I think Ajas was referring to the database names (assuming that each DSN was related to a different database) and if you are using SQL server, you should be able to write an insert query from from database to the other. I know this would work in Enterprise manager but since DSN's are specific to a database, it may or may not work in this situation. You would definitely need to ensure that the SQL login that the DSN is using would need access to both databases (like the sa login). So this may or may not work: <cfquery name="PSAD" datasource="DS1">
Select * into [databasename].[ownershipname].[tablename] FROM [databasename].[ownershipname].tablename] </cfquery> Assuming the DS1 is using and SQL login that has access to both databases. This might work. I don't really have the time to try it but someone else might ... Dusty _____ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tepfer, Seth Sent: Friday, July 13, 2007 10:35 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [ACFUG Discuss] moving tables across data sources From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ajas Mohammed Here is my assumption for your scenario. Lets say datasource1 is for database A, and the other datasource2 is for database B. If you want to copy a table from datasource1 to datasource2, I would do this in SQL Server(I dont know what db you are using) <cfquery datasource="#dsn#" select * into B..testdummy from A..testdummy </cfquery> I havent done this in CF, but I do this a lot in Query Analyzer. Helps me create a table with same definition/structure in another database. If you dont want to import data, then you can add a where clause like this Okay, let me confirm I understand. <cfquery name="PSAD" datasource="DS1"> Select * FROM table1 </cfquery> <cfquery name="PSA2" datasource="DS2"> Select * FROM table2 </cfquery> PSAD.RecordCount = 10,032 PSA2.RecordCount = 0 Column Names are the same. You are saying I can do . <cfquery name="PSA2" datasource="DS2"> Select * into ds2..table2 FROM ds1..table1 </cfquery> Hmmm. Gave me an error. ------------------------------------------------------------- Annual Sponsor - Figleaf Software <http://www.figleaf.com> To unsubscribe from this list, manage your profile @ http://www.acfug.org?fa=login.edituserform For more info, see http://www.acfug.org/mailinglists Archive @ http://www.mail-archive.com/discussion%40acfug.org/ List hosted by FusionLink <http://www.fusionlink.com> ------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------- Annual Sponsor FigLeaf Software - http://www.figleaf.com To unsubscribe from this list, manage your profile @ http://www.acfug.org?fa=login.edituserform For more info, see http://www.acfug.org/mailinglists Archive @ http://www.mail-archive.com/discussion%40acfug.org/ List hosted by http://www.fusionlink.com -------------------------------------------------------------
