Using T-Sql, how can I insert from one table on a remote server into another table on my local server?
- by GenericTypeTea
Given the remote server 'Production' (currently accessible via an IP) and the local database 'Development', how can I run an INSERT into 'Development' from 'Production' using T-SQL?
I'm using MS SQL 2005 and the table structures are a lot different between the two databases hence the need for me to manually write some migration scripts.
UPDATE:
T-SQL really isn't my bag. I've tried the following (not knowing what I'm doing):
EXEC sp_addlinkedserver
@server = N'20.0.0.1\SQLEXPRESS',
@srvproduct=N'SQL Server' ;
GO
EXEC sp_addlinkedsrvlogin '20.0.0.1\SQLEXPRESS', 'false',
'Domain\Administrator', 'sa', 'saPassword'
SELECT * FROM [20.0.0.1\SQLEXPRESS].[DatabaseName].[dbo].[Table]
And I get the error:
Login failed for user ''. The user is
not associated with a trusted SQL
Server connection.
