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, location_displayName INTO [csv://Events.txt] FROM [Events] WHERE Id = 'Jq74mCczmFXk1tC10GB'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, location_displayName INTO [csv://Events.txt;delimiter=tab] FROM [Events] WHERE Id = 'Jq74mCczmFXk1tC10GB'
C#
String connectionString = "OAuthClientId=MyApplicationId;OAuthClientSecret=MySecretKey;CallbackURL=http://localhost:33333;"; using (Office365Connection connection = new Office365Connection(connectionString)) { Office365Command cmd = new Office365Command("SELECT Id, location_displayName INTO [csv://Events.txt] FROM [Events] WHERE Id = 'Jq74mCczmFXk1tC10GB' ", connection); int rowsAffected = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); }
VB.NET
Dim connectionString As [String] = "OAuthClientId=MyApplicationId;OAuthClientSecret=MySecretKey;CallbackURL=http://localhost:33333;" Using connection As New Office365Connection(connectionString) Dim cmd As New Office365Command("SELECT Id, location_displayName INTO [csv://Events.txt] FROM [Events] WHERE Id = 'Jq74mCczmFXk1tC10GB'", 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 = "OAuthClientId=MyApplicationId;OAuthClientSecret=MySecretKey;CallbackURL=http://localhost:33333;"; using (Office365Connection connection = new Office365Connection(connectionString)) { Office365Command cmd = new Office365Command("SELECT * INTO [Events] IN [csv://filename=c:/Events.csv;delimiter=tab] FROM [Events] WHERE Id = 'Jq74mCczmFXk1tC10GB'", connection); int rowsAffected = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); }
VB.NET
Dim connectionString As [String] = "OAuthClientId=MyApplicationId;OAuthClientSecret=MySecretKey;CallbackURL=http://localhost:33333;" Using connection As New Office365Connection(connectionString) Dim cmd As New Office365Command("SELECT * INTO [Events] IN [csv://filename=c:/Events.csv;delimiter=tab] FROM [Events] WHERE Id = 'Jq74mCczmFXk1tC10GB'", connection) Dim rowsAffected As Integer = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery() End Using
