Here’s a quick script to export table data:
if exists ( select * from sysobjects where name = 'ExportData_P' ) drop proc ExportData_P go CREATE PROC dbo.ExportData_P ( @tableName varchar(500), @where varchar(5000) = '(1=1)' ) AS BEGIN SET NOCOUNT ON DECLARE @sql varchar(8000) DECLARE @fieldList varchar(8000) DECLARE @valueList varchar(8000) SELECT @fieldList = '', @valueList = '' DECLARE @cols TABLE ( column_name nvarchar(250), data_type varchar(250) ) DECLARE @c nvarchar(250), @data_type varchar(250) INSERT INTO @cols select column_name, data_type from information_Schema.columns where table_name = @tableName WHILE EXISTS ( SELECT TOP 1 * FROM @cols ) BEGIN SELECT TOP 1 @c = column_name, @data_type = data_type FROM @cols SELECT @fieldList = @fieldList + @c + ', ', @valueList = @valueList + CHAR(13) + 'case when ' + @c + ' is null then ''NULL'' else '''''''' + ' + case when @data_type in ('text','ntext','char', 'nvarchar', 'varchar' ) then ' REPLACE ( REPLACE ( REPLACE ( ' else '' end + 'IsNull ( convert(varchar' + ( -- change this section to pass the length of varchar to convert case when @data_type in ( 'uniqueidentifier' ) then '(50)' when @data_type in ( 'text', 'ntext' ) then '(8000)' else '' end ) + ', ' + @c + '), '''' )' + -- end is null case when @data_type in ('text','ntext','char', 'nvarchar', 'varchar' ) then ', CHAR(39), CHAR(39)+CHAR(39) ), CHAR(13), '''' + CHAR(13) + ''''), CHAR(9), '''' + CHAR(9) + '''') ' else '' end + ' + '''''''' end + '', '' + ' DELETE FROM @cols WHERE column_name = @c END SELECT @fieldList = LEFT ( @fieldList, LEN(@fieldList)-1 ), @valueList = LEFT ( @valueList, LEN(@valueList)-1 ) SELECT @sql = 'select ''insert into ' + @tableName + ' (' + @fieldList + ') ' + ' VALUES ( ''+ ' + left ( @valueList, len(@valueList)-5) + ''') '' from ' + @tableName + ' WHERE ' + @where -- into [#mcoe_temp_export' + @tableName + '] print @sql EXEC ( @sql ) --EXEC ( 'select * from [#mcoe_temp_export' + @tableName + ']' ) SET NOCOUNT OFF END go exec dbo.ExportData_P 'tablename'
