I have a question that I hope that you all can help me answer. I have a customer that is using Cisco Call manager to import Client Matter Codes into his call manager. To import the CMCs, he uses the Bulk Administration tool or BAT to import them via a .csv file. What he wants to do is automate the import. Well, Cisco doesn't currently have a way to automate this import so I had the thought that maybe we could import the text directly into the CMCs table in the SQL database. I did a little research and found out that SQL has an import/export tool call bcp. I used bcp to export the table and here's an example of one line in the table:
1111111111111-1111111111-1111111111111 123456 Plaintiff vs. Defendant 111111111-1111-1111-11111-1111111111111
And here is a sample of the file that we are import using the BAT:
I did some reading and if I understood correctly I need to do the import using the format file above, but I need to map the import so it only imports into the two columns I need, so I edited the file:
I'm a sql newbie so I just want to know if this will work and if the import does work will sql automatically generate the first two columns (SQLUNIQUEID) during the import. Also after the import do I need to do anything like restart the SQL service. Any help you guys can give me will be appreciated.

I am trying to import an xlsx spreadsheet into a sql 2008 r2 database using the SSMS Import Wizard. When pointed to the spreadsheet ("choose a data source")  the Import Wizard returns this error:
"The operation could not be completed" The Microsoft ACE.OLEDB.12.0 provider is not registered on the local machine (System.Data)
How can I address that issue? (e.g. Where is this provider and how do I install it?)

I am trying to simplify a query given to me by one of my collegues written using the query designer of Access. Looking at the query there seem to be some syntax differences, so to see if this was the case I thought I would import the database to my SQL Server Developer edition.
I tried to start the wizard from within SQL Server Management Studio Express as shown in one of the articles on MSDN which did not work, but the manual method also suggested did work.
Trouble is that it gets most of the way through the import until it spews forth the following error messages:
- Prepare for Execute (Error) Messages Error 0xc0202009: {332B4EB1-AF51-4FFF-A3C9-3AEE594FCB11}: An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005. An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft JET Database Engine" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "Could not start session. Too many sessions already active.". (SQL Server Import and Export Wizard)
Error 0xc020801c: Data Flow Task: The AcquireConnection method call to the connection manager "SourceConnectionOLEDB" failed with error code 0xC0202009. (SQL Server Import and Export Wizard)
Error 0xc004701a: Data Flow Task: component "Source 33 - ATable" (2065) failed the pre-execute phase and returned error code 0xC020801C. (SQL Server Import and Export Wizard).
There does not seem to be any method of specifying a number of sessions, so I don't see how to get round the problem.
Does anyone know how I can get the import to work?
I am not sure how to implement the following, but I believe it entails using DTS, and hopefully it is fine that I post it here b/c ultimately I will need this backend data for my frontend .aspx pages:
On a weekly basis, I need to IMPORT some data located on a remote Oracle DB into SQL Server 2k. Since there is so much data to transfer, I would only like to transfer the data that is new to the table since the last IMPORT, i.e. a week ago and leave behin the OLD data.
Is DTS the correct way to go or do I have more control via DTS with STORED PROCEDURES? Does anyone have any good references for me?
On a similar note, once this Oracle data is IMPORTED into a certain table, I would like to EXPORT some of these NEWLY acquired rows matching certain criteria into another table for auditing purposes. For this scenario, should I implement a TRIGGER UPDATE event here on the first table?
when trying to Ãmport files to our database server from a client, I keep getting an error:
- Validating (Error) Messages Error 0xc00470fe: Data Flow Task: The product level is insufficient for component "Source_txt" (1). (SQL Server Import and Export Wizard)
Error 0xc00470fe: Data Flow Task: The product level is insufficient for component "Data Conversion 1" (175). (SQL Server Import and Export Wizard)
... doing the same import when logged on the server, hasn't been giving me any errors, how come. I can from my client without trouble import tables from other DB servers but when ever it is files it won't do it.
I tried as mentioned in other threads rerun setup to re-install SSIS, but as it was already installed it wouldn't re-install. My next move would be to make a clean install, but not sure it would help, as I think this is a buck.
Hi,I am having trouble importing data from an excel spreadsheet into MSSQL Server 2000 using DTS Wizard. The DTS import process issuccessfull, no errors, but only 50 rows of approx. 1500 rows of dataare imported. I tried to remove 20 rows in the excel spreadsheet inthe interval row 0-50. When i later ran the import, only 30 rows wereimported. I deleted almost every row in the interval 0-50, with theresult of the import having 0 rows imported (but job ransuccessfully). I decided to delete rows 0-100 in the spreadsheet inorder to see if the resolved the problem, but it didn't. As Isuspected something in the excel file to be the cause, I exported theexcel spreadsheeet to a tab delimited textfile, with only one row. ADTS import resulted in importing approx 100 rows, double the amount ofthe textfile, but the other 1400 rows were not imported. The data inthe column is containing numeric values only.Please help me! What could possibly be the cause of DTS skipping rowslike that. DTS doesn't feel reliable at all :/Regards,Björn

I am trying to do a DTS Import in SQL Server 7. I am importing from a text file to a SQL Server format. When I run the import to append the data I get the following error:

Could anyone tell me how to correct this problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
When I try to import an AS/400 table, I get to the screen where “You can choose one or more tables to copy.” After selecting one table and clicking Next, I get a DTS Wizard Error.

This ODBC driver is from Microsoft SNA Server version 4.0 and does work with Microsoft Access.
I've never used DTS before, but would like to employ it to do a rather complicated data import (well complicated in my opinion).
I need to use DTS to import rows from a DBF File into a SQL Table. These DBF files reside on a separate server and can only be operated on once copied to another location so they aren't in an open state. Specifically I want to append the data from the DBF file into a SQL table. That is, a program writes data to a DBF file, and I want to import the new data not yet imported into SQL since the previous import. Another issue is that these DBF files change filenames (table names) every month. In other words, every month a new DBF table is created with the month number in the table name. I would have to import those, but make sure before I do so that all the rows from the previous month's table have been imported and then import the current month. Where I am find myself having the real problem is that in the DBF file, each row doesn't have a primary key I can reference it with. Only way to distinguish one row from another is to reference two columns, a timestamp and account number, those two columns can never be the same in another row. So I am not sure how to keep track of which row to start importing data from the DBF file.
Of course, lastly I'd like to automate this entire process so it happens every minute or two.
Hope that makes sense. Any help or thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

I am using bcp utility to import text File data into SQL server table.I import about 50-60 such files. All other files except one file copies less no of rows to the database every time , than it has in the text file. All other files having either less or greater amount of data transfers it properly.I do not know why this happens to only one file.
Colmn delimiter used is | and row delimiters used is .
I am trying to centralize event logs with dumpevt to produce csv (comma or tab seperated) files for import via BCP. My problem lies in that it fails to put the CR/LF at the end of the last line.
So I get an "Unexpected EOF encountered" error.
Anyone else familar with this or how I might be able to script an insertion to those files of the CR/LF? Perhaps some way to just script appending a row terminator in the import file?
Any assistance would be GREALTY appreciated. -Jonah
I'd like to bcp import a file that sometimes misses the last column/s. There's an EOL character instead. For some reason, bcp wraps around, ignoring the EOL character, and continues reading from the next row of the file. Instead, I'd like to replace the missing columns by null.
I've tried using bcp, bulk insert and the DTS Wizard. So far, I've only been succesfull using the DTS Wizard. I also do some other bcp imports, so I'd like to stick with bcp.
Hi There! I have a problem with a DBF file. The problem is that somebody gaves me a data base in DBF format and he uses in SQL Server 2000 and EMS SQL Manager. Well, I have to instal the MDE and SQL Enterprise Manager and when I use the DTS tool to import the data I've got this error:
'Error not Especified'
and I don't know what's happen and how to solve it. Please! Any ideas!

Hello New to the forum and pretty new to SQL Server. I need to import data from a website written in PHP. The data is a leaderboard for a local poker league. It only contains about 5 columns with about 700 rows of data. I was wondering if there was a script to do this? I merely need to import the data into a table in SQL Server that is set up exactly the same way as the table on the website. Anyone help with this one? Thanks
Hey guys,I was curious how other people create several 100 SQL objects on anew database. Example: I have each procedure in its own text file (IE100 .sql files), so I just check them out of source control, then runa perl script that just dumps them into one txt file. Then I pastethat mess into Query Analyzer.So to reiterate my question, how do other people get sql objectsinto a database. Obviously I'd do an object copy if they resided insome other database.While my solution works, there is always a better way. Thanks foryour suggestions.- Cpt
Hi.Please try to bear with this SQL "newbie" here ;)I am trying to figure out how to import the FCC ULS report results into adatabase. I believe what I need is a JOIN statement. To see the datafor yourself, visit http://s91748743.onlinehome.us/wndv619_example.txt(I chose this query because it's near where I live. If you want to runyour own search, the URL ishttp://wireless2.fcc.gov/UlsApp/Uls...archLicense.jsp)(NOTE:The FCC webpage with the query athttp://wireless2.fcc.gov/UlsApp/Uls...archLicense.jsp does justwhat I am trying to do, but I'd like to keep just certain records locallyso that searches are faster and are not dependent on being on a computerwith an internet connection.)I'll try to briefly explain what you are seeing.The .txt file referenced above is a flat text file, pipe-delimited.The very first field is a two-letter code denoting the table type. Someexamples are HD (Header), FR (Frequency), and EM (Emission Type).The second field is a unique entity number.The fourth field contains the call sign (WNDV619).After that, the content varies significantly, based on the first field'stable type.The FCC website lists the column headings for each table type. Forexample, in a HD (Header) table, the first field is the table type, thesecond is the entity number, the fourth field is the call sign, theseventh field is some date, etc. The SQL statements (I believe there aresome syntax errors) to create all of those table types can be found athttp://wireless.fcc.gov/uls/data/do...n/pa_ddef16.sqlFurther specs on the tables can be found at http://wireless.fcc.gov/cgi-bin/wtb-datadump.pl(This is so overwhelming...)What I would like to do is (either in Access if possible--yeah,right--orvia a web-type query in .asp or .html) to be able to click on a callsign, and have a new table appear with choices of table types, then to beable to click on the table type, and have a new table appear with thosechoices, etc.Some entity numbers have more than one call sign. Some call signs havemore than one frequency (as in the example above), etc.Is there an explanation of how to do this already? (What terminologydescribes that which I am trying to accomplish? Linked tables?)Note that with the number of table headers available (that first column,2-letter code) there can be quite a few tables just on one entity numberand/or call sign.Can anybody help?--NOTE: To reply, DELETE the obvious word in my e-mail address you need toDELETE in order to reply.
