Thanks for your answer!

For now i'm using it on the main server.
But i think it's coming from trying to connect as my server is not on my "network"

Anyway , do you have any idea how to extract only the table i need?
For example i have a file txt where i have put the name of the table i need

Thanks in advance

Hello

I'm still struggling with this code
So i'm using this code from a remote computer connected to a DBserver
So i could connect to my server this time
The script is able to see the DB, the table, the view. i can see everything when i check the variables
He creates the folders but there is no data
I have check the rights of the folder
I'm admin of my computer
I have even put the group "everyone" on the folder
Have you test remotely on your side?

Kind Regards

Maxime

Sorry mate, I haven't used this script for years so I have no idea anymore :)

Hi Maxime,

I changed the script to my needs.
This is working remotely for me, hope it works for you too.
