Hi everybody,

Im doing a lot of sql development and my scripts are in general very large, I am thinking about distributing them in different files.
Therefore, I was wondering about the possibility of executing a script that reside in different files from the 'Query Analyzer'.
For example , from the query analyzer:

exec(c:/MyScripts/MySpecificScript)
go

Is there a way to do the latter?

Thank you for your help

Can't think of a way to do that, but you could write a Command Line BATCH file that uses OSQL to run the scripts from their files, instead of using Query Analyser

Hi Kristen,

I was also thinking about using the xp_cmdshell proc.

You could do that, but you'll have to program up a solution.

If you just have a list of files you want to execute then I reckon that OSQL will be easier - it will handle putting all the error messages in separate files and all that sort of stuff.
