sqlbulkcopy

I'm using SqlBulkCopy to restore tables from xml backups. One of the table backup is ~200MB large and has a lot of records. I'm having error: Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding. You probably need to increase the timeout. Try increasing the value of sqlBulkCopy.BulkCopyTimeout from the default which is 30 seconds. There are two ways to fix this error: Increase Timeout by default it is 30 second and 0 means infinite. sqlBulkCopy.BulkCopyTimeout = {time in seconds} Decrease BatchSize by default it try to insert all rows

I am using SQLBulkCopy to move large amounts of data. I implemented the notification event to notify me every time a certain number of rows have been processed, but the OnSqlRowsCopied event does not fire when the job is completed. How do I get the total number of rows copied when the SQLBulkCopy writetoserver completes? I think you have to run a COUNT() query on the table after finishing, as in the MSDN example here . Other than that, can't you tell up front? e.g. if you're passing a DataTable to WriteToServer() then you know how many records by doing a .Rows.Count on it. The following hack

I have a String to Date conversion problem using SQL Bulkcopy in asp.net 3.5 with C# I read a large CSV file (with CSV reader ). One of the strings read should be loaded into a SQL server 2008 Date column. If the textfile contains for example the string '2010-12-31', SQL Bulkcopy loads it without any problems into the Date column. However, if the string is '20101231', I get an error: The given value of type String from the data source cannot be converted to type date of the specified target column The file contains 80 million records so I cannot create a datatable....

I have a datatable with the records.I'm inserting records into Sql table using SqlBulkCopy.It works fine.Next time when get the datatable with same records with few changed values SqlBulkCopy is inserting another set of records without updating the previous details.How can I update the Sql table using SqlBulkCopy ?? Please help. Thanks, Vix SqlBulkCopy is only used for inserting records, not updating them as explained here . You'd need to use a different technique to do bulk updates. e.g. you could SqlBulkCopy into a staging table, then run some SQL to update from there to the main table.

I am using C# and using SqlBulkCopy. I have a problem though. I need to do a mass insert into one table then another mass insert into another table. These 2 have a PK/FK relationship. Table A Field1 -PK auto incrementing (easy to do SqlBulkCopy as straight forward) Table B Field1 -PK/FK - This field makes the relationship and is also the PK of this table. It is not auto incrementing and needs to have the same id as to the row in Table A. So these tables have a one to one relationship but I am unsure how to get back all those PK Id that the mass insert made since I need them for Table B. Edit
