m/c. Any ideas ? Thanks,
How can I program BCP to output text items in double quotes (")? Here is an example (please try it) that trys to output some columns from a table to csv file. However, due to the existence of commas within the fields, the comma separation gets messed up.
------------------------------------ USE [MASTER]
IF EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM sysobjects WHERE name = 'mcg1') DROP TABLE mcg1 go
CREATE TABLE mcg1 (pkINT IDENTITY(1,1) ,Address_1VARCHAR(100) ,CityVARCHAR(100)) go
Exec Master..xp_Cmdshell 'bcp "SELECT Address_1, City FROM mcg1" queryout "C:mcg1.csv" -c -t,"'
------------------------------------ The output I get is below. You can see how the use of commas in the text makes the comma separate list all confused 100 Road1, Suburb1,BigCity1 200 Road2, Suburb2,BigCity2
Thus what I want is "100 Road1, Suburb1","BigCity1" "200 Road2, Suburb2","BigCity2"
You can do this OK in DTS by specifying the text identifier to be double-quotes. I do NOT want to use DTS and want to be able to do via a T-SQL procedure. Note that the real table I will export from has numeric datatypes and I would prefer NOT to wrap them in double-quotes too.
Thus, how can I alter the Exec Master..xp_Cmdshell command, to wrap each text field in double quotes. I may have to use a format file in which case please provide the format file too.
