Export SQL Server 2005 query result to SQL INSERT statement?
Is there an easy way in SQL Server 2005 to export query results to a SQL INSERT statement? I'm thinking something along the lines of how you can use Database Explorer to script an existing stored procedure to a new query window.
We're looking to move some data from a dev DB to a production one; I know about linked servers but there's no way the DBA blackshirts will let us set that up.
A definitive, "Nope, you're boned," will suffice if it has to.
Edit: The table I want to insert into is not on the same database server. Witho开发者_如何转开发ut setting up a linked server, I can't do a select into.
Another colleague of mine came up with a fun solution.
1) Copy query results grid to Excel.
2) Add the SQL commands and parentheses/commas/tick marks in columns between values.
3) Copy grid to a text editor.
4) Find/replace the stuff they needed to change/fix, including extra whitespace.
5) Send SQL to DBA's.
And voila! Several hundred rows queryized. It's ugly as sin but it took less time than looking for a 'sane' way to do it. This happens infrequently enough to suffice as a solution. I do appreciate everyone's suggestions, though - and I do intend to explore them further.
Edit: I am still looking for ideas! I like stuff to be cleaner than having Excel drop a steamer into Notepad++.
If a script file is the only way to add data to your production server, it's easy enough to generate INSERT statements as the result set of a select statement. It's boring and tedious, though, so if you have to do it often, I'd agree with the others who recomend third party tools. If it's just a one-off, though, something like this should work.
select 'insert into MyTable (IntegerField, TextField)
values (' + convert(nvarchar(50),IntegerField) + ', ''' + TextField + ''');'
from MyTable
In SSMS, set "results to text" instead of "results to grid", and you'll get output that's easy to save in a text file and run as a script elsewhere; this, for example:
insert into MyTable (IntegerField, TextField)
values (1, 'a TextField value');
insert into MyTable (IntegerField, TextField)
values (23, 'another TextField value');
It's probably not very performant for large data sets, but given your restrictions it might be the easiest and simplest option.

Description: This procedure takes the data from a table and turns it into
an insert statement.
CAUTION!!! If you run this on a large table be prepared to wait a while!
Modified: add a comment here (date, who, comment)
Date Name Description
~~~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
07/11/03 Jane Added a @generateGO parameter to allow selection
07/11/03 Jane This procedure has an issue with NULLs....
07/11/03 Jane Deal with Identities
07/11/03 Jane Wrap all tablenames and columns with [ and ]
15/12/03 Jane For DateTimes covert as style 1 - to allow for mm/dd/yyy
16/12/03 Jane Get rid of rowcount
18/12/03 Jane Prevent single field tables having that field displayed twice
06/07/04 Jane Large money values get separeted with a comma - so specify convert
with 0 rather than 1
31/05/05 Jane Added default for GenerateGo and added ability to generate
Inserts for selected records based on the restriction
03/01/08 Jane Updated to cope with text and ntext. It converts to VARCHAR(8000) to allow quote escaping
Also copes with Nulls much better now.
07/01/08 Jane Now handles guids
07/01/08 Jane Forced collation to use database_default as was causing an error in some circumstances
15/01/08 Jane Dave reported issue with image column types as a comment on my blog
http://jane.dallaway.com/blog/2007/11/generate-sql-insert-statement-from.html#c9038036788352783369
So, ensured that all column types either work, or replace with NULL and add warning
23/01/08 Jane Ignore calculated columns. Can't migrate the data, so remove from the INSERT
Implemented a suggestion from Jon Green - 4R Systems Inc left on my blog post at
http://jane.dallaway.com/blog/2007/11/generate-sql-insert-statement-from.html#c2055936172890486440
to allow a choice of separate insert statements or a single statement using the UNION SELECT syntax.
New parameter @producesingleinsert used. When this is set to 0 it produces separate INSERT statements.
When set to 1 it produces a single statment using UNION SELECT
20/08/08 Jane New parameter @GenerateOneLinePerColumn added as suggested by Christian via comment on my blog post at
http://jane.dallaway.com/blog/2007/11/generate-sql-insert-statement-from.html?showComment=1219174920000#c6992035307857457643
Also made all string variables varchar(max). This means it no longer works on SQL 2000 - but to make it do so is just a case of
putting all varchar(max) to varchar(8000)
07/01/09 Jane New parameter @GenerateIdentityColumns added as suggestion by James Bradshaw to enable identity columns to not be scripted
and therefore rely on the database to populate the identities from scratch
16/02/09 Jane Continuation of work started on 20/08/08 - all remaining VARCHAR(8000)s removed and replaced with VARCHAR(max). So, no longer
an issue with text columns unless it is SQL Server 2000, in which case this stored procedure will need to have been updated.
16/04/09 Jane Add checking to see if the table specified actually exists - user error on my case when using the procedure
17/04/09 Jane Changed @tabledata to be nvarchar rather than varchar to allow for unicode
Added checking for data exceeding 8000 bytes and split the data based on CHAR(13) if this situation is seen.
This won't resolve it in all cases, and if it doesn't then a warning is displayed at the bottom of the generated code
08/06/09 Jane All strings are now output as N'<data>' rather than '<data>' to cope with extended character sets
Known Issues:
1) BLOBs can't be output
Usage:
exec spu_GenerateInsert @table ='users', @generateGo=0, @restriction='columna = x', @producesingleinsert=0, @debug=0, @GenerateOneLinePerColumn=0, @GenerateIdentityColumn=0
Version:
This version has been tested on SQL Server 2005. To make this work on SQL Server 2000, replace all instances of VARCHAR(max) with VARCHAR(8000). This will limit
the ability of export of text and XML columns to 8000 characters

You could use SELECT INTO and INSERT INTO SELECT, both methods are shown here
Edit: maybe I misunderstood your question, and you want to generate INSERT scripts? In that case you could use tools like Apex SQL, SQL Delta or SQL Scripter.
The BCP utility suggests itself -- dump the data out into a file, then push it back in on the other server.
Have you looked at moving the data using DTS (Data Transformation Services)? You can use this to export your data to file etc and then import it to your new database.
iandisme,
We are in the same boat. All database changes must be scripted out and then applied to QA and Prod by someone else (segregation of duties.) So we have a bunch of scripts that script out the insert statements or we just hand build them.
