Hi All,

I got two separate copies of Table 'MyTable' on database 'myDB' running on two servers; ServerX and ServerY - both SQL Server 2000+SP4. i.e. ServerX.MyDB.MyTable and ServerY.MyDB.MyTable

I need to append all the records of 'MyTable' on serverX to the copy of 'MyTable' on server Y so that I have a complete records set.

I have tried using the data-export/import wizard - which seems to run OK, but the record count is still indicating the old totals on destination server.

Is there another way I can copy the data over.??

Create a linked server on the server you want to import to. Then simply run an INSERT ... SELECT using the four part name to select the data from the table on the linked server.

server.database.owner.table
