You can export using bcp. The syntax is something like this:bcp "select top 1000 * from DBName.dbo.TableName for xml auto" queryout filename.txt -T -c There are various other options you can specify - http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms162802.aspxYou can specify additional options for the xml auto clause. For example:1. If you want a root element, specify the option root('YourRoot')2. If you would like the columns to be elements instead of attributes, specify elements option.bcp "select top 1000 * from DBName.dbo.TableName for xml auto, root('YourRoot'), elements" queryout filename.txt -T -cYou will need to run bcp either from a command line window or using xp_cmdshell. |
