| Hello All.I just made some huge changes to a database on the development computer. However, I want to transfer all of the information from the Employees table in the old DB to the new DB (no changes made on that table).Can anyone point me in the right direction? |

| 1. Either you can add 2nd server as linked server and use normal INSERT statement to copy the data2. Make use of SSIS package to transfer table data from one server to another3. Use BCP to export data from one server and import into another if the data volume is hugeHarsh AthalyeIndia."The IMPOSSIBLE is often UNTRIED" |
