SQL Server Tips
static data tables

If you have static data tables then consider the following option - for low volume static data.

You can set up a DTS package to export the tables to an excel workbook very easily. Just use the export wizard and schedule the DTS package to run at a convenient time.
But...Make sure
 ODBC drivers are configured on the server - 2000 installed by default but not SQL server 7
 The sql server agent account has permissions to write to the folder for the spreadsheet.
 That the option to delete the data first is set.

Don't forget to set up a DTS import package and....test, retest and test again.
