Exporting Database For Importing On Another Server
Mar 9, 2007
This may be a simple question with an obvious answer, but I'm fairly new to databases and I can't seem to find the right procedure.
I created a database on my machine. If I want to copy the information from this database (columns, tables, and entries specifically) from my machine to another SQL server on a different machine, what is the best way to do this without manually re-entering all of the information?
Is there a simple export/import of a database for transferring it from one server to another?
Thanks,

I'm really new to the whole database deal (as well as VB.net) - specifically with the capabilities surrounding VB and SQL Server 2005. My question is open to any recommendations...
What I have is an application that a user uses to create 'new' products. They are presented a form to enter the information regarding the product they wish to create. They enter the details of the product and also locate an image that represents the product, too. Currently, this application saves the product information (including binary image data) into a SQL Server 2005 Express Edition database. This application and database reside on a client pc. What I need to do is to be able save updated and newly created product data into a file of some sort. That file will make its way to a memory stick (USB) and then be transported to a 'field' machine. Quite simply, what is the best way to do this? Are there walk-throughs on this sort of thing? The target database is also SQL Server 2005. I thought I'd post this question on here to get the best design ideas... Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have a web application I created in asp.net + sql2005 and am deploying a genercized version of it to multiple clients. I have created a script which dynamically generates a database to a server and creates all of the tables, procs, and views. I now need data from the old database, which will be imported into the new database. It's basically default users, lookup values, etc. What are some methods of getting this data out of the old server and into the new server? I was thinking about generating flat files with the data, then writing code to loop through and insert the data, but it seems very tedious. Do I have any other options? I cannot use Backup and Restore because I have no access to the new sql server's filesystem.Thanks.

also i was wondering, that i have been reading that with this sp2 for sql server 2005 express you are able to use the dts wizard, is this true? i have a few databases in access that i would like to import into sql, would i have to create the tables first in sql then import or will the import also bring the tables & structure in?
thank you to all

dBase importing was handled by the import/export tool provide with SQL 2000. I see no way to import .dbf files in sql 2005 except to load the sql 2000 tools. I realize that the dbf format is old, but there is still a lot of stuff that comes in dbf and sql2005 needs to support this.
Where can I find an importer for dbf to sql2005?
I keep hearing lots of work arounds but nothing to explain why a common data format can't be easily imported/exported in sql2005 tools. Whats the deal?

Hello Everybody,
Not sure if this is the correct Forum, anyway lemme me know your views. I
have SQL Server running in two remote machines (in different geographical
locations). I need to import a database from one SQL Server
installation to another installation. What is best possible solution:
1) Transfering the .mdf and .ldf file from one installation to another installation
2) Generating the records of all the tables in the database to a common
file format CSV and then loading it in destination database. If this is
ok then how to generate import and export data using CSV format
3) Any other options?

Hello,
I'm fairly new to MS SQL & I have a problem copying tables from one d/b to another. When I do an import or export select Copy tables, the tables & the data get transferred, but all the Identities are set to NO. My D/Bs have 188 tables & it's a pain to reset all of them manually.
Is there a setting I don't know about that will transfer the tables & maintain the Identity?
(I'm using SQL Server Management Studio 9.0)
Thanks for your help - Breck Cogdill

I am currently redirecting lookup failures into error tables with ErrorCode and ErrorColumn. It works fine until I want to transfer data into the archived database. The SSIS pacakage generate by SQL Exporting tool is throwing an "duplicate name of 'output column ErrorCode and ErrorColumn" error. This is caused by oledb source error output. The error output automatically add ErrorCode and ErrorColumn to the error output selection and not happy with it.
I think the question is down to "How to importing/exporting data when table contains ErrorCode or ErrorColumn column?"

Hi,
Is it possible to export an entire SQL Server database to Access in one go, as a scheduled job, or do I need to create a package which does it a table at a time?
Thanks

I need to import csv data into a SQL Server 2005 database using SQL Server Management Studio Express. I can't find any menu options for accomplishing this. Is this a limitation of the Express edition, or am I missing something when I try to find this feature?Thanks for any help provided.

I work for a company that makes heat transfers for the imprinted apparel market. We're developing a database of merchandise images for all of our non-design inventory. Using Access we're going to be inserting thumbnails of psd (photoshop) files. We're wondering if there is any way to import multiple psd's into the sql server database into matching records like matching a column named "filename" and the actual filename of the file without having to upload each file individually. We want to be able to dump the files from the database of the matching records, also. This way, once our catalog designer has found which designs they need to put into the new catalog, it will dump the psd's for us. The same for our staffer who does color separations.
Any suggestions out there? If you need me to post further of what we're trying here, I will. This is for the bossman.

Hello all:
I have gone through most of the question posed by people, about importing data from EXCEL sheet to some table using SQL server database. I have a slight variation of this problem.
My excel file contains some information apart from the normal data.
Lets say some 5-6 lines always gives me some info about the data, like its purpose, client info, date etc...
After this INFO my actually data start, which I want to load into table.
I have found some wizard for the same, "EMS SQL MANAGER 2005", which supports most of the file formats, and load data into the database.
But we are planning to not use this tool, instead everything should be done using TSQL.
If somebody can please gives me some idea how this problem can be tackle, it would be a great help. We won't be using any Third party tools, like scripting etc...
We want to stick with just TSQL for this problem.
Thanks a bunch,
sabegh

[Note: originally posted this on microsoft.public.sqlserver.programmingbut had no luck there...sorry if you're seeing this twice]Some facts:1) I have an Access database (.mdb file) sitting on my harddrive.2) I have Visual Studio 2005, Sql Server Express, and Sql ServerManagement Studio Express.3) I do *not* have Microsoft Access.What I'm trying to do:I simply want to import the Access database into Sql Server Express. Inother words, I want to end up with a Sql Server Express database thathas all the same tables, keys, and relationships as the Access databaseas well as all the data from it. I can live without the queries storedin the Access database, but those would be nice too.What I've tried so far:I'm able to connect to the Access database using the "Linked Servers"features in Management Studio Express. From there, I was able to writesome simple Transact-SQL queries to find out what tables are in theAccess database and copy them, one at a time, into a Sql Server Expressdatabase.This is definitely a good start, but it doesn't take care of theprimary keys or foreign keys. There appear to be procedures for thoseas well (sp_primarykeys, sp_foreignkeys), but I keep thinking theremust be an easier way.Which brings me to...Questions:Without having to buy additional software/tools, can I import thisAccess database without a lot of programming? If so, how?Thanks in advance,-Dan

Hi there,
Just wanted to ask is it possible to 'restore' a SQL Server 2005 backup file into SQL Server 2000.
What I mean is that we are being supplied with a SQL Server 2005 backup file, but we currently use 2000? Can we use this or do we need to upgrade etc?
Thanks.

I've never dealt with stored procedures much.. but i have a new database
created.. imported the tables, but the stored procedures didnt get copied
over..
Is there an easy way to export them.. perhaps to a .sql file ... then import
them or run a script on the other database..
I have never done much with the query window before, so i'm not sure how to
handle this.. as there are around 20 stored procedures that need imported..
Thanks for any tips...

Hello,
I am using the SSIS import/export wizard to import an Access table into a sql server 2005 database. The table has fields in Arabic (name, last name, etc.) and non-Arabic fields (gender, phone number, category, etc.).
The destination table has nvarchar columns.
After the import, I can see the Arabic characters in the destination table, but they appear in inverse order (from left to right). In Access (or Excel), Arabic fields appear as they should (from right to left) and non-Arabic fields are OK as well (from left to right).
If I do a simple copy-and-paste of a "correct" Arabic text into the table, the result is still wrong (inversed letters)...
Please help, I can't see what else to do.
Thank you.

Hi all, this has been bothering me for a few days now so i thought id better get some good advice!
I am going through the process of exporting a SQL Server 2005 DB to my hosting company for the first time. Initially I tried using SQL Server Management Studio to "Export" the DB, which has all of the membership functionality (by runnung aspnet_regsql.exe) and a few extra tables - nothing too complicated.
Exporting with SQL SMS did not seem to copy my stored procedures accross and this gave me problems.
I then tried SQL Server Database Publishing Wizard - as recommended by this post: http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2007/01/11/tip-trick-how-to-upload-a-sql-file-to-a-hoster-and-execute-it-to-deploy-a-sql-database.aspx
So this is my process:
1. set up empty DB on hosting server2. get admin to allow dbo permissions on this DB3. open SQL SDPW and create a script which will create an exact copy of my local DB4. run the script on my new empty Db on server...
when i do this i get the following errors:
Msg 208, Level 16, State 1, Procedure vw_aspnet_Users, Line 3Invalid object name 'dbo.aspnet_Users'.Msg 208, Level 16, State 1, Procedure vw_aspnet_MembershipUsers, Line 3Invalid object name 'dbo.aspnet_Membership'.Msg 208, Level 16, State 1, Procedure vw_aspnet_Profiles, Line 3Invalid object name 'dbo.aspnet_Profile'.Msg 208, Level 16, State 1, Procedure vw_aspnet_UsersInRoles, Line 3Invalid object name 'dbo.aspnet_UsersInRoles'.Msg 208, Level 16, State 1, Procedure vw_aspnet_WebPartState_User, Line 3Invalid object name 'dbo.aspnet_PersonalizationPerUser'.
When i look at the DB hosted on the server, it seems that all of my stored procedures are there. One thing I noticed was that some of my "Views" were in the "Tables" folder (i dont know if this matters)The result that this is having is that I do not get any errors, but the queries on my page where i reference one of my views (like vw_aspnet_MembershipUsers), the latest records are not appearing.I think that somehow my stored procedures are not referencing the correct views and tables maybe?Anyway - if anyone has come across this, please help me out (even if its just to say ive done something stupid )
