Question

Im copying data from a ms access db to sql server like this…

string sSQLTable = table;
string myExcelDataQuery = "Select * from " + sSQLTable;
string sSqlConnectionString = connStr;
string sClearSQL = "DELETE FROM " + sSQLTable;
SqlConnection SqlConn = new SqlConnection(sSqlConnectionString);
SqlCommand SqlCmd = new SqlCommand(sClearSQL, SqlConn);
SqlConn.Open();
SqlCmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
SqlConn.Close();
OleDbConnection OleDbConn = new OleDbConnection(String.Format("Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source={0}", fileName));
OleDbCommand OleDbCmd = new OleDbCommand(myExcelDataQuery, OleDbConn);
OleDbConn.Open();
OleDbDataReader dr = OleDbCmd.ExecuteReader();
SqlBulkCopy bulkCopy = new SqlBulkCopy(sSqlConnectionString);
bulkCopy.DestinationTableName = sSQLTable;
while (dr.Read())
{
    bulkCopy.WriteToServer(dr);
}
OleDbConn.Close();

But this only does it for one table name…how do i put this in a loop and get each table name and call this function to copy data for each table?

You may take a look at the following article which illustrates how to retrieve a list of available tables by querying the schema.
