I'm running SQL Server 2008 locally. I have a pile of scripts I would like to run on my local database. I can connect to the server and run them manually but I have over a 100 scripts, and I'm sure there is a way to do this. Any help is appreciated, thanks!
You can iterate all query files in a directory and execute them with osql utility.
#echo off
for %%f in (*.sql) do (
echo executing %%f
osql -E -i %%f
)
pause

I am trying to select data from table and save them info .csv file via .bat file.
My batch runs Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio and log me into database, but I am not able to execute sql scripts.
Here is what I have:
#echo off
cls
:begin
set /p SName=Server Name :
set /p DbName=Database Name :
set /p UName=User Name :
set /p DbPWD=Password :
pause
echo Running Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio, please wait
call ssms -S %SName% -d %DbName% -U %UName% -P %DbPWD% "select * from MYTABLE" -s "," -o " Export.csv"
echo Done
pause
:end
It does not work after line: ssms -S %SName% -d %DbName% -U %UName% -P %DbPWD%
UPDATE:
Error picture
Thank you
SSMS does not accept an in-line script from the command line, as you are trying to do. Please use SQLCMD for this work. that's why you got the error message.
See SSMS Command Line
Straight from Microsoft
sqlcmd -S <ComputerName>\<InstanceName> -i <MyScript.sql> -o <MyOutput.rpt>
I have to execute bulk of scripts on a database server, i am able to execute it with the help of batch but This database server having multiple databases,so for every database i am writing below mentioned script-
EX-
for database name1-
for %%G in (*.sql) do sqlcmd /S [Server] /d [A] -E -i"%%G" pause
for database name2-
for %%G in (*.sql) do sqlcmd /S [Server] /d [B] -E -i"%%G" pause
is there any way so that i don't have to write this .bat file for every database name?i want to write single script which works for all the databases...
You could change your script to be:
for %%G in (*.sql) do sqlcmd /S %1 /d %2 -E -i"%%G" pause
then pass in the server and database name when launching the bash script. For example, if your script was called "myscript.bat", then you could launch it from command line via
> myscript.bat server name
I have a case where i have got 10+ SQL script.
I don't want to go and run all my scripts 1 by 1.
Is there a way that i can run all my scripts in succession in SQL Management studio.
I found this post. Creating a batch file seems easier.
This is all you need:
#echo off
ECHO %USERNAME% started the batch process at %TIME% >output.txt
for %%f in (*.sql) do (
(
sqlcmd.exe -S servername -E -d databasename -i %%f >>output.txt
)
pause
Replacing servername and databasename, but it seems to be not working.
Any ideas?
You've got an unmatched parenthesis, there.
Try
for %%f in (*.sql) do sqlcmd.exe -S servername -E -d databasename -i %%f >>output.txt
I just saved it in a .cmd file and it appears to be working.
Yes, it's possible. You can do it with :r command of SQLCMD.
I strongly recommend you to read this article and do it with SQLCMD
http://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/1543/using-sqlcmd-to-execute-multiple-sql-server-scripts/
You can create a Strored Procedure to call all your Scripts. You could also create a schedule plan to run the scripts automaticaly.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa174792(v=sql.80).aspx
Here is an open source utility with source code http://scriptzrunner.codeplex.com/
This utility was written in c# and allows you to drag and drop many sql files and start running them against a database.
You can use Batch Compiler add-in for SMSS, it let's you run multiple scripts at once, create SQLCMD scripts or consolidate them into a *.sql file.
Some batch trick
cd %~dp0 //use this if you use 'for xxx in', it solved most of my problems
ECHO %USERNAME% started the batch process at %TIME% >output.txt
for %%f in (*.sql) do (
(
sqlcmd.exe -S servername -E -d databasename -i %%f >>output.txt
)
echo %errorlevel%
pause
If you want to run Oracle SQL files through a Batch program, then the code below will be useful. Just copy & change the Database credential and DB names
#echo off
for %%i in ("%~dp0"*.sql) do echo #"%%~fi" >> "%~dp0all.sql"
echo exit | sqlplus scott/tiger#orcl #"c:\users\all.sql"
pause
Basically, you need to put this batch file in the folder where you have all the SQL files. It will first get all the sql file names in the directory and load their full path with the sql file names. Then, it will write into a file all.sql and then sqlplus will call that all.sql to execute all the sql files that you have in that directory.
I have a number of .sql files which I have to run in order to apply changes made by other developers on an SQL Server 2005 database.
The files are named according to the following pattern:
0001 - abc.sql
0002 - abcef.sql
0003 - abc.sql
...
Is there a way to run all of them in one go?
Create a .BAT file with the following command:
for %%G in (*.sql) do sqlcmd /S servername /d databaseName -E -i"%%G"
pause
If you need to provide username and passsword
for %%G in (*.sql) do sqlcmd /S servername /d databaseName -U username -P
password -i"%%G"
Note that the "-E" is not needed when user/password is provided
Place this .BAT file in the directory from which you want the .SQL files to be executed, double click the .BAT file and you are done!
Use FOR. From the command prompt:
c:\>for %f in (*.sql) do sqlcmd /S <servername> /d <dbname> /E /i "%f"
In the SQL Management Studio open a new query and type all files as below
:r c:\Scripts\script1.sql
:r c:\Scripts\script2.sql
:r c:\Scripts\script3.sql
Go to Query menu on SQL Management Studio and make sure SQLCMD Mode is enabled
Click on SQLCMD Mode; files will be selected in grey as below
:r c:\Scripts\script1.sql
:r c:\Scripts\script2.sql
:r c:\Scripts\script3.sql
Now execute
The easiest way I found included the following steps (the only requirement is it to be in Win7+):
open the folder in Explorer
select all script files
press Shift
right click the selection and select "Copy as path"
go to SQL Server Management Studio
create a new query
Query Menu, "SQLCMD mode"
paste the list, then Ctrl+H, replace '"C:' (or whatever the drive letter) with ':r "C:' (i.e. prefix the lines with ':r ')
run the query
It sounds long, but in reality is very fast (it sounds long as I described even the smallest steps).
Make sure you have SQLCMD enabled by clicking on the Query > SQLCMD mode option in the management studio.
Suppose you have four .sql files (script1.sql,script2.sql,script3.sql,script4.sql) in a folder c:\scripts.
Create a main script file (Main.sql) with the following:
:r c:\Scripts\script1.sql
:r c:\Scripts\script2.sql
:r c:\Scripts\script3.sql
:r c:\Scripts\script4.sql
Save the Main.sql in c:\scripts itself.
Create a batch file named ExecuteScripts.bat with the following:
SQLCMD -E -d<YourDatabaseName> -ic:\Scripts\Main.sql
PAUSE
Remember to replace <YourDatabaseName> with the database you want to execute your scripts. For example, if the database is "Employee", the command would be the following:
SQLCMD -E -dEmployee -ic:\Scripts\Main.sql
PAUSE
Execute the batch file by double clicking the same.
General Query
save the below lines in notepad with name batch.bat and place inside the folder where all your script file are there
for %%G in (*.sql) do sqlcmd /S servername /d databasename -i"%%G"
pause
EXAMPLE
for %%G in (*.sql) do sqlcmd /S NFGDDD23432 /d EMPLYEEDB -i"%%G"
pause
sometime if login failed for you please use the below code with username and password
for %%G in (*.sql) do sqlcmd /S SERVERNAME /d DBNAME -U USERNAME -P PASSWORD -i"%%G"
pause
for %%G in (*.sql) do sqlcmd /S NE8148server /d EMPLYEEDB -U Scott -P tiger -i"%%G"
pause
After you create the bat file inside the folder in which your Script files are there just click on the bat file your scripts will get executed
You could use ApexSQL Propagate. It is a free tool which executes multiple scripts on multiple databases. You can select as many scripts as you need and execute them against one or multiple databases (even multiple servers). You can create scripts list and save it, then just select that list each time you want to execute those same scripts in the created order (multiple script lists can be added also):
When scripts and databases are selected, they will be shown in the main window and all you have to do is to click the “Execute” button and all scripts will be executed on selected databases in the given order:
I wrote an open source utility in C# that allows you to drag and drop many SQL files and start running them against a database.
The utility has the following features:
Drag And Drop script files
Run a directory of script files
Sql Script out put messages during execution
Script passed or failed that are colored green and red (yellow for running)
Stop on error option
Open script on error option
Run report with time taken for each script
Total duration time
Test DB connection
Asynchronus
.Net 4 & tested with SQL 2008
Single exe file
Kill connection at anytime
What I know you can use the osql or sqlcmd commands to execute multiple sql files. The drawback is that you will have to create a script for both the commands.
Using SQLCMD to Execute Multiple SQL Server Scripts
OSQL (This is for sql server 2000)
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa213087(v=SQL.80).aspx
#echo off
cd C:\Program Files (x86)\MySQL\MySQL Workbench 6.0 CE
for %%a in (D:\abc\*.sql) do (
echo %%a
mysql --host=ip --port=3306 --user=uid--password=ped < %%a
)
Step1: above lines copy into note pad save it as bat.
step2: In d drive abc folder in all Sql files in queries executed in sql server.
step3: Give your ip, user id and password.
I know this question is more focused on SQL Server. I had the same question, but for PostgreSQL. The solution is very close for what I needed, so I thought I would share what I got for anyone that needs it:
for %f in (*.sql) do psql -U [username] -d [database name] --command="\i %f";
I ran this from the folder containing all of my sql scripts.
To avoid being prompted for a password, I had to add
*:*:*:[user]:[password]
to my pgpass.conf file that lives in
%APPDATA%\Roaming\postgresql\
folder on windows. I had to create the file myself.
You can create a single script that calls all the others.
Put the following into a batch file:
#echo off
echo.>"%~dp0all.sql"
for %%i in ("%~dp0"*.sql) do echo #"%%~fi" >> "%~dp0all.sql"
When you run that batch file it will create a new script named all.sql in the same directory where the batch file is located. It will look for all files with the extension .sql in the same directory where the batch file is located.
You can then run all scripts by using sqlplus user/pwd #all.sql (or extend the batch file to call sqlplus after creating the all.sql script)
For executing every SQLfile on the same directory use the following command:
ls | awk '{print "#"$0}' > all.sql
This command will create a single SQL file with the names of every SQL file in the directory appended by "#".
After the all.sql is created simply execute all.sql with SQLPlus, this will execute every sql file in the all.sql.
If you can use Interactive SQL:
1 - Create a .BAT file with this code:
#ECHO OFF ECHO
for %%G in (*.sql) do dbisql -c "uid=dba;pwd=XXXXXXXX;ServerName=INSERT-DB-NAME-HERE" %%G
pause
2 - Change the pwd and ServerName.
3 - Put the .BAT file in the folder that contains .SQL files and run it.
Is there any way to have a Windows batch file directly input SQL statements without calling a script? I want the batch file to login to SQL and then enter in the statements directly.
EDIT: I'm using Oracle v10g
For a single command you can use this trick:
echo select * from dual; | sqlplus user/pw#db
To run something on SQL server 2005/2008, you could use sqlcmd command line utility. sqlcmd -h prints the list of switches.
Short answer: No. Batch files by themselves can't do this.
Long answer: You may be able to come close, depending on which kind of database server you're using, and what the capabilities the commandline client provides.
What kind of database server are you using? Oracle, mySql, Sybase, Microsoft, Terradata, ???
For example, with a Sybase database, you can use the isql commandline client to run from a batch file:
isql -S server -D database -U user -P password -i script
You could use sqlcmd (for sql server) or System.Data.Odbc.OdbcCommand from powershell.
The odbc command of the outwit tool suite allows you to run select statements on any database for which an appropriate ODBC data source has been defined.
You can use http://tekkies.co.uk/go/runsqloledb
e.g.
RunSQLOLEDB "Provider=SQLOLEDB;Data Source=(local);..." "SELECT GetDate()"
or
RunSQLOLEDB #ConnectionString.txt #Query.sql
Here is a rough example script for MSSQL which may be able to be modified for Oracle:
#ECHO off
SETLOCAL ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION
:: batch file for sql query
SET STARTDATE=20101010
SET ENDDATE=20111109
SET AGENCYNAME=Agency
SET DBNAME=AccidentDB
SET SQLSTRING=SELECT Acc.INC_ID,^
Veh.MAKE, Veh.MODEL, Veh.LIC_NUM^
FROM Acc,^
lnk_Acc_Veh, Veh^
WHERE (INC_NUM LIKE '20115000%')^
AND lnk_Acc_Veh.link_id=Veh.key^
AND lnk_Acc_Veh.link_id=Acc.key^
AND Acc.date ^> '%STARTDATE%' OR Acc.date ^< '%ENDDATE%';
CLS
#ECHO.
