Remarks
Microsoft SQL Server includes a popular command-prompt utility named bcp for moving data from one table to another, whether on a single server or between servers. The SqlBulkCopy class lets you write managed code solutions that provide similar functionality. There are other ways to load data into a SQL Server table (INSERT statements, for example), but SqlBulkCopy offers a significant performance advantage over them. The SqlBulkCopy class can be used to write data only to SQL Server tables. However, the data source is not limited to SQL Server; any data source can be used, as long as the data can be loaded to a DataTable instance or read with a IDataReader instance.
SqlBulkCopy will fail when bulk loading a DataTable column of type SqlDateTime into a SQL Server column whose type is one of the date/time types added in SQL Server 2008.

Examples
The following console application demonstrates how to load data using the SqlBulkCopy class. In this example, a SqlDataReader is used to copy data from the Production.Product table in the SQL Server 2005 AdventureWorks database to a similar table in the same database. Important |
|---|
This sample will not run unless you have created the work tables as described in Bulk Copy Example Setup (ADO.NET). This code is provided to demonstrate the syntax for using SqlBulkCopy only. If the source and destination tables are in the same SQL Server instance, it is easier and faster to use a Transact-SQL INSERT … SELECT statement to copy the data. |

Comentarios
Microsoft SQL Server incluye una conocida utilidad de línea de comandos denominada bcp para mover datos de una tabla a otra, ya sea en un solo servidor o entre servidores. La clase SqlBulkCopy permite escribir soluciones de código administrado que proporcionan una funcionalidad similar. Hay otras maneras de cargar datos en una tabla de SQL Server (por ejemplo, instrucciones INSERT), pero el rendimiento de SqlBulkCopy es mucho mayor. La clase SqlBulkCopy se puede utilizar para escribir datos sólo en tablas de SQL Server. Sin embargo, el origen de datos no se limita a SQL Server; se puede utilizar cualquier origen de datos, siempre que los datos se puedan cargar en una instancia de DataTable o se puedan leer con una instancia de IDataReader.
SqlBulkCopy dará error al hacer una carga masiva de una columna DataTable de tipo SqlDateTime en una columna de SQL Server cuyo tipo es uno de los tipos de fecha y hora agregados en SQL Server 2008.

Ejemplos
La siguiente aplicación de consola muestra cómo cargar datos mediante la clase SqlBulkCopy. En este ejemplo, se utiliza SqlDataReader para copiar datos de la tabla Production.Product ubicada en la base de datos AdventureWorks de SQL Server 2005 a una tabla similar en la misma base de datos. Importante |
|---|
Este ejemplo no se ejecutará a menos que haya creado las tablas de trabajo como se describe en Configuración de ejemplo de copia masiva (ADO.NET). Este código se proporciona para mostrar cuál debe ser la sintaxis cuando sólo se utiliza SqlBulkCopy. Si las tablas de origen y de destino están en la misma instancia de SQL Server, lo más rápido y sencillo es usar una instrucción INSERT … SELECT de Transact-SQL para copiar los datos. |
