SQLCMD - Run Transact-SQL Script Files from MS-DOS Prompt

Create a script file

To create a simple Transact-SQL script file using Notepad, follow these steps:

  1. Click  Start , select  All Programs , go to  Accessories ,  and then click  Notepad .

  2. Copy and paste the following Transact-SQL code into Notepad:

  3. Save the file as  myScript.sql  on drive C.



USE AdventureWorks2012; GO SELECT p.FirstName + ' ' + p.LastName AS 'Employee Name', a.AddressLine1, a.AddressLine2 , a.City, a.PostalCode FROM Person.Person AS p INNER JOIN HumanResources.Employee AS e ON p.BusinessEntityID = e.BusinessEntityID INNER JOIN Person.BusinessEntityAddress bea ON bea.BusinessEntityID = e.BusinessEntityID INNER JOIN Person.Address AS a ON a.AddressID = bea.AddressID; GO

Run the script file

  1. Open a command prompt window.

  2. In the Command Prompt window, type:  sqlcmd -S myServer\InstanceName -i C:\myScript.sql

  3. Press ENTER.

A list of Adventure Works employee names and addresses is written in the command prompt window.

Save the output to a text file

  1. Open a command prompt window.

  2. In the Command Prompt window, type:  sqlcmd -S myServer\InstanceName -i C:\myScript.sql -o C:\EmpAdds.txt

  3. Press ENTER.

No output is returned in the command prompt window. Instead, the output is sent to the EmpAdds.txt file. You can verify this output by opening the EmpAdds.txt file.

If you want to specify Username/Password for access

sqlcmd -S myServer\InstanceName -U username -P username -i C:\myScript.sql -o C:\EmpAdds.txt

How to change color according to cell value in Visual Foxpro grid.

This post teaches you how to get the effect shown in the image below using the GRID component of visual fox pro. Requires visual foxpro 9.0 SP2 I usually create a class for this, but here in the example I will do it in the simplest way, however, using a method inside the form. You need to create a blank form, add a GRID, a REFRESH button and add a table.  In my example I used a very basic table, called VALORES.DBF, with the VALOR field.  If the value is 1, I use one color, if it is 2, I use another and so on. My VALORES.DBF table is in the same directory where I am saving the FORM.  Creating the table CREATE TABLE values ​​(n(10,2) value) INSERT INTO values ​​(value) VALUES (1) INSERT INTO values ​​(value) VALUES (2) INSERT INTO values ​​(value) VALUES (3)  FORM PROPERTIES BINDCONTROLS = .F. DATASESSION = 1  INIT SELECT values LOCATE THISFORM.BINDCONTROLS = .T.  LOAD METHOD IF NOT FILE('values.dbf') SET MESSAGE TO MESSAGEBOX('Table VALORES.DBF is not...

How to deploy a printed pages control in the VFP to take an action after the report prints.

Isolved this issue by creating a public variable: PUBLIC _npagetotal _npagetotal = 0 Then, using the ReportListener component to control the reports, analyze the pagetotal property after the report runs.  If it returns <> 0, it means there was content in the report and if it returns 0 (zero), there was no content. */ control of printed pages _npagetotal = 0 LOCAL loreportlistener loreportlistener = CREATEOBJECT("ReportListener") loreportlistener.LISTENERTYPE = 0 loreportlistener.QUIETMODE = .T. REPORT FORM pathgeral + '\report\danfe_nfce_2.frx' OBJECT loreportlistener        _npagetotal = loreportlistener.pagetotal RELEASE loreportlistener IF _npagetotal<> 0 THEN   * PERFORMS AN ENDIF  ACTION
