In that particular instance, I'd say more than one person can "own" a car/house/whatever. Divorce proceedings often seem to support that concept.

In that case, either a Union with "fake" column names, or exporting the column names once, then the data for them and appending it, will work just fine.

If the number and type of columns doesn't change, but you want the column headers to change, you might also be able to include "column headers" as a row of...

The error you're getting per a prior post is that it can't open a distributed transaction. Have you checked the DTC is running on that machine?

The problem I see with that (Joe's) query is it assumes collation and values will always produce the Y result. Can you be certain of that? If, for...

First, that will only work if you're only inserting one type of CartwallID at a time. It also won't work if you insert multiple rows in one transaction, because...

I thought of an interesting method you could use for this if you use the RowVersion/Timestamp data type in your tables. Use a Dense_Rank() query that selects a union...

You should be able to simply select the count from the table based...

There's an option in SSIS to delay validation of the data sources till they are called. I've used that to avoid the error about design-time vs run-time.
