    Copying the data (tables or column names) from one Database to Another Database

    Hello again, sorry I got a lot of questions...

    We are inputting Standard cost data in one database say ex. DB01. I need to copy this information everytime to the Standard cost column in one database ex. DB02. Is this possible?

    Thanks again in advance, best regards

    Thanks so much, in my book that I am reading it talks about tables only not database. May I ask then what would be the syntax if to call out a table of another database? Can't thank you enough...

    Try something like this in db02:

    insert into table select ... from db01..table where ...

    Hello again to all,sorry if you feel my inquiry is never ending ^.^

    if I will not use triggers (as it seems complicated to me) may I suggest the following scripts to copy column data from one database to another database.

    Update DB02.dbo.<tableName>.stdost
    Set DB02.dbo.<tableName>.stdcost=db1.dbo.<tableName>.s tdcost
    where DB02.dbo.<tableName>.item_no. = DB01.dbo. <tablename>.item_no

    Please let me know your votes ^.^
