Export Data from SQL Server 2000 or earlier

  • Is there any way I could export data to excel or other database(SQL Server 2008 or 2012) from SQL Server 2000 or earlier?

    I tried to use SQL Server Import and Export Wizard but It complains that SQL Server Native Client 11.0 doesn't support SQL Server 2000 or earlier

  • bcp will do a csv export of data. That should work.

    If you can select the data in SSMS, you can save the grid results as a csv as well.

  • If you are trying to insert data from sql server 2000 into an earlier version of SQL Server, you can use linked servers.

    insert into schema.table select * from linkOldSql2000.old_db.schema.table

    insert into schema.table (column1,column2) select column1,column2 from linkOldSql2000.old_db.schema.table

    select * into schema.new_table from linkOldSql2000.old_db.schema.table

    You can also generate "INSERT" scripts from sql server 2000 or use the bcp command line tool and BULK COPY like Steve said.
