Default ODBC Imports of entire Database - 10-10-2006 , 11:13 AM






I would like to find a way of automating a Database copy and update from an
existing server. I am only able to connect via ODBC to old server to read
and cannot modify anything on the old server.
Is there a way with SSIS to copy that database?
I have as yet been unable to use SQL Management to view a list of tables
even, but with MS Query (in office) I have been able to list all of the
tables. I would like to pull all of this data into SQL2005 in order to do
some analysis on it but just don't seem to see any answer other than setting
up a package for each and every table. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated
as I am still new to the SQL Admin world.

Hi ,

My understanding of your issue is: You want to use dts to copy data from
another SQL database to current Sql 2005.

As you know, in SQL 2005, we have SSIS. You can use Import and Export
Wizard to achieve your purpose.

Hope this helps.

Using SSIS it does not give me the option of importing the entire database.
It gives me a chance to script only and I do not know just how to get the
entire database listed and create the appropriate tables based on the input.
Hopefully I am more clear this time.
What I need to do using SSIS is:
Get the list of tables and import all of them creating tables in SQL if
needed.
I also need to be able to update the tables daily preferrably using an SSIS
package so that we can maintain the SQL base and not have to recreate it at
each use.

I am using SSIS but it does not allow me to choose by tables. The only
option I can bring up is to create a query to bring in the information.
I need to be able to pull all of the tables from the ODBC source and update
them at will or scheduled updates.

Hello,

-- Get the list of tables and import all of them creating tables in SQL if
needed.

When you run Import and Export Wizard, it will enable you to import the
entire database from source server. I have tested on my machine. Check the
article:

How to: Start the SQL Server Import and Export Wizard
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms140052.aspx

Creating Packages Using the SQL Server Import and Export Wizard
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms141209.aspx

-- I also need to be able to update the tables daily preferrably using an
SSIS package so that we can maintain the SQL base and not have to recreate
it at each use.

When you created a package, you can schedule it to run any time you want.

When I run the wizard it does not give me the option to copy the entire
database. It disables that option. What is the best way to list all of the
tables so that I can script an import? I am using the ODBC .Net connector to
connect to the other database.

I can schedule SSIS packages but can't get them to just import the data
without scripting table by table.

Please Help.

Hi,

In every database there is a system view called sys.tables. You can select
all tables from this view.

Thanks.

Creating Packages Using the SQL Server Import and Export Wizard
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms141209.aspx

-- I also need to be able to update the tables daily preferrably using
an
SSIS package so that we can maintain the SQL base and not have to
recreate
it at each use.

When you created a package, you can schedule it to run any time you
want.

Using SSIS it does not give me the option of importing the entire
database.
It gives me a chance to script only and I do not know just how to get
the
entire database listed and create the appropriate tables based on the
input.
Hopefully I am more clear this time.
What I need to do using SSIS is:
Get the list of tables and import all of them creating tables in
SQL if
needed.
I also need to be able to update the tables daily preferrably using
an
SSIS
package so that we can maintain the SQL base and not have to recreate
it
at
each use.

Hi ,

My understanding of your issue is: You want to use dts to copy data
from
another SQL database to current Sql 2005.

As you know, in SQL 2005, we have SSIS. You can use Import and
Export
Wizard to achieve your purpose.

Hope this helps.

I would like to find a way of automating a Database copy and
update
from
an
existing server. I am only able to connect via ODBC to old
server to
read
and cannot modify anything on the old server.
Is there a way with SSIS to copy that database?
I have as yet been unable to use SQL Management to view a list of
tables
even, but with MS Query (in office) I have been able to list all
of
the
tables. I would like to pull all of this data into SQL2005 in
order
to
do
some analysis on it but just don't seem to see any answer other
than
setting
up a package for each and every table. Any help would be GREATLY
appreciated
as I am still new to the SQL Admin world.

Don
