| hii have a .sql file, which i can run using query analyzer. is there any other way to execute this file, like using a .bat file or .exe file. user should be able to execute this file without using query analyzer or any other database tools. i cannot call this from my main programe.this should be a self executable file. thankssuji |

| You can use OSQL from the command line, but other than that you will have to write a little VB application or somesuch that connects to the DB and runs the script.Or provide a TextBox in your application that they can past it in to - but then they could paste any SQL in there, which might not be a good thing!Kristen |

.SQL file is not an executable file...It's just file containing bunch of SQL statements. You can not execute it by itself (Otherwise why would anybody bother to purchase SQL Server  )You should use OSQL utility to execute this file.Harsh AthalyeIndia."Nothing is Impossible" |
