Basically, I need a current user table in two databases,
without having to add new users to two separate dbs.
I'm trying to set up a scheduled event that will delete the
User table from database A, and copy a table of the same name from
database B into database A. I'm assuming that since I'm using two
separate databases that I can't use a stored procedure.
Anyone have any suggestions? I tried to use a DTS wizard to
copy the contents of dbA.table into dbB.table, but it vomited on a
primary key error.
Also I don't see how it didn't work using DTS. The primary
key should copy over fine as long as you drop and recreate the
table before you start to copy the data over.
Trevor -- I didn't drop and recreate the first time. The
second time (just now, after your first post), I did drop and
recreate -- only there are foreign key constraints. Is there a way
to drop all FK constraints, drop table, recreate, and then recreate
the FKs?
Got it done! I did an import and choose "between two SQL
databases," and that allowed me to import the keys along with the
tables. I was able to schedule that to run every night at midnight,
and in the even that someone can't wait that long, I can mess with
them manually.
THANK YOU, guys. I'm a new CF developer, and I'm more than
daunted by what I was left to work with.
