I have a particular SQL file in which i copy all contents from on table in a database to another table in another database.
The traditional INSERT statements are used to perform the same operation. However this table has 8.5 Million records and it fails. The queries succeed with a smaller database.
Also in when i run the select * query for that particular table the SQL query express shows out of memory exception.
In particular there is one table that has some many records. So this table alone i want to copy from the old Db to the new Db.
What are alternate ways to achieve this?
Is there any quick work around by which we can avoid this exception and make the queries succeed?
Let me put it this way. Why would this operation fail when there are a lot of records?
I don’t know if this counts as “traditional INSERT”, but have you tried “INSERT INTO”?
