Here is the situation.

The company I work for, uses a MRP software (Material Requirements Planning) which use a MS SQL 2000 DB. Prior to SQL it was an access DB which was converted to a SQL db.

Sometime ago, the DB server crashed and we needed to reinstall everything in a new server.

We restored the SQL backup but the tables structure for some reason has been changed. Now it is missing PKey for example.

This MRP software has a tool to create a blank DB on SQL with all structures needed, PKey etc. When I create this blank DB and import the data, the SQL import the data and the tables structure.

How can I import only the data from a DB to another without changing anything else?


Thanks

Thieme

Give this a try:
Start SQL Server Enterprise Manager
connect to your server with that new created Database
right click on that database and choose -- all task -- import... and step through the wizard (with open eyes).


No, you're never too old to Yak'n'Roll if you're too young to die.
