Schedule SQL Query output to file, the simple way
Today two colleagues wanted to schedule the output of a SQL command to a text file so they could check some values on a daily base. After some clicking in SQL Server i found a very simple solution,
I created a SQL server Job Step which executed the SQL command
Then went to the Advanced tab and selected an output file to where the data can be written (even appended):
Very simple way to log query output to a file at a regular interval.
neat…but you should fix the second screenshot and maybe explain more about where to access the section to create a job step.
Hi @Ecomator
I fixed the image. You can create a job step, by going to the SQL Server agent, Jobs in the sql server management studio connected to a sql server. Right mouse button new Job.
I hope this helps you?
