I have a Windows powershell script that works fine in the interactive editor. The script is a simple one line sql cmd:
sqlcmd -S servername -d dbname -E -W -w 999 -s "," -Q "SELECT select col1,col2,'','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','' From Table" -o "C:\sqlcmd.csv"
When I enter that at the powershell command prompt it works fine. I save it in a ps1 file and try to run it from the cmd prompt by typing .\filename.ps1, it opens it in Notepad, and does not execute it.
I then try to run it as a command like this:
powershell sqlcmd -S servername -d dbname -E -W -w 999 -s "," -Q "SELECT select col1,col2,'','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','' From Table" -o "C:\sqlcmd.csv"
And that says "-s missing parameter...".
Any suggestions on getting this to run right? I read something somewhere about Windows execution policy and was wondering if it was something like that.
Operating System is Windows XP, SP2.
