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.

Variables in T-SQL

There are two types of variables in T-SQL. 1.   Local Variables (It must begin @ symbol). 2.   Global Variables (it must begin @@ symbol) this variables also known as system variables. Syntax Declare a Variable DECLARE   @Variable-Name   DATATYPE EXAMPLE: DECLARE   @Name   VARCHAR ( 100 ) In before 2008 versions of SQL SERVER we declare a variable and assign a value in 2 lines.                 DECLARE   @Name   VARCHAR ( 100 ) SET   @Name = 'LeadFirstSQL' In 2008 and Later versions of SQL SERVER we declare a variable and assign a value in single line. DECLARE   @Name   VARCHAR ( 100 )   = 'LeadFirstSQL' Variables must be declare and used with the same batch. DECLARE   @Name   VARCHAR ( 100 ) ...
