Hi,

I have to load the below XML into SQL server 2000 table.

create table temp
(
id int,
cycle_no varchar(36),
pdm varchar(1)
)

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<batch>
<job id="100360001">
<cycle_no type="string">36</cycle_no>
<PDM type="string">C</PDM>
</job>
<job id="100360002">
<cycle_no type="string">36</cycle_no>
<PDM type="string">C</PDM>
</job>
</batch>

How can I load attribute value into temp table id column??
I tried using SQLXMLBulkLoad(by creating VB script),but it didn't insert the data into the table.

use OPENXML

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms186918.aspx

something like


DECLARE @idoc int, @doc varchar(1000); 
SET @doc ='<batch>
<job id="100360001">
<cycle_no type="string">36</cycle_no> 
<PDM type="string">C</PDM> 
</job>
<job id="100360002">
<cycle_no type="string">36</cycle_no> 
<PDM type="string">C</PDM>
</job>
</batch>'; 

--Create an internal representation of the XML document.
EXEC sp_xml_preparedocument @idoc OUTPUT, @doc; 


INSERT temp (id,cycle_no,pdm)
SELECT *
FROM   OPENXML (@idoc, '/batch/job',2) 
         WITH (ID       int         '@id', 
               cycle_no  varchar(36) './cycle_no', 
               pdm   varchar(1)    './PDM');

EXEC sp_xml_removedocument @idoc;

I tried SQLXMLBulkLoad option by creating the mapping file and VB script, its not giving any error when I run the VB script and not loading the data into temp table.Here is my mapping file and VB script

Customers.xml :

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<batch>
<job id="100360003">
<cycle_no type="string">36</cycle_no>
<PDM type="string">C</PDM>
</job>
<job id="100360004">
<cycle_no type="string">36</cycle_no>
<PDM type="string">C</PDM>
</job>
</batch>

Customermapping.xml :

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<Schema xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-data"
xmlns:dt="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml:datatypes"
xmlns:sql="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-sql" >

<AttributeType name="Id" />
<ElementType name="Cycle_no" dt:type="string" />
<ElementType name="PDM" dt:type="string" />

<ElementType name="batch" sql:is-constant="1">
</ElementType>

<ElementType name="job" sql:relation="temp_xml">
<attribute type="Id" sql:field="Id" />
<element type="Cycle_no" sql:field="Cycle_no" />
<element type="PDM" sql:field="PDM" />
</ElementType>

</Schema>

Insertcustomers.vbs

Set objBL = CreateObject("SQLXMLBulkLoad.SQLXMLBulkLoad")
objBL.ConnectionString = "provider=XXXXXXXX;data source=XXXXXXXX;database=XXXXXX;uid=XXXXXX;pwd=XXXXX"
objBL.ErrorLogFile = "c:\error.log"
objBL.Execute "c:\customermapping.xml", "c:\customers.xml"
Set objBL = Nothing
