Hii,

I am using Bulk Copy cmd to copy data to text file..
but getting syntax error as :
"Incorrect syntax near 'queryout'."

I query is as below...

bcp "SELECT * FROM payroll..EmployeeMaster" queryout Emp.txt -U payroll -P payroll432 -c

Can anybody tell me where is the mistake...?

bcp is a command line tool. I think you are trying to run this command from inside Query Analyzer.

You forgot the -S parameter to indicate which server you want to connect to.
