Running .Sql file from command prompt


In this article I am demonstrating the running the .sql files form command prompt.

Step -1
create the table using the sql management studio.

CREATE TABLE tbl_Student
(
ID INT IDENTITY(1,1) PRIMARY KEY,
Fname VARCHAR(100),
Lname VARCHAR(100),
Salary INT
)

Step-2

INSERT INTO tbl_Student (Fname,LName,Salary) VALUES('Rakesh','Kalluri',10000)
INSERT INTO tbl_Student (Fname,LName,Salary) VALUES('Srujan','Kumar',15000)
INSERT INTO tbl_Student (Fname,LName,Salary) VALUES('Raju','Bhai',17000)
INSERT INTO tbl_Student (Fname,LName,Salary) VALUES('Dany','Mark',18000)

The above script file is saved in Desktop with the file name of Student.sql . The file is saved in desktop now just we need to run the file from command prompt.

Step-3

Go to run - -> Type CMD - → Click OK














Then command prompt will be opened.

Step -4

Syntax:

sqlcmd -S [Servername] -d[Databasename] -i [Filepath]

Syntax:(For Sql Authentication)

sqlcmd -S[Servername] -U[Username] -P[Password] -d[Databasename] -i[Filepath]












After that check the table how many row affected.

SP_MSForeachtable

Some times we need to query on the all the tables in one data base single statement. We use SP_MSForeachtable this is known as undocumented stored procedures . These all are system stored procedures. These stored procedures is place in Master database. NOTE: Please do not run all these queries in Production environment Example: create database UnDocumentedStoredProcedure use UnDocumentedStoredProcedure create table Emp ( ID int identity ( 1 , 1 ), Name varchar ( 50 ), Salary int ) insert into Emp ( Name , Salary ) values ( 'rakesh' , 8000 ),( 'raju' , 9000 ) create table Dept ( ID int identity ( 1 , 1 ), DeptName varchar ( 100 ) ) insert into Dept ( DeptName ) values ( 'CSE' ),( 'IT' ) We are created new database and also created some table with some dummy data. Select all tables data: exec sp_MSForeachtable 'select * from ?...

SET ROWCOUNT

Stop the processing after the number of rows has been affected. Example: Step-1: Create the Table and insert some sample data. CREATE TABLE STUDENT ( ID INT IDENTITY ( 1 , 1 ) PRIMARY KEY , STUDENTNAME VARCHAR ( 100 ) NOT NULL , LIVINGLOCATION VARCHAR ( 100 ) NULL ) INSERT INTO STUDENT ( STUDENTNAME , LIVINGLOCATION ) SELECT 'Rakesh' , 'Hyderabad' UNION ALL SELECT 'Raju' , 'Delhi' UNION ALL SELECT 'Madhu' , 'Hyderabad' UNION ALL SELECT 'Naresh' ,NULL UNION ALL SELECT 'Venaktesh' , 'Chennai' In above Insert Statement we inserted 5 sample records. Step-2: Using SET ROWCOUT SET ROWCOUNT 3 ; SELECT * FROM STUDENT ORDER BY ID DESC It will affected 3 rows after that processing has been stopped. Step-2: Using SET ROWCOUT 0 SET ROWCOUNT 0 ; SELECT * FROM STUDENT ORDER BY ID DESC ...
