you mean export a table to a file ? You can use DTS or BCP to export a table to a file.quote:

You can execute the DTS or BCP in your table's update trigger. Or alternatively keep a last update date & time or flag (update the flag using update trigger) and schedule a job via Enterprise Manager to check for the flag and call DTS / BCP to export to file.-----------------[KH]Guys, where are we right now ? |
