Here's one for the gurus,

We use Enterprise Manager's Export Data feature to copy table rows to another server fairly often. ( right-click the table name, Export)

Problem: If we forget to click the ... (elipse) to bring up the 'Column Mappings and Transformations' window, the copied rows will be APPENDED to the destination table.

** Is there any way to change the default to be 'DELETE rows in destination table' **. (Now it defaults to Append rows)

Thanks for any ideas. John



 
have I stumped everyone?

Maybe I should repost in the SQL Server Programming forum.
