Hi, I was wondering which is the best way to read data from a txt file and insert each row into sql.
OLE DB Command could be? It will be necesary to work with variables?
My txt file will have a defined width (if it is necessary to know). I will have many rows with many columns. I have to map eah column from the txt file to it's corresponding column in sql server and insert data into it for each row.
Thanks for your help!

I have to perform a bulk Import on a regular Basis and have created a script to do this. The Problem is that the .csv file has 12 Columns and the table to Import into has 14. To Workaround this discrepancy I have decided to use a Format file. The Problem is that how to create one.

i'm an sql server beginer. i was wondering if some of you guys can help
me out. i need for the sql server to be able to read an outside file (just text) and be able to run a script that will insert it in the database. it's a dcc output file. we've tried running this script:
DROP TABLE tests
go
DECLARE @SQLSTR varchar(255)
SELECT @SQLSTR = 'ISQL -E -Q"dbcc checkdb(master)"'
CREATE TABLE tests (Results varchar(255) NOT NULL)
INSERT INTO tests EXEC('master..xp_cmdshell ''ISQL -E -Q"dbcc checkdb(master)"''')
and it's running good but the problem is the results of the dbcc here did not come from a file but directly after executing the dcc command. is there a way to do it?
thank's for the help!
Hi again all,
Is there a way to read a file name automatically from a network folder? I can successfully bulk insert from this particular folder. The next step is as I add files, I wish to bulk insert the latest file added so the program must make that determination and import that specific file. I can delete the older files if necessary and save them elsewhere but it would still be nice to be able to read the file name. I then wish to store the name of this file, whatever it is, into a field called "SourceFileName" in my table that I am bulk inserting into. Does anyone have an example in dynamic SQL? Thanks.

I am using Microsoft SQL 2005, I need to do a BULK INSERT from a .csv I just downloaded from paypal. I can't edit some of the columns that are given in the report. I am trying to load specific columns from the file.
bulk insert Orders
FROM 'C:Users*******DesktopDownloadURL123.csv'
WITH
(
FIELDTERMINATOR = ',',
FIRSTROW = 2,
ROWTERMINATOR = ''
)
So where would I state what column names (from row #1 on the .csv file) would be used into what specific column in the table.
I saw this on one of the sites which seemed to guide me towards the answer, but I failed.. here you go, it might help you:
FORMATFILE [ = 'format_file_path' ]
Specifies the full path of a format file. A format file describes the data file that contains stored responses created using the bcp utility on the same table or view. The format file should be used in cases in which:
The data file contains greater or fewer columns than the table or view.
The columns are in a different order.
The column delimiters vary.
There are other changes in the data format. Format files are usually created by using the bcp utility and modified with a text editor as needed. For more information, see bcp Utility.
I am trying to load a fixed width text file using `Bulk Insert` and a XML format file. I have used the same process and XML file on another fixed width, except with less columns.
Error
Msg 4857, Level 16, State 1, Line 16
Line 4 in format file "PATHCaddr.xml": Attribute "type" could not be specified for this type.
SQL Server Table
[code lang="sql"]
create table [dbo].[raw_addr](
address_numbervarchar(max),
addr_linelvarchar(max),
addr_line2varchar(max),
street_novarchar(max),
[code]....
I wasn't sure where to put this topic so I put it here since I figured it is a question that would apply to virtually any version even though I am using SQL Server 2005.
We have a vendor that sends us a fixed width text file every day that needs to be imported to our database in 3 different tables. I am trying to import all of the data to a staging table and then plan on merging/inserting select data from the staging table to the 3 tables. The file has 77 columns of data and 20,000+ records. I created an XML format file which I sampled below:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<BCPFORMAT xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sqlserver/2004/bulkload/format" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<RECORD>
<FIELD ID="RetNo" xsi:type="CharFixed" LENGTH="6"/>
[Code] ....
The data file is a fixed width file with no column delimiters or row delimiters that I can tell. When I run the following insert statement I get the error below it.
BULK INSERT myStagingTable
FROM '.........myDataSource.txt'
WITH (
FORMATFILE = '.........myFormatFile.xml',
ERRORFILE = '.........errorlog.log'
);
Here is the error:
Msg 4832, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Bulk load: An unexpected end of file was encountered in the data file.
Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1

Thanks and regards

Overall goal: Write a Bulk Insert statement using the UNC path of a filetable directory.
Issue: When using the UNC path of the filetable directory in a Bulk Insert Statement, receiving "Operating system error code 50(The request is not supported.)" Looking for confirmation as to whether this is truly not supported.
Environment: SQL Server 2012 Standard. Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard
Can we bulk insert only the desired column from a flat file to a table?
I am using SSIS to bulk insert from a file with more than 200 columns. I am trying to find a way I can bulk insert them to multiples table through SSIS.
The one way I can think is pre map the columns from the file to the destination tables. Build numerous Bulk Insert tasks to achieve that. But not sure if SSIS will let me do that.
I'm trying to set up a BULK INSERT Format File for some data that I've been sent, which, according to the data documentation, comes in fixed-width format fields (no delimiters except for end-of-row 0D0A) in SQL-Server 2005 Express.
The following is the first line...
"7999163 09182003 56586 56477 3601942 1278 22139 1102 113 118 51450 1 1 63535647 10000

Looking with a hex editor, all the above whitespace are 20's.
From the documentation, I've constructed the following table...
CREATE TABLE MQIC.DBO.ORDER_F
(
TRACER_ID NUMERIC (10,0),
DB_CREATE_DATE CHAR (8),
DB_UPDATED_DATE CHAR (8),
CREATE_DATE_KEY NUMERIC (10,0),

DURATION NUMERIC (4,0),
NUMBER_OF_VISITS NUMERIC (3,0),
ACTIVITY_TRACER_ID NUMERIC (10,0),
AGE_KEY NUMERIC (10,0)
)
To Bulk Insert this, I've written the following...
BULK INSERT MQIC.DBO.ORDER_F
FROM 'E:MDataOrder_F.txt'
WITH
(
FORMATFILE = 'E:MDataOrder_F_format.txt'
)
and written the following format file...

Since this is my first time with this, I read the BOL items on Bulk Insert, Format Files, and each of the formatting attibutes, and made up two line "toy" examples for SQLCHAR and SQLINT, including two columns - all worked as expected.
It seemed that only SQLNUMERIC/SQLDECIMAL fell apart.
Even the following trivial example doesn't work for this field of data...

Hello,
I need help regarding bulk insert into sql server. basically i m making a customized webapplication to save all the file and directories saving it in an arraylist and then want to save the contents of that array list into sql server table. now my questions are:
1) should i use arraylist for this purpose(i mean is it fast as my data is too big)
2) how to save all the data from arraylist into sql server table with bulkinsert or smthing like that. i dont want to use insert query with looping through the arraylist, as it will take lot of time and resources.
hope you get my query.

I'm building a web application. I need to read data from a text or excel file and process the data and then store the result records into database. The record number is big. I can store the data record into database (SQL Server 2005) one at a time. I think it's slow. Is there any way to insert the data in bulk.

I am running the following:

DB.dbo.[stblCLIENT] is on SERVER2. I receive the following error:

I am able to run a DTS package that imports the same text file from SERVER1 with no error.
Is BULK INSERT limited to importing text files from the server on which SQL Server is running or should I be able to BULK INSERT from another server on my LAN?

[code]
<add key="connectionString" value="Server=(local);Database=BroadCastOne;trusted_connection=true" />
[/code]
I've given bulkAdmin role to the ASPNET user. It's still not working. What am I doing wrong?
Any help is greatly appreciated,
Ninel
Hey There,
Here, is the example of Bulk Insert into SQL Server Table.
From Application you have to pass a XML string to a Stored Procedure and it will insert all data into table using that XML.
Example SP.
CREATE PROCEDURE StoredProcName
(
@strXML varchar(8000)
)
AS
Declare @intPointer int
exec sp_xml_preparedocument @intPointer output, @strXML
INSERT into tbl_plnd_insertion
SELECT Column1, Column2, Column3, Column4, Column5
FROM OpenXml(@intPointer,'/root/tbl_plnd_insertion',2)
WITH (Column1 varchar(20) '@Column1' , Column2 varchar(20) '@Column2', Column3 varchar(20) '@Column3' , Column4 varchar(50) '@Column4', Column5 varchar(50) '@Column5')
exec sp_xml_removedocument @intPointer
Thanks !!!!!
I am trying to use the 'Bulk Insert' command to load a data file into aMS-SQL db. The line I am using is:Bulk Insert SVC_Details From "C:XFILE.TXT" With (FieldTerminator = ',')I have tried the file name with " around it and with ' around it and boththe " and ', but every time the Query Analyzer comes back with the followingerror:---Begin Error Msg---Server: Msg 4861, Level 16, State 1, Line 1Could not bulk insert because file ''C:XFILE.TXT'' could not be opened.Operating system error code 123(The filename, directory name, or volumelabel syntax is incorrect.).---End Msg---I am not sure what is wrong with this line. Can any one tell me what iswrong?Mikem charney at dunlap hospital dot org

I want to be able to run the following command from SSMS (as an ad-hoc query).
BULK INSERT Database_Name.dbo.Table_Name FROM 'serverfile.txt' WITH (FIELDTERMINATOR = '|', ROWTERMINATOR = '0x0a', MAXERRORS = 0);
When I do I get:
Msg 4861, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot bulk load because the file "serverfile.txt" could not be opened. Operating system error code 5(Access is denied.).
I have full access to the file.I can do the same command successfully if the file is stored on a local drive on the server.
According to my DBA I can not run it with a remote file location because I don't have the SA permission. His solution is for me to create a job that runs the command. I have done so and the job works correctly.
Is he correct that there is no way for me to be able to run it from SSMS without SA permissions?
I'm able to successfully import data in a tab-delimited .txt file using the following statement.
BULK INSERT ImportProjectDates FROM "C: mpImportProjectDates.txt"
WITH (FIRSTROW=2,FIELDTERMINATOR = ' ', ROWTERMINATOR = '')
However, in order to import the text file, I had to add columns to the text file to match the columns that exist in the table. The original file is an export out of another database and contains all but 5 columns from my db.
How would I control which column BULK INSERT actually imports when working with a .txt file? I've tried using a FORMAT FILE, however I kept getting errors which I tracked down to being a case of not using it with a .txt file.
Yes, I could have the DBA add in the missing columns to the query from the other DB to create the columns, however I'd like to know a little bit more about this overall.
I need to load the following data into a SQL table. This is how the vendor is able to provide it to us.

I have attempted to bulk insert it into this table with no luck.
CREATE TABLE POMaster
(Facility VARCHAR(75),
Location VARCHAR(75),
PONum INT,
VendorNm INT,
INVENTORYNUM VARCHAR(25),
orderDte DATE,
ExtendedPrice NUMERIC(10,2)
)
GO
It does not like the double quotes. How to make this format work? Do I need a format file?
I want to bulk insert data into a table named scd_event_tab inside a database named rdb.
When I do select * from rdb.dbo.scd_event_tab, i get :
JOB_ID RUN_ONPRIORITYPAYLOADTIMEOUT_INTERVALSTATUSPICKUP_TIMESCD_TYPESCHEDULE_IDDB_ADMIN_LOGIN_REQUIRED_YN
I saved the result into a csv file and then truncated the table. Now, I am trying to bulk insert the data into the table. So I used:
bulk insert
rdb.dbo.scd_event_tab from 'C:userssluintel.ctrdesktopeventtab.csv'
with
(
codepage = 'RAW',
datafiletype = 'native',
fieldterminator = ' ',
keepidentity,
keepnulls
);
go
However, I get this error:
Msg 4867, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Bulk load data conversion error (overflow) for row 1, column 1 (JOB_ID).
Msg 4866, Level 16, State 5, Line 1
The bulk load failed. The column is too long in the data file for row 1, column 3. Verify that the field terminator and row terminator are specified correctly.
Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
