Hi all,
My program is a central data processing application built in ASP.
We have different companies that use different web pages on another web
application (from different countries) to load some inventory data
(merchandise - clothes).
Here is my requirement: Load different types of data (in different
formats) into a common set of tables, to do this I have to first
filter, do lookup's, use cross-reference tables on this data and then
load it into a couple of tables.
Since data is so different everytime, I want to have one main stored
procedure in which I can build the table (I know the format of this
data so I know what columns/types to create) into which I will feed the
data.
After this I will create other stored procs/udf's that reference this
table (probably from the same main stored proc) 'cleanse' the data
before loading into the actual tables.
How feasible is my approach? (if you can call it one :-) I do not want
to have seperate tables for each country, that will be too many and so
this plan...
If not any other ideas will be really helpful.
thanks much

This is a very common requirement and there is a whole industry of
solutions for it. Microsoft's offering is Integration Services (or DTS
prior to SQL Server 2005). Since that comes free with the database
(Standard and Enterprise) it's the obvious place to start. http://www.microsoft.com/sql/technol...n/default.mspx

Whenever possible please post enough code to reproduce your problem.
Including CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements usually helps.
State what version of SQL Server you are using and specify the content
of any error messages.

That seems to be right, but we are still using SQL Server 2000 (dont
think we will move to 2005 soon)
