DTS text file export missing records

DF
Hello,

We have a query which returns ~2.8 million rows. This same query is
used in a DTS package, which exports to a text file. The number of
rows in this text file, however, is ~2.7 million rows (I'm rounding of
course.) So a good chunk of data vanished in the export it appears.

Using SQL Server 7.0 on Windows 2000.

Anyone see bugs w/ DTS text exports for very large amounts of data?

Thanks,
DF

I have used DTS to export bigger tables and never had any problems.

You could try bcp to see how many rows it extracts.

Is there any pattern to the rows that it does not extract, eg ones
near the end, those with a particlar value (perhaps strings containing
a control character)?

Our production database in an exported textfil runs about 60 MB. Compressed that's about 9 MB. I'm trying to import the export into another machine running FC3 and mySQL 11.18, and it appears as though the file may be too big! When I try to do it via command line: mysql -u root --host=localhost printing < ./printing.txt It eventually errors out with a "syntax error on line X" and only about

Hello, I have data in an Access table that I would like to export to multiple HTML tables. I would like to split the data in the Access table (about 92,000 records) into multiple HTML tables/files to reduce download time and bandwidth usage on my web server. That way, the user can select a particular page to download instead of downloading a page with all of the records. I would like to set a limit of only 500 records per file.

Hi, I'm trying to come up with a way of generating 'warning' e-mails based on specific criteria within an Access (2003) database. I've decided to do this by exporting specific information to a text file which then gets parsed by a simple shell program and processed by a 3rd party SMTP engine (Blat). With my VERY limited knowledge of VB and Access coding, this is what I've come up with so far:-

I need to copy records from several different tables into one text file. Although the tables have many common fields, they also contain several that are different from table to table. I can copy and paste the dissimilar records manually into the text file, so it would seem that should be possible to do programatically. I set up export specifications for each of the twelve tables and tried to export each to the same text file. This...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
