| You can run DOS commands using xp_cmdshell. So if you can do it with DOS, then yes.Tara |

| BCP out the file and write a program that can transfer it over HTTPS that is executed by xp_cmdshell.Michael<Yoda>Use the Search page you must. Find the answer you will.</Yoda> |

| I think we are telling you that SQL server can't natively do this. You'll need something outside of SQL server to do this. Be it a COM object that's called via sp_OACreate or an EXE that's called via xp_cmdshell, you'll need to have SQL server talk to something outside of SQL server.Michael<Yoda>Use the Search page you must.
