Online Documentation for DB Extract for SQL Server

Step 6 - Setting up extraction options


At this step you can set the advanced extraction parameters and define query options for data extraction.

 

Metadata options

 

CheckBox Generate "CREATE DATABASE" statements

Check this option to add the CREATE DATABASE statement(s) to the extraction script.

 

CheckBox Generate "USE DATABASE" statement

Check this option to add the USE DATABASE statement(s) to the result script.

 

CheckBox Generate "DROP" statements

Check the option to add the DROP statements for the extracted objects.

 

CheckBox With "IF" statements

Check this option to add the IF keyword to the DROP statements in the result script.

 

CheckBox Create empty procedures

This option specifies whether procedures with empty bodies are included in the result script or not.

 

CheckBox Extract privileges

Tick off the option if you want the privileges (permissions on the objects) to be extracted.

 

CheckBox Order by dependencies

This option specifies whether objects should be ordered by their dependencies in the result script or not.

 

CheckBox Extract dependent objects

This option determines the usage of dependencies between objects in the extraction process.

 

CheckBox Extract dependent tables data

Enable this option to extract the data of the dependent tables to the result script.

 

CheckBox Use collations

This option determines the usage of collations in the extraction process.

Data options

 

Records in block / CheckBox Insert "COMMIT" after each block

These controls allow you to define whether the COMMIT statement is inserted into the script or not, and to define the number of records in each block to be supplemented with this statement.

 

CheckBox Delete existing records before insert

Generates the TRUNCATE TABLE statements before the INSERT INTO statements.

 

CheckBox Generate "PRINT <object name>" statement

Check this option to allow adding the PRINT statement to the result script.

 

Data query options

This grid allows you to specify additional options for the SELECT statements used for data extraction.

 

Database name

This column represents the list of the databases containing the tables selected for data extraction.

 

Limit data

By setting non-zero values in this column you can limit the number of records extracted from each table.

 

Table name

This column contains the names of the tables (with the names of the schemas they belong to).

 

Table data filter

Here you can specify the WHERE clauses for data extraction from each of the tables.

 

Note that you can define data query options not only for a single table, but also for multiple tables at a time by using corresponding items of the context menu of the Data query options grid.
