Why a simple DTS doesn't work to migrate tables from a server to another ? How can you do this without doing a global import ?? Thanks a lot for your answers.

IT works fine using DTS, you can add rows to existing or overwrite existing, if you give us some more detail on what the problem is, maybe we can help. ------------- http://baumannphoto.com" rel="nofollow - Blog | http://mpgtracker.com" rel="nofollow - MPG Tracker |

When you copy from a distant server to an other, the copy is impossible for the tables : Author, DateTimeFormat, Group, Guestname, Smut. Error message for instance : Error : Violation on Primary Key Constraint 'PK_tblAuthor_1D114BD1' Cannot insert duplicate key in object "tbl_Author" Thanks for your help |

You need to click on the Transform button and enable Identity Insert
for that table, also make sure to import the tables in the right order
so there is no key violation i.e. if you import threads before authores
you get a violation becuase the Author_ID does not exist for a thread
you are trying to import so will fail.

Thank you for this. I knew "enable Identity Insert" but I discover the problem of the right order. It's evident ! |
