CREATE TABLE For BULK INSERT: How To Set The Decimal Number Right In Col ?

Jan 26, 2008

Hi all,

I executed the following sql code in my SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMSE):
-- myCSV1.sql --

USE MyDatabase

GO

CREATE TABLE myCSVtable

(

Col1 int,

Col2 nvarchar(25),

Col3 nvarchar(25),

Col4 decimal (9.3),

)

BULK INSERT myCSVbulk

FROM 'c:myfile.csv'

WITH

(

FIELDTERMINATOR = ',',

ROWTERMINATOR = '
'

);

GO
=====================================
I got the following error message:


Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 6

Incorrect syntax near '9.3'.

How can I set the statement "Col4 decimal (9.3)" right? Please help and advise.

Thanks in advance,

Need Help Using Bulk Insert From A CSV With A Variable Number Of Fields

Dec 6, 2007

Hi folks....

I am able to import a CSV file into a temporary table as long as I know the number of fields in the CSV file. Here is what I would like to do:

I would like to have a CSV file which has UP to 6 entries per row. I would like to insert each row into a table; if the there three fields, then I want to insert them into the first three columns to the temporary table. If there are four, then insert into the first four fields. Is this possible?

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks!

Create Database && Bulk Insert

Nov 16, 2007

I realise this may be a very simple question for most of you, but if you can help this could save me a ton of work. Yes, I am a newbie.
I need to create a database and bulk insert data. The format for the table is set as an html file, the schema file is set as a txt file, and the data is in the form of a text file. I can see that this should be simple, but I just can't get the syntax right.
I have tried writing a simple query to do this and have read and re-read the appropriate microsoft pages but still no luck - not for the want of trying.
What I want to do is eventually manipulate the data from Visual Basic. I tried doing all this firstly via Visual Basic, then via MySQL and finally decided that seting up a database via Microsoft SQL ought to be the easiest way to go since it can easily be accessed via Visual Basic.
Any help will be appreciated.

Transact SQL :: Using Bulk Insert - Invalid Column Number In Format File Error

Jun 5, 2015

I try to import data with bulk insert. Here is my table:

Adding Number Of Decimal Places During Table Design

Nov 3, 2006

Hello,

Nice easy one (hopefully) from a newbie on SQL 2000.

I have a table HolidayTakenBooked which is populated from a stored procedure via the following statement;

TRUNCATE TABLE HolidayTakenBooked
INSERT INTO HolidayTakenBooked
SELECT * FROM #TMP_HolidayTakenBooked ORDER BY ABR_Clock_No

I am finding that for certain values in the HolidayTakenBooked table decimals are not being transferred correctly. ie. 0.5 in the TMP table appears as 1 in the HolidayTakenBooked table.

I'm pretty sure that this is down to the data definition of the table see sample field below;
[HOL_DaysTaken1] [decimal](18, 0) NULL ,

So the simple question here is how do I define decimal places when I define a new table. When designing a new table in Enterprise Manager I select decimal and the server does not allow me to change the value of 9 it defaults to.

What simple thing I am not doing ?

Cheers
Neal

How Do You Use An Identity Column When Doing A Bulk Insert Using The Bulk Insert Task Editor

Apr 18, 2008



Hello,

I'm just learning SSIS and I've hit my first bump. I am doing a bulk import from a tab delimited text file to an empty sql table that has a Idendity column defined. How do I tell the bulk insert task to skip that column when inserting from the text file. If I remove the identity column it imports the data fine, but I want to create the indentity column in the table too.

Thanks.

BULK INSERT From A Table

Jul 28, 2006

Hi there.

I have a table that contains comma delimited text, and I am trying to convert this into another table



eg my target table looks like

Produce|Price|QuantityPerPrice



and my input table contains strings such as

"apples","7.5","10"

"pears","10","8"

"oranges","8","6"

Does anyone have any ideas on how to do this? I am after a solution that does them all at once: I am currently using charindex() to find each column, one at a time, but given the speed of BULK INSERT I would much rather do it as a table. The one solution that I don't want to resort to is to export the table with delimited strings to a data file, then BULK INSERT it...



Cheers

Neil

Bulk Insert Into One Table From Another

Feb 1, 2008

This is in the context of an ETL process - loading large blocks of data.

I bulk insert a bunch of rows (could be millions, more likely 10's of thousands) into a table, perform some queries and then I need to append those rows into a second table and truncate the first table. From an efficiency standpoint, switching the load table into a partitioning scheme would be best, but I can't use partitioned tables for reasons not relevant here.

So, what's going to be the most efficient solution? I can easily do a simple insert into/select from to copy the rows, but that will be fully logged, and I'd really like a minimally logged solution. Looking at the docs for bulk insert/bulk copy, I can't see a solution that will copy data from one table to another, but I'm suspecting that I'm overlooking something. I could re-load the rows from the client using a second bulk copy, but that seems like a terrible waste (although the client is on the same box, and always will be, so it's not as bad as it might be).

Best Way To Do A Dynamic Bulk Insert To A Table

Sep 3, 2007

My current project is creating a social network for the university I work for.  One of the features allows members of a group to send a message to all other group members.  Currently, I run a foreach loop over each of the group members, and run a separate INSERT statement to insert a message into my messages table.  Once the group has several hundreds members, everybody starts getting timeout errors.  What is the best way to do this? Here are two suggestions I've received: construct one sql statement that would contain multiple INSERT statements.  It would be a large statement like: INSERT into [messages] (from_user, to_user, subject, body) VALUES (@from_user, @to_user, @subject, @body);  INSERT into [messages] (from_user, to_user, subject, body) VALUES (@from_user2, @to_user2, @subject2, @body2);  INSERT into [messages] (from_user, to_user, subject, body) VALUES (@from_user3, @to_user3, @subject3, @body3); etc... Or, do the foreach loop in a stored procedure.  I know the pros and cons of sprocs versus dynamic sql is a sticky subject, and, personally, I'd prefer to keep my logic in the C# code-behind file.  What is the best way to do this is an efficient manner?  I'd be happy to share some code, if that would help.  Thanks for your input!

Bulk Insert Into Table With More Columns Than Data Within File

Jun 17, 2007

Hey all

I have a bulk insert situation that would be nice to be able to pull off. I have a flat file with 46 columns that are to go into a table. The table, I want to have a 47th column to be updated later on by means of a stored proc saying if the import into the system was sucessful or not. I have the rowterminator set as '"' thinking that would tell SQL to begin on the next row, leaving the importstatus column null but i still receive an error.

First of all, is this idea possible within this insert statement. Secondly, if so, what would be the syntax to tell the insert statement to skip that particular column. It is the last column listed in the table so it just needs to start on the next row after it inserts the last bit of data in the flatfile.

If this is not possible, is it possible to bulk insert into a temp table?

Thanks

Bulk Insert Into Views That Select From Table On Remote Server

Hi all,We have an application through which we are bulk inserting rows into aview. The definition of the view is such that it selects columns froma table on a remote server. I have added the servers usingsp_addlinkedserver on both database servers.When I call the Commit API of oledb I get the following error:Error state: 1, Severity: 19, Server: TST-PROC22, Line#: 1, msg:SqlDumpExceptionHandler: Process 66 generated fatal exception c0000005EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION. SQL Server is terminating this process.I would like to know if we can bulk insert rows into a view thataccesses a table on the remote server using the "bulk insert" or bcpcommand. I tried a small test through SQL Query Analyser to use "bulkinsert" on a such a view.The test that I performed was the following:On database server 1 :create table iqbal (var1 int, var2 int)On database server 2 (remote server):create view iqbal as select var1,var2 from[DBServer1].[SomeDB].[dbo].[iqbal]set xact_abort onbulk insert iqbal from '\MachineIqbaliqbaldata.txt'The bulk insert operation failed with the following error message:[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][DBNETLIB]ConnectionCheckForData(CheckforData()).Server: Msg 11, Level 16, State 1, Line 0General network error.

If not then couldanyone suggest a workaround. I would actually like to know someworkaround to get the code working using OLEDB.

Default Table Owner Using CREATE TABLE, INSERT, SELECT && DROP TABLE

Nov 21, 2006

For reasons that are not relevant (though I explain them below *), Iwant, for all my users whatever privelige level, an SP which createsand inserts into a temporary table and then another SP which reads anddrops the same temporary table.My users are not able to create dbo tables (eg dbo.tblTest), but arepermitted to create tables under their own user (eg MyUser.tblTest). Ihave found that I can achieve my aim by using code like this . . .SET @SQL = 'CREATE TABLE ' + @MyUserName + '.' + 'tblTest(tstIDDATETIME)'EXEC (@SQL)SET @SQL = 'INSERT INTO ' + @MyUserName + '.' + 'tblTest(tstID) VALUES(GETDATE())'EXEC (@SQL)This becomes exceptionally cumbersome for the complex INSERT & SELECTcode. I'm looking for a simpler way.Simplified down, I am looking for something like this . . .CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.TestInsert ASCREATE TABLE tblTest(tstID DATETIME)INSERT INTO tblTest(tstID) VALUES(GETDATE())GOCREATE PROCEDURE dbo.TestSelect ASSELECT * FROM tblTestDROP TABLE tblTestIn the above example, if the SPs are owned by dbo (as above), CREATETABLE & DROP TABLE use MyUser.tblTest while INSERT & SELECT usedbo.tblTest.If the SPs are owned by the user (eg MyUser.TestInsert), it workscorrectly (MyUser.tblTest is used throughout) but I would have to havea pair of SPs for each user.* I have MS Access ADP front end linked to a SQL Server database. Forreports with complex datasets, it times out. Therefore it suit mypurposes to create a temporary table first and then to open the reportbased on that temporary table.

Bulk Insert - Bulk Load Data Conversion Error

bulk insert tmp_GA_status from 'C: empTextDumpGA_status.dta'

with (CODEPAGE='RAW', FIELDTERMINATOR='|', ROWTERMINATOR='

so yeah, pretty simple. But whatever I do I get this;
