SQLParameter with bulk insert.

I am having a function which accepts Database parameter array, and it
inserts to the database inside a loop.

Note:

inside the loop i am changing the values of the parameter array .

it works fine if the loop executes for only one time, but if the loop
executes more than one time i am getting the error : "field xyz is already
contained by another SqlParameterCol lection"

Function abc(Parameter_A rray)

begin loop

alter Parameter_Array ' values

Create command object

Add parameters to the command object //i am getting
error at this point,if this is executed for the second time .

Execute

command.paramet ers.close();

set connection,comm and etc.. to null

end

Could you post actual code rather than pseudo code, what you think you are
doing might differ subtly from what you are actually doing with the code.

"bulk insert" seems to me that the command is identical, just the
parameter values change.
I think it's more efficient (and probably solves your problem) to
rewrite like this:

create command object
create parameters with dummy values, add to command
set & open connection
begin loop
change param values
execute
end loop
close connection

Hello, I am trying to load a simple tab-delimited data file to SQL Server. I created a format file to go with it, since the data file differs from the destination table in number of columns. When I execute the query, I get an error saying that only sysadmin or bulkadmin roles are allowed to use the BULK INSERT statement. So, I proceeded with the Enterprise Manager to grant myself those roles. However, I could not find sysadmin or...

I'm also having problems getting the bulk insert to work. I don't know anything about it except what I've gleened from BOL but I'm not seeming to get anywhere...Hopefully there is some little (or big) problem with my code that someone can point out that may save me some time. TIA CBL

Hi all, We have an application through which we are bulk inserting rows into a view. The definition of the view is such that it selects columns from a table on a remote server. I have added the servers using sp_addlinkedserver on both database servers. When I call the Commit API of oledb I get the following error: Error state: 1, Severity: 19, Server: TST-PROC22, Line#: 1, msg:

Can anyone explain me why it is neccesary to include SqlDbType to the SqlParameter. In every example I see, it is done, but no one explaines why. I have for example a date I want to save into my Sql Server database through a stored procedure-call. In the database it is defined as a SmallDateTime. Every 3 methods in the client-code below gives the same (and correct) result. So why is it that important? dim param As SqlParameter

I want to be able to generate SQL statements that will go through a list of data, effectively row by row, enquire on the database if this exists in the selected table- If it exists, then the colums must be UPDATED, if not, they must be INSERTED. Logically then, I would like to SELECT * FROM <TABLE> WHERE ....<Values entered here>, and then IF FOUND UPDATE <TABLE> SET .... <Values entered here> ELSE INSERT INTO <TABLE> VALUES <Values...

Right now I develop an application to retrieve over 30,000 records from a binary file and then load them into a SQL Server DB. So far I load those records one by one, but the performance is very poor: it takes more than 6 hours to finish the loading. So could I make use of the bulk-insert mechanism of SQL Server to reduce the loading time in C# codes? or other performance improvement solutions?

We have sp's in place that do BULK INSERTS from txt files into the tables. This works fine, however they have asked us to add a field that identifies accounting ctr. The only thing that identifies accounting ctr is the last three letters of the text file being used for the BULK INSERT. How would you suggest that I do this? Is there a way to add a default value to the .fmt or schema files for the text fields, or in the BULK INSERT...
