Is this a once off operation or do you need to repeat it. One time, use the CSV method.
If it must be repeatable then you need to set up a service (WCF) between the databases, you should not connect an online database directly to a remote database.

thanks for solution
I need to connect and get all info every 2 days.
cause the data of that table change every 2 days.

Then you need to build a service between the databases, we use WCF.

i got this code :
but cannot run for SQLite :
i get this error in sqlite :
<code>SQLite error near "INTO" : syntax error </code>
<pre lang="sql">cmd.CommandText = @"SELECT top(5) IdAmlak, ParentId, NameOpp, Price, [Square],
OstanShahrMantagha, PhoneAddress, CountAmount
INTO Melk
FROM OPENDATASOURCE(
'SQLOLEDB',
'Data Source=217.66.216.77,1633;User ID=tinadbuser;Password=dbtin123ir'
).[CRM-CMS].dbo.tblTesting";</pre>

At a guess I would say SQL Lite does not support INTO so make the query like a normal insert statement.
Insert Melk (field, names, list) Select ...

Ok here is my issue. I know how to do a count, count distinct and all that.
I have a column in my table that has 3 different values(only three, never more), so every row that is entered with have one of those three values.
The values are,
Bundle
Bowed Board
Jam
I am trying to figure out how to write a query that will count how many times of EACH value there is in the table. ie... 55 bundles... 10 bowed boards.... 5 jams...
for some reason I just cant get this one in my head. any help to be had? I do need it to be a single query as it is going in a dataset for a SSRS report Matrix.

select sum(iif(FIELDNAME = 'Bundle', 1, 0)) as NumBundles,
sum(iif(FIELDNAME = 'Bowed Board', 1, 0)) as NumBowedBoards,
sum(iif(FIELDNAME = 'Jam', 1, 0)) as NumJams
from TABLENAME
One option that doesn't rely on any rollup or compute magic...

That didn't quite work but it did set me on the right train of thought and for that I thank you much.
Solved with a couple of simple views combined in a query and let the SSRS report handle the count..
And I can easily reuse the views in a couple of other reports for different level of management..

No worries... Glad someone's making progress today... I'm still in SQL hell... (See post below)

What is wrong with group by and count
Select Fieldname, Count(*)
from Tablename
Group By FieldName

The OP said they already knew about count, so I assumed they were wanting the three values on a single line...

 Missed that, it did seem too simplistic to me!

Hi
Its simple Use COUNT Function... like as follows
SELECT CAST(ISNULL(COUNT(ProdType),0) AS VARCHAR(10)) + ' '+ ProdType FROM ProdDtls GROUP BY ProdType

One of my clients has upgraded to 64bit SQL Server 2012. We have moved the test database there and I am having a bizarre issue that's doing my head in...
Even the most simple update query causes an error, which of course, is causing stored procedures to fall over...
update tbl_User
set USR_Email = 'myemail@domain.name.au'
where UserID = 5
causes the following error: "Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Procedure tbl_Userupdate, Line 53
Incorrect syntax near '@errorNumber'."
The strange part is that the query itself runs fine. Any suggestions? Perhaps a setting that's been missed by the sysadmin who did the installation?

Alright, so a massive facepalm moment...
Further testing revealed that the problem is with a trigger on the table that was system generated to handle table relationships, and the error raising code in the trigger is being handled differently by SQL 2012 (this code is legacy from many versions of SQL ago)... so if I fix the trigger, I fix the problem (one would assume).
FML.

I hate f***ing triggers spit for this exact reason, for some completely unknown reason you get an error that just does not make sense and if you are not in the habit of looking under that particular rock you can spend hours chasing down the issue. I allow audit triggers and absolutely none others, the audit triggers are generated with a script that will both remove and create them according to schema table.

These were in the system generated update and insert triggers (handling table relationships and cascades), auto generated by SQL Server about a decade ago when the system diagrams were created... any wonder I didn't think to look there!!

Especially if you are not in the habit of using the bloody things. I wonder how many versions they have upgraded through, I don't recall sql auto generating triggers.

I've two databases consider as OldVersion and NewVersion. What I would like to do is that I need to compare the database for DDL changes (schema changes such as column difference, datatype difference, table difference). I would like to compare and generate a script such a way that it will upgrade the OldVersion database same as NewVersion database.
This is not a straight way to do that. Say for example, if a column is FK, that column could not be altered. This is one constraint. Likewise what are the possible constraints to generate the script? How could I resolve them?
To generate the script for entire database in what order I've to work on. I look for answer such as Drop Index, Drop Constraints, Drop Columns or Alter Column, Alter Index, Add Contraints in particular order.
I know I've some tools in place for that. But I would like to generate it.
The question is lengthier one. Please bear with me and provide your solution.

We use Red-Gate for this and it uses the dependency relationships to generate the scrip. However on a large change it can screw up and needs to be broken down, I do the tables, then the views and then the procedures.

You mean that you suggesting to use the tool and not to suggest to write script for it?
|
|
|
|

Sorry I was not very clear, I use the tool and the generated script. IF it fails (it automatically rolls back the transaction) I then use a subset of the objects, starting with the tables. I repeat this till I get a successful merge. I then save that script and get the next subset, repeating until I get all the changes across to the target database.
At that point I have a set of scripts that can be run sequentially to successfully update the target database. This is a pain but it is better than hand coding which is how I used to do it!

I have a method that takes a SQL query and a file name, then converts that query into an XML-based Excel file. Works great. The code gets the schema of the query, and uses the column names to generate the column headers in Excel. This, too, works great.
The problem is aliasing the columns into the headers that I want. I am using this notation:
SELECT
"First Name" = view.MeaninglessColumnNameImposedBySystem1,
"Last Name" = view.MeaninglessColumnNameImposedBySystem2,
"Address 1" = view.MeaninglessColumnNameImposedBySystem3,
...
FROM LongViewName AS view
WHERE etc=@etc
Whether I have one column or 50, the query takes several minutes to run; the more data, the longer it takes. If I were to use SELECT *, with no aliasing, I can return the data in a few seconds, regardless of how many rows are returned.
I have also tried view.MeaninglessColumnNameImposedBySystem1 AS [First Name], which does not speed up the results.
Presumably, this is an optimization issue where * lets SQL make assumptions that it cannot when each column is aliased. Any suggestions on what I can do with the query to speed things up?
