Put them in a temp or perm table and then Bulk Copy them out.

Hi, putting my data into a temp table is a good idea. But I go this problem:

Because my data is pieced together from around 30 tables. After concating those data, each row's length might be around 32000 chars.

When I tried to create a temp table with couple of columns of varchar(8000), I got the warning:

the table mv_temp_table has been created but its maximum row size (32340) execeeds the maximum number of bytes per row (8060).

INSERT or UPDATE of a row in this table will fail if the resulting row length exceeds 8060 bytes.

Any suggestion on the workaround is appreciated.

Use a text datatype or multiple tables/rows. Not sure how this will work with a bulk copy out, have to test it.

I created a table with a column of text type.

Insert some data. BCP works fine!

Thank you very much.

You are welcome. Out of curiosity, how many columns are you outputting?
