I have a SQL file which has text like below. I am trying to figure out how to run it and tried thru Query Anaylzer. When I try to run it, it says "[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]COUNT field incorrect or syntax error" anyone have any ideas?


# --------------------------------------------------------

#
# Table structure for table `FORUM_ACTIVE_USERS`
#

CREATE TABLE `FORUM_ACTIVE_USERS` (
  `MEMBER_ID` int(11) default NULL,
  `AU_IP` varchar(40) default NULL,
  `AU_LOGINTIME` varchar(100) default NULL,
  `AU_LASTACTIVETIME` varchar(100) default NULL,
  `AU_LASTPAGE` varchar(250) default NULL,
  `AU_QUERYSTRING` text,
  `AU_USER_AGENT` text
) TYPE=MyISAM;

#
# Dumping data for table `FORUM_ACTIVE_USERS`
#

# --------------------------------------------------------

#
# Table structure for table `FORUM_ADS_CATEGORY`
#

#####CREATE TABLE `FORUM_ADS_CATEGORY` (
#####  `ID` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
#####  `CATEGORY_NAME` varchar(50) NOT NULL default '',
#####  `DESCRIPTION` text,
#####  PRIMARY KEY  (`ID`)
#####) TYPE=MyISAM AUTO_INCREMENT=11 ;

#
# Dumping data for table `FORUM_ADS_CATEGORY`
#

INSERT INTO `FORUM_ADS_CATEGORY` VALUES (7, 'Jeep in vendita', '');
INSERT INTO `FORUM_ADS_CATEGORY` VALUES (8, 'Parti usate', 'qualsiasi componente usato vi avanzi');
INSERT INTO `FORUM_ADS_CATEGORY` VALUES (9, 'Richieste parti/pezzi/jeep', 'qui le vostre richieste');
INSERT INTO `FORUM_ADS_CATEGORY` VALUES (10, 'extra Jeep - varie', 'tutto quello che non č jeep..');

Don't you want to be running that against a mySQL Database rather than a SQL Server ? its a mySQL dump file.

Just use the SQL wizard to import, provided you have your DSN/ODBC set up for the database in mySQL. Real simple.

Well I have tried to connect to the mySql database and the guy told me that I can not connect to it from outside their network which i thought was odd, they just have the web based admin section for it where i could export that script.

Someone suggested that I should install mySql and then import this file into mysql and then transfer it in MS Sql. This just seems like so much work and I would think their would be a much easier way.

all you need is the ODBC and then create a DSN and use the import wizard in SQL Server.

I can not even ping the IP Address of the mySql database because every request is timed out. I have mySql Control Center (http://www.mysql.com/products/mysqlcc/index.html) and I can not connect to it thru that either. So all I can really go with is one of these .sql files.

Or install your own mysql server quickly to do it on, only takes a few minutes to set it up really. Or alternatively covert the SQL by hand to MS SQL syntax. Is it a Snitz portal your trying to import ? maybe someone who already has that version running on MS SQL could do a SQL Dump for you.

Well I have it all converted into a SQL file to run in Query Analyzer I get the following error...

Cannot insert explicit value for identity column in table 'FORUM_ADS_CATEGORY' when IDENTITY_INSERT is set to OFF.

Do I have to go thru each table and and set the Identity to No? That would take enough work itself to go thru all the tables.

Just add it to your script

SET IDENTITY_INSERT table_name ON
GO

Thank you that worked great, I used that and then after all the inserts of the records did

SET IDENTITY_INSERT table_name OFF

Only problem I have now is all the records of posts that have 's in them are causing problems with the import script. Looks like I will have to go thru each line and look at the messages

Yea but starting to look thru the 49,000 line insert file shows way to many 's in the data that would have to be changed to '' I need to figure out a way to use phpMyAdmin to export the data and move it into a new mySql that I can actually use DTS to transfer the data into MSSql

Why not just run the SQL File through an ASP Script that does replaces for you ? use FSO to read it in line by line and do replaces in appropriate places.

Well the reason why I am not sure about that is because the record sorta looks like this.

'this is the first column','column 2','more column's','last column'

so the only way i could think about doing it that i guess it to make sure its not the first or last character on the line and then before or after it doesnt have a ,
