Importing SQL into SQL Server — Quick Facts

  • About this database: SQL Server uses [bracketed] identifiers and TOP or OFFSET/FETCH.
  • Default port: 1433
  • Identifier quoting: [square brackets]
  • Date / time types: datetime, datetime2, date, time
  • Large text type: nvarchar(max)
  • Binary type: varbinary(max)
  • Command-line import: bcp, or BULK INSERT

Common Pitfalls When Importing SQL into SQL Server

  • bcp and BULK INSERT reject the whole batch on a conversion error unless MAXERRORS is set.
  • Identity columns keep their own sequence, so imported ids can be renumbered.
