There are no loops present in this script.

It boils down to something like:

From DBMS, load rows that fall in a certain window (see WHERE clause) into an internal table called Contact_SQL

IF FirstLoad is not set, and a previous copy of this table exists in a QVD file,

THEN

  From QVD file, add all rows to the internal table Contact_SQL that don't already exist

END IF

IF Contact_SQL has more than 0 rows

THEN

  STORE Contact_SQL into the external QVD file (overwrite if it already exists)

  COPY Contact_SQL into internal table Contact

  DELETE internal table Contact_SQL

END IF

Best,

Peter

Prior to the section of the script that you posted, I believe you will find the variables vLastExecTime, vExecTime and FirstReload set.

QvdCreateTime(\\Path\QVD_NAME) is a function that returns the timestamp of the QVD_NAME.

In this section, select data between the 2 timestamps, vLastExecTime and vExecTime.

FROM Contact

WHERE LastModifiedDate >= $(vLastExecTime) and LastModifiedDate < $(vExecTime);

In this section, if this is the first time the script is run, there should not be a qvd.  If this is not the first time the script is run and there was not data selected during the first run, there should not be a qvd.  If this is not the first run and a qvd exist, load the previous selected records from the qvd with the ignoring the records with Id that exists in the Contact_SQL that was just generated.  You are basically concatenating the unique records in the qvd to the query above.  Looks like you have only the last loaded Id record.

// For the 1st reload, this section will be skipped.

if Not $(FirstReload) and not isnull(QvdCreateTime('$(vQVDPath)Contact_SQL.QVD'))then

Load *

FROM $(vQVDPath)Contact_SQL.qvd (qvd)

WHERE NOT EXISTS(Id);

end if

In this section, if you have records you will create a new qvd or overwrite the existing qvd with the concatenated records.

// If Opportunity table exists then proceed to the next step

if NoOfRows('Contact_SQL') > 0 then

STORE Contact_SQL INTO $(vQVDPath)Contact_SQL.qvd;

In this section, create a new table Contact from Contact_SQL renaming fields and then you drop the original Contact_SQL.

Contact:

Load

Id as [Contact Id],

    AccountId as AccountId,

    LastName as [Contact First Name],
