Bulk Copy Data Using the ttBulkCp Utility

The ttBulkCp utility enables you to copy data between TimesTen tables and ASCII files.

You can manage certain aspects of existing tables in the database with the ttBulkCp utility. With the ttBulkCp utility, you can add rows of data to an existing table, save data to an ASCII file, and load the data rows into a table in a TimesTen database.

The rows you are adding must contain the same number of columns as the table, and the data in each column must be of the type defined for that column.

Because the ttBulkCp utility works on data stored in ASCII files, you can also use this utility to import data from other applications, provided the number of columns and data types are compatible with those in the table in the TimesTen database and that the file found is compatible with ttBulkCp.
