Haven't used the rowguid column before so sorry if this is a simple question. I'm building a DTS Transform package ... here is my transform DTSDestination("accountManagerId") = "1" DTSDestination("clientId") = "2" DTSDestination("clientName") = DTSSource("Col002") DTSDestination("clientType") = "Account" DTSDestination("creditStatus") = "Approved" DTSDestination("dateFirstProject") = Null DTSDestination("defaultInvoiceTerms") = "net 15 days" DTSDestination("description") = "" DTSDestination("estAnnualRevenue") = 0 DTSDestination("inactive") = "0" DTSDestination("industryType") = " " DTSDestination("naicsCode") = " " DTSDestination("notes") = " " DTSDestination("numberOfEmployees") = " " DTSDestination("numberOfLocations") = 1 DTSDestination("parentCompanyId") = 0 DTSDestination{'rowguid']= ????????????????? DTSDestination("totalSales") = 0 DTSDestination("website") = " " It's the DTSDestination{'rowguid']= that continues to blow. I've tried everything I can think of :-(. The table column is rowguid with default newid(). Thanks for your help. Teresa
Leave the column out the transform. It should be able to insert a value automatically using the NEWID() default. Or you could force a value into the column by entering a GUID e.g "{12345678-ABCD-EF34-1234-123456789011}". I wouldn't recommend this. This GUIDs are meant to be 'automagically' generated by SQL server and used (mostly) internally. Nathan H.O. Moderator SQL-Server-Performance.com
