  • Reply To: Logon failure: the user has not been granted the requested logon type at this co

    The error tells you MOST of what you need to know - the user doesn't have access to log into the database. Your next step will be to log into...

    The above is all just my opinion on what you should do. 
    As with all advice you find on a random internet forum - you shouldn't blindly follow it.  Always test on a test server to see if there is negative side effects before making changes to live!
    I recommend you NEVER run "random code" you found online on any system you care about UNLESS you understand and can verify the code OR you don't care if the code trashes your system.

  • Reply To: Only getting few records into destination table

    So, based on what you have said, your JOIN syntax is filtering out the data.

    Data corruption is a tricky thing to correct and can result in larger problems down the road.
