Question

How can i update bulk data in sql server 2005 by sending the data in XML form ?
i am able to insert bulk data into the table, but i am not getting idea to update the data.

Answer 1

Insert into #TempTable
//Basically do bulk insert into temp table then...


Update MyTable
  Set Field1 = tt.Field1,
      Field2 = tt.Field2,
      ...
FROM #TempTable tt
where primaryKey = tt.PrimaryKey

Note this is kind suedo code. so replace fieldx with your field names and replace primaryKey with the primarykey field name or unique identifier field name for the table.
