Hello,

I'm trying to create a DTS statement wich must transfer
records from DATABASE1.TABEL1 to DATABASE2.TABELTEMP.

Select Distinct ID
ID2
getdate () as 'DATE'
from TABEL1

where not exists
(select id,id2
from DATABASE2.user.TABELTEMP)

If i execute the DTS i get an error that there is an
wrong Pointer.

If i exetute the statement in the Analyser everything goes well.

Can sombody tell what i do wrong


greetings,

Eric
 
That statement will never execute in query analyzer, because it does not have commas between the column names. I think your where clause is missing some pieces as well.

Code:
Select Distinct [b]a.[/b]ID
[b],[/b]                [b]a.[/b]ID2
[b],[/b]                getdate () as 'DATE'
from TABEL1 a  --need to use alias to reference this in subquery

where not exists
           (select * ---using * in a not exists is faster
            from DATABASE2.dbo.TABELTEMP
	    [b]where id = a.ID
	    and id2 = a.ID[/b])

Here is a different way to do it, without the subquery.

Code:
Select Distinct a.ID
, a.ID2
, getdate() as DATE
from TABEL1 a
left join
DATABASE2.dbo.TABELTEMP b
on a.id = b.id
and a.id2 = b.id2
where b.id is null

NOne of this is tested.

I replaces 'user' with 'dbo' just to see if they parse OK. Are you hoping this query will insert, or is this the source for a data pump task?

Hope it helps,

Alex
