If you are populating table A from a flat file, using a Data flow Task. Once table A is populated , use an SQL task to populate Table B from Table A. |

you can use lookup task to lookup first table and get pk value from it based on a matching field value |

Im not populating from a flat file but from another Database table, once Table A is populated how would I use an SQL task to populate B from A. I cannot simply have:select Idfrom TableAWHERE NOT EXISTS ( a foreign key in TableB)Because sometimes there may be legitimate reasons why there will not be a TableA foreign key in TableB so the list from the query above will simply grow and grow (not ideal as the table row numbers are in the millions) |
