OK, i'm able to copy over data using bcp, how do I take this file and create a table into another remote db server. It fails on the name (of the table) because it doesn't exist yet. bcp $tablename in $sourcefile $myargs -- Gerardo S.

Typical you should run it like this for import (from memory): bcp <db>..<table> in <input file> -a1000 -b1024 -c -S<servername> <-P<passwd> -U<user> | -T> -t\t -r\t " like: bcp mydb..testtable in testdata.txt -a1000 -b1024 -c -S127.0.0.1 -R -r\t -t\t a: batch size b: packet size c: charchater data (needed if data is a text file) S: sername P: passwd U: user name T: trusted t: filed delimiter (\t == tab, char(9)) r: row delimiter (it can be buggy with \n) The order of the parma does not matter. To dump data use key word "out" in stead of "in". -----Original Message----- From: Gerardo Rojas To: Svensson, B.A.T.

Don't know what parameters are need and in what order. It complains about the direction. -- Gerardo S. Rojas mailto: grojas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -----Original Message----- From: Svensson, B.A.T.
