Can you clarify what you mean by "generate INSERTs"?


MS SQL Server Management Studio (MS SSMS) allows in-line editing, including pasting new rows from Excel (I'd love that for Db2). MS SSMS also allows import from CSV (although that's more complicated).

Maybe I am just not using the right google search but ...

Every database tool I have used in recent years has included an option to generate INSERTs from data in an existing table.

I've looked at ACS, RDi, and everywhere else I could think of - and all I can find is the ability to look at data, or export as CSV type files. The only SQL generation available seems to be for the table definition.

This seems such an obvious oversight I'm convinced I must have missed something.

In the end I loaded up DBeaver and it did the job for me - thought I'd mention that in case anyone else had a similar need and was equally confused.
