TNX Erland,
However i think because of
> WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT .... FROM target WHERE ...)
it will also take a lot of time.
All that i need to do is to copy entire table with it's structure to other
database on the same server
i have 10 tables with aproximatly 3000000 rows, while i tried to use DTS for
sure LOG is growed up and it's taken a lot of time something like 1700000 in
a hour . (In the target table i don't have any constrints and indexes).
Thank Erland
