I need to copy a part of table to file. But somehow neither "=" nor "in" work in the where clause
bcp "select Column1, Column2 from Table where Column1 in (100, 200, 300)" queryout "C:\file.txt" -S servername -U user -P password -c -t\t -r\r
It says "starting copy..." - and that's it.
Doing the same thing without where clause or with "<" or ">" works fine, but I need "in".

bcp queryout: "in" and "=" do not work

BCP Error: Error = [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Unable to resolve column level collations
When I try to BCP out the contents of Adventureworks in SQL Server 2005 with this command ...
bcp [AdventureWorks].[Sales].[Store] out "D:\MyDirectory\Sales_Store.bcp" -SPhilsTestServer\SQL2005 -n -T
I get the error
SQLState = S1000, NativeError = 0
Error = [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Unable to resolve column level collations
but only with the STORE table. The rest works fine. Whereas the identical command
bcp [AdventureWorks].[Sales].[Store] out "D:\MyDirectory\Sales_Store.bcp" -SPhilsTestServer\SQL2008 -n -T
works fine with the SQL Server 2008 instance. I've googled for an answer to this and all I can find is a lot of other very frustrated people posting on forums the same question and getting a variety of answers, none of which helps any of them. Is this another of Microsoft's 'stealth' bugs or is there a simple answer?

I done export names column data to one "dept.txt" file... by using following command running in cmd
** bcp "select names from test.dbo.dept" queryout dept.txt -T -c -t "|" -r "\n"...
That is successfull....
But How to import the one column names data from dept.txt file to dept table.... ?

bcp select where date between problem
The following works:
bcp tkcsdb.DBO.VP_TOTALS out c:\tkcsdb.dat -n -Usa -Pabc123de
and returns ~750k records. I'd like to limit the results by adding a date check against a field:
SELECT * FROM DBO.VP_TOTALS WHERE ADJUSTEDAPPLYDATE between '12/16/2011' and '12/31/2011';
which returns ~1200 records when fed to DTS. I've tried dozens of variations using bcp and gotten only mixed error codes as a result.
This is on Windows Server 2003 with MS SQL Server 80.

How to use BCP to dump query (cdc function ) retrieved data to text file
Im trying to use BCP to dump data from CDC function into a .dat file.
Im using the following query (which works in Server 2008 R2):
USE LEESWIJZER
DECLARE @begin_time datetime
, @end_time datetime
, @from_lsn binary(10)
, @to_lsn binary(10)
SET @end_time = '2013-07-05 12:00:00.000';
SELECT @to_lsn = sys.fn_cdc_map_time_to_lsn('largest less than or equal', @end_time);
SELECT @from_lsn = sys.fn_cdc_get_min_lsn('dbo_LWR_CONTRIBUTIES')
SELECT sys.fn_cdc_map_lsn_to_time(__$start_lsn) AS ChangeDTS
, *
FROM cdc.fn_cdc_get_net_changes_dbo_LWR_CONTRIBUTIES (@from_lsn, @to_LSN, 'all')
(edited for readability, used in BCP as single string)
my BCP string is:
BCP "Query above" queryout"C:\\temp\\LWRCONTRIBUTIES.dat" -w -t ";|" -r \\n -T -S {server\\\\instance} -o "C:\\temp\\LWRCONTRIBUTIES.log"
As you can see I want a resulting .dat file in unicode, and a log file.
I'm guessing the "ChangeDTS" column added to the function outcome is causing my problem.
Error message reads: "[Microsoft][SQL Native Client]Host-file columns may be skipped only when copying into the Server".
It may be resolved using a format file, but since this code needs to run daily, likely more than once daily, and the tables are subject to change, im reluctant to constantly adjust my format files (there are 100's of tables needing the same procedure).
Furthermore, this is run on a clients database, who probably wont like me creating views in their database.
.
Anybody got any idea how I can create a text file with a selected number of columns from a cdc function?
cheers

Help with XML format file, import int and fixed binary
I have a text file where each record of three fields looks like this:

.xls file created using bcp command cannot be opened in c#
I want a stored procedure to take backup of sq l tables and i want to retrieve and view in website.so i decided to export sql table to excel sheet(.xls) file,but when i retrieved it using Microsoft.jet.oledB driver....it throws error as EXTERNAL TABLE IS NOT IN THE SPECIFIED FORMAT......
1.when i try to open .xls file simply,it shows the file you are trying to open,'filname.xls' is in a different format,than specified by the file extension.Verify that the file is not corrupted and is from a trusted source before opening the file......
If i create a normal .xls file manually,i could open it in c# using microsoft.jet.oledb driver.....
So please give me any solution...

Stored procedure for data importing from flat files. Need some tips.
I am currently working on creation of SP to automate the process of importing flat data into SQL Server.
I want you to give me some useful advice on the best way how to realise, taking into account things I need:
1. File path and name, delimeter sign, table name as variables.
2. Logging process of importing in one file for every import task (errors and output results like in bcp)
3. Process flat files with different column order
4. Check if data we are trying to import already exists in database (don't replicate)
5. Batch import
6. Error cathing
Okay, now my thoughts. I would use either bcp or BULK INSERT.
Declare delimeter, source file, table as variables.
To identify column order I think we should parse first row with names and use intermediate table from which we then INSERT...SELECT into destination table in the right order.
Check if data already EXISTS before importing.
Still don't know about logging in one file with timeline. Any other errors that may occur?
Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Handling XML output to a file
Hello,
Several years ago, I build a system for a customer which produced XML output from a query. The calling VB .NET program calls BCP to run the stored procedure, and outputs the data to an XML file. This worked really well for many years, but the customer had a problem. The problem was that the file output is essentially a long single line of data. The pseudo code of the stored procedure looks like this:
- Make temporary tables
- Do a couple of SELECTS to fill temp
tables
- Do a SELECT ... FOR XML PATH...
In a recent upgrade, the customer requested that I changed the output so there are line feeds at the end of certain tags. This makes reading the data easier, and it has some other benefits to the customer. I couldn't find anything in the BCP options to handle this, so I made the following change to the query:
- Make temporary tables
- Do a couple of SELECTS to fill temp
tables
- Do a SELECT INTO XML type
- SET a STRING variable = XML type
- Go through STRING variable an insert
at the end of certain tags.
This works fine for queries returning under 30K records of about 1500 characters each. However, SQL Server crashed when attempting to handle a query of 60K records. The major difference in queries is transferring the XML data into the STRING variable. When looking up the limits of the STRING, I found that the upper limit is 2^31 characters, which seemed like more than enough space.
Has anyone had to output large XML files with line feeds? Is there a better method than using BCP? Or would I be better off importing the output into my program, and using the .NET XML tools to output this data to a file?
Any thoughts or advice would be welcome.
Best Regards,
halciber
