Import schema into SqlExpress

Hi all,

I've got a PostgreSQL schema, how can I import it in SqlExpress?

What's the best tool for administering Sql Express.

Thanks,
LorenzoHi

I am not a Postgres expert, but if there is a way to generate the DDL
(CREATE TABLE scripts) you could use that and modify any syntax that is not
SQLExpress compliant. Alternatively you may be able to reverse engineer the
database with a CASE/design tool such as Visio/Erwin/ER_studio etc... and
use that.

For specific questions on SQL Express you should ask in the express
newsgroup
http://communities.microsoft.com/ne...ver2005.express

should do the job just fine, then I could mantain it allright from
Visual Web Developer

Import from XML File to SQL Table

Hi ,

I am importing data from an xml file that validates itself against a schema. I need to import some of the values to the corresponding columns in the table. Other elements will be inserted to the a column of type XML.

The size of the file is about 500+MB. I have already tried SSIS. It does not validate my schema, in spite of the fact that the schema is valid. I tried to copy using SQLXML Bulk Insert, but this does not suit to my particular situation.

I am using SQL Server 2005.

What are my options? Any examples / code samples will do.

Thank you,

Zaboo

What is it about SQLXML that doesn't suit your needs?

How about some sample data, ddl, etc.?
