问题
We are writing a new application, and while testing, we will need a bunch of dummy data. I\'ve added that data by using MS Access to dump excel files into the relevant tables.
Every so often, we want to \"refresh\" the relevant tables, which means dropping them all, re-creating them, and running a saved MS Access append query.
The first part (dropping & re-creating) is an easy sql script, but the last part makes me cringe. I want a single setup script that has a bunch of INSERTs to regenerate the dummy data.
I have the data in the tables now. What is the best way to automatically generate a big list of INSERT statements from that dataset?
The only way I can think of doing it is to save the table to an excel sheet and then write an excel formula to create an INSERT for every row, which is surely not the best way.
I\'m using the 2008 Management Studio to connect to a SQL Server 2005 database.
回答1:
Microsoft should advertise this functionality of SSMS 2008. The feature you are looking for is built into the Generate Script utility, but the functionality is turned off by default and must be enabled when scripting a table.
This is a quick run through to generate the INSERT statements for all of the data in your table, using no scripts or add-ins to SQL Management Studio 2008:
- Right-click on the database and go to Tasks > Generate Scripts.
- Select the tables (or objects) that you want to generate the script against.
- Go to Set scripting options tab and click on the Advanced button.
- In the General category, go to Type of data to script
- There are 3 options: Schema Only, Data Only, and Schema and Data. Select the appropriate option and click on OK.
You will then get the CREATE TABLE statement and all of the INSERT statements for the data straight out of SSMS.

We use this stored procedure - it allows you to target specific tables, and use where clauses. You can find the text here.
For example, it lets you do this:
EXEC sp_generate_inserts 'titles'
Source code copied from link:
SET NOCOUNT ON
GO
PRINT 'Using Master database'
USE master
GO
PRINT 'Checking for the existence of this procedure'
IF (SELECT OBJECT_ID('sp_generate_inserts','P')) IS NOT NULL --means, the procedure already exists
BEGIN
PRINT 'Procedure already exists. So, dropping it'
DROP PROC sp_generate_inserts
END
GO
--Turn system object marking on
EXEC master.dbo.sp_MS_upd_sysobj_category 1
GO
CREATE PROC sp_generate_inserts
(
@table_name varchar(776), -- The table/view for which the INSERT statements will be generated using the existing data
@target_table varchar(776) = NULL, -- Use this parameter to specify a different table name into which the data will be inserted
@include_column_list bit = 1, -- Use this parameter to include/ommit column list in the generated INSERT statement
@from varchar(800) = NULL, -- Use this parameter to filter the rows based on a filter condition (using WHERE)
@include_timestamp bit = 0, -- Specify 1 for this parameter, if you want to include the TIMESTAMP/ROWVERSION column's data in the INSERT statement
@debug_mode bit = 0, -- If @debug_mode is set to 1, the SQL statements constructed by this procedure will be printed for later examination
@owner varchar(64) = NULL, -- Use this parameter if you are not the owner of the table
@ommit_images bit = 0, -- Use this parameter to generate INSERT statements by omitting the 'image' columns
@ommit_identity bit = 0, -- Use this parameter to ommit the identity columns
@top int = NULL, -- Use this parameter to generate INSERT statements only for the TOP n rows
@cols_to_include varchar(8000) = NULL, -- List of columns to be included in the INSERT statement
@cols_to_exclude varchar(8000) = NULL, -- List of columns to be excluded from the INSERT statement
@disable_constraints bit = 0, -- When 1, disables foreign key constraints and enables them after the INSERT statements
@ommit_computed_cols bit = 0 -- When 1, computed columns will not be included in the INSERT statement

Procedure: sp_generate_inserts (Build 22)
(Copyright © 2002 Narayana Vyas Kondreddi. All rights reserved.)
Purpose: To generate INSERT statements from existing data.
These INSERTS can be executed to regenerate the data at some other location.
This procedure is also useful to create a database setup, where in you can
script your data along with your table definitions.

NOTE: This procedure may not work with tables with too many columns.
Results can be unpredictable with huge text columns or SQL Server 2000's sql_variant data types
Whenever possible, Use @include_column_list parameter to ommit column list in the INSERT statement, for better results
IMPORTANT: This procedure is not tested with internation data (Extended characters or Unicode). If needed
you might want to convert the datatypes of character variables in this procedure to their respective unicode counterparts
like nchar and nvarchar
Example 1: To generate INSERT statements for table 'titles':
EXEC sp_generate_inserts 'titles'
Example 2: To ommit the column list in the INSERT statement: (Column list is included by default)
IMPORTANT: If you have too many columns, you are advised to ommit column list, as shown below,
to avoid erroneous results
EXEC sp_generate_inserts 'titles', @include_column_list = 0
Example 3: To generate INSERT statements for 'titlesCopy' table from 'titles' table:
EXEC sp_generate_inserts 'titles', 'titlesCopy'
Example 4: To generate INSERT statements for 'titles' table for only those titles
which contain the word 'Computer' in them:
NOTE: Do not complicate the FROM or WHERE clause here. It's assumed that you are good with T-SQL if you are using this parameter
EXEC sp_generate_inserts 'titles', @from = "from titles where title like '%Computer%'"
Example 5: To specify that you want to include TIMESTAMP column's data as well in the INSERT statement:
(By default TIMESTAMP column's data is not scripted)
EXEC sp_generate_inserts 'titles', @include_timestamp = 1
Example 6: To print the debug information:
EXEC sp_generate_inserts 'titles', @debug_mode = 1
Example 7: If you are not the owner of the table, use @owner parameter to specify the owner name
To use this option, you must have SELECT permissions on that table
EXEC sp_generate_inserts Nickstable, @owner = 'Nick'
Example 8: To generate INSERT statements for the rest of the columns excluding images
When using this otion, DO NOT set @include_column_list parameter to 0.
EXEC sp_generate_inserts imgtable, @ommit_images = 1
Example 9: To generate INSERT statements excluding (ommiting) IDENTITY columns:
(By default IDENTITY columns are included in the INSERT statement)
EXEC sp_generate_inserts mytable, @ommit_identity = 1
Example 10: To generate INSERT statements for the TOP 10 rows in the table:
EXEC sp_generate_inserts mytable, @top = 10
Example 11: To generate INSERT statements with only those columns you want:
EXEC sp_generate_inserts titles, @cols_to_include = "'title','title_id','au_id'"
Example 12: To generate INSERT statements by omitting certain columns:
EXEC sp_generate_inserts titles, @cols_to_exclude = "'title','title_id','au_id'"
Example 13: To avoid checking the foreign key constraints while loading data with INSERT statements:
EXEC sp_generate_inserts titles, @disable_constraints = 1
Example 14: To exclude computed columns from the INSERT statement:
EXEC sp_generate_inserts MyTable, @ommit_computed_cols = 1

As mentioned by @Mike Ritacco but updated for SSMS 2008 R2
- Right click on the database name
- Choose Tasks > Generate scripts
- Depending on your settings the intro page may show or not
- Choose 'Select specific database objects',
- Expand the tree view and check the relevant tables
- Click Next
- Click Advanced
- Under General section, choose the appropriate option for 'Types of data to script'
- Complete the wizard
You will then get all of the INSERT statements for the data straight out of SSMS.

This can be done using Visual Studio too (at least in version 2013 onwards).
In VS 2013 it is also possible to filter the list of rows the inserts statement are based on, this is something not possible in SSMS as for as I know.
Perform the following steps:
- Open the "SQL Server Object Explorer" window (menu: /View/SQL Server Object Explorer)
- Open / expand the database and its tables
- Right click on the table and choose "View data" from context menu
- This will display the data in the main area
- Optional step: Click on the filter icon "Sort and filter data set" (the fourth icon from the left on the row above the result) and apply some filter to one or more columns
- Click on the "Script" or "Script to File" icons (the icons on the right of the top row, they look like little sheets of paper)
This will create the (conditional) insert statements for the selected table to the active window or file.
The "Filter" and "Script" buttons Visual Studio 2013:

You can use SSMS Tools Pack (available for SQL Server 2005 and 2008). It comes with a feature for generating insert statements.

I'm using SSMS 2008 version 10.0.5500.0. In this version as part of the Generate Scripts wizard, instead of an Advanced button, there is the screen below. In this case, I wanted just the data inserted and no create statements, so I had to change the two circled properties

The first link to sp_generate_inserts is pretty cool, here is a really simple version:
DECLARE @Fields VARCHAR(max); SET @Fields = '[QueueName], [iSort]' -- your fields, keep []
DECLARE @Table VARCHAR(max); SET @Table = 'Queues' -- your table
DECLARE @SQL VARCHAR(max)
SET @SQL = 'DECLARE @S VARCHAR(MAX)
SELECT @S = ISNULL(@S + '' UNION '', ''INSERT INTO ' + @Table + '(' + @Fields + ')'') + CHAR(13) + CHAR(10) +
''SELECT '' + ' + REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(@Fields, ',', ' + '', '' + '), '[', ''''''''' + CAST('),']',' AS VARCHAR(max)) + ''''''''') +' FROM ' + @Table + '
PRINT @S'
EXEC (@SQL)
On my system, I get this result:
INSERT INTO Queues([QueueName], [iSort])
SELECT 'WD: Auto Capture', '10' UNION
SELECT 'Car/Lar', '11' UNION
SELECT 'Scan Line', '21' UNION
SELECT 'OCR', '22' UNION

SELECT 'Fix MICR', '41' UNION
SELECT 'Fix MICR (Supervisor)', '42' UNION
SELECT 'Foreign MICR', '43' UNION

If you need a programmatic access, then you can use an open source stored procedure `GenerateInsert.
INSERT statement(s) generator
Just as a simple and quick example, to generate INSERT statements for a table AdventureWorks.Person.AddressType execute following statements:
USE [AdventureWorks];
GO
EXECUTE dbo.GenerateInsert @ObjectName = N'Person.AddressType';
This will generate the following script:
SET NOCOUNT ON
SET IDENTITY_INSERT Person.AddressType ON
INSERT INTO Person.AddressType
([AddressTypeID],[Name],[rowguid],[ModifiedDate])
VALUES
(1,N'Billing','B84F78B1-4EFE-4A0E-8CB7-70E9F112F886',CONVERT(datetime,'2002-06-01 00:00:00.000',121))

My contribution to the problem, a Powershell INSERT script generator that lets you script multiple tables without having to use the cumbersome SSMS GUI. Great for rapidly persisting "seed" data into source control.
- Save the below script as "filename.ps1".
- Make your own modifications to the areas under "CUSTOMIZE ME".
- You can add the list of tables to script in any order.
- You can open the script in Powershell ISE and hit the Play button, or simply execute the script in the Powershell command prompt.
By default, the INSERT script generated will be "SeedData.sql" under the same folder as the script.
You will need the SQL Server Management Objects assemblies installed, which should be there if you have SSMS installed.

Don't use inserts, use BCP

Perhaps you can try the SQL Server Publishing Wizard http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=56E5B1C5-BF17-42E0-A410-371A838E570A&displaylang=en
It has a wizard that helps you script insert statements.

GenerateData is an amazing tool for this. It's also very easy to make tweaks to it because the source code is available to you. A few nice features:
- Name generator for peoples names and places
- Ability to save Generation profile (after it is downloaded and set up locally)
- Ability to customize and manipulate the generation through scripts
- Many different outputs (CSV, Javascript, JSON, etc.) for the data (in case you need to test the set in different environments and want to skip the database access)
- Free. But consider donating if you find the software useful :).

I used this script which I have put on my blog (How-to generate Insert statement procedures on sql server).
So far has worked for me, although they might be bugs I have not discovered yet .
回答15:
I use sqlite to do this. I find it very, very useful for creating scratch/test databases.
sqlite3 foo.sqlite .dump > foo_as_a_bunch_of_inserts.sql
回答16:
Do you have data in a production database yet? If so, you could setup a period refresh of the data via DTS. We do ours weekly on the weekends and it is very nice to have clean, real data every week for our testing.
If you don't have production yet, then you should create a database that is they want you want it (fresh). Then, duplicate that database and use that newly created database as your test environment. When you want the clean version, simply duplicate your clean one again and Bob's your uncle.

If you'd rather use Google Sheets, use SeekWell to Send the table to a Sheet, then insert rows on a schedule, as they're added to the Sheet.
See here for the step by step process , or watch a video demo of the feature here.
回答18:
why not just backup the data before your work with it, then restore when you want it to be refreshed?
if you must generate inserts try: http://vyaskn.tripod.com/code.htm#inserts
回答19:
Not sure, if I understand your question correctly.
If you have data in MS-Access, which you want to move it to SQL Server - you could use DTS.
And, I guess you could use SQL profiler to see all the INSERT statements going by, I suppose.
回答20:
I have also researched lot on this, but I could not get the concrete solution for this. Currently the approach I follow is copy the contents in excel from SQL Server Managment studio and then import the data into Oracle-TOAD and then generate the insert statements
回答21:
You can generate INSERT or MERGE statement with this simple and free application I wrote a few years ago:
Data Script Writer (Desktop Application for Windows)
Also, I wrote a blog post about these tools recently and approach to leveraging SSDT for a deployment database with data. Find out more:
Script and deploy the data for database from SSDT project
