Hi,

I have only been working with SQL for short time. My question is probably a basic one but I would appreciate the assistance!

The scenario is I have two different tables AVCfids (on ACC database)& AVCfids (on ACC.archive database). I am trying to write a command in SQL server agent (jobs) to transfer the data on a daily basis from AVCfids to ACC.archives. The script I have created but is not working is:

Database: ACC_archives

Select * into avcfids
from server.acc.dbo.avcfids

Any feedback would be welcomed.

Regards Jeff

You need to be more specific than "The script I have created but is not working is"

Dinakar,

When I try to execute the command in SQL server agent/jobs, I receive the following error message:

Execution of job failed 'avcordersdu' failed.

I am trying to transfer all the data from one table to anohter.

When you look into the job history, what is the exact error message? What is 'avcordersdu'? Does the table avcfids already exist in the archive DB?

Are those tables in same db on the server? If so, why use four-part name? If not, did you create linked server?
