Executing cmd file with isqlw command imbedded, want to change output file delimiter

  • I am running isqlw in scheduled command files. I have many vendors I SFTP files to within those command files. They require different output delimiters. Can you change the SQL Analyzer configuration from TAB to PIPE delimiter dynamically in the command file?

  • Use BCP for this... and use OSQL instead of ISQL...

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
