SELECT INTO Statements
You can use the SELECT INTO statement to export formatted data to a file.
Data Export with an SQL Query
The following query exports data into a file formatted in comma-separated values (CSV):
SELECT Id, Name INTO [csv://Projects.txt] FROM [Projects] WHERE Id = 'MyId'You can specify other formats in the file URI. The possible delimiters are tab, semicolon, and comma with the default being a comma. The following example exports tab-separated values:
SELECT Id, Name INTO [csv://Projects.txt;delimiter=tab] FROM [Projects] WHERE Id = 'MyId'
C#
String connectionString = "AccountId=1234567;Schema=V3;ProjectId=abcd1234"; using (BasecampConnection connection = new BasecampConnection(connectionString)) { BasecampCommand cmd = new BasecampCommand("SELECT Id, Name INTO [csv://Projects.txt] FROM [Projects] WHERE Id = 'MyId' ", connection); int rowsAffected = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); }
VB.NET
Dim connectionString As [String] = "AccountId=1234567;Schema=V3;ProjectId=abcd1234" Using connection As New BasecampConnection(connectionString) Dim cmd As New BasecampCommand("SELECT Id, Name INTO [csv://Projects.txt] FROM [Projects] WHERE Id = 'MyId'", connection) Dim rowsAffected As Integer = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery() End UsingYou can specify other file formats in the URI. The following example exports tab-separated values:
C#
String connectionString = "AccountId=1234567;Schema=V3;ProjectId=abcd1234"; using (BasecampConnection connection = new BasecampConnection(connectionString)) { BasecampCommand cmd = new BasecampCommand("SELECT * INTO [Projects] IN [csv://filename=c:/Projects.csv;delimiter=tab] FROM [Projects] WHERE Id = 'MyId'", connection); int rowsAffected = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); }
VB.NET
Dim connectionString As [String] = "AccountId=1234567;Schema=V3;ProjectId=abcd1234" Using connection As New BasecampConnection(connectionString) Dim cmd As New BasecampCommand("SELECT * INTO [Projects] IN [csv://filename=c:/Projects.csv;delimiter=tab] FROM [Projects] WHERE Id = 'MyId'", connection) Dim rowsAffected As Integer = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery() End Using
