Hello,
I have a rather large table in MS SQL 2000 that I'm writing reports in
Crystal from, but I'm unsure how to get the various data files (from
different departments) into the table. Below is a small chunk of the
table:
DeptCode;Type;AveMonthVolume;WorkedFTE;TotHours;Be nefits
I'm getting data from multiple places, but as I import the data, I
want it to populate the table with DeptCode and Type being the primary
keys.
If someone sends me the following file:
DeptCode;Type;AveMonthVolume;WorkedFTE
1000;Budget;100;200
1010;Target;233;433
And I get the following file from another source:
DeptCode;Type;TotHours;Benefits
1000;Budget;433;400
1010;Target;33;43
I want a simple way to import all this into the table so it looks like
this:
DeptCode;Type;AveMonthVolume;WorkedFTE;TotHours;Be nefits
1000;Budget;100;200;433;400
1010;Target;233;433;33;43
The data will be coming in delimited text and in Excel format. I
assume I can import his into MS SQL Enterprise Manager directly, but I
can't find any simple way of running in update query to import my
data. Also, I'd hate to use MS Access as the middle-man if at all
possible... but if this is the only option, I'll do it.
Does anyone have other suggestions? Above is only a small example...
the table has about 25 columns with various data I'll be collecting
from 3-4 departments, so it's a hodge podge of data to combine into
one report.
Thanks for any suggestions or ideas in solving this. Thanks in
advance...
Alex.
