Hi,
I have a situation where I am loading data into a staging
table for multiple data sources. My next step is to pick up the
records from the staging table and compare with the data in the
database and based on the certain conditions, decide whether to insert
the data into the database or update an existing record in the
database. I have to do this job as an sp and schedule it to run on the
server as per the requirements. I thought that cursors are the only
option in this situation. Can anyone suggest if there is any other way
to achieve this in SQL 2005 please.

Thanks

Seshadri
