T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Import To Table From Varying Tab Delimited Text Files

Feb 10, 2014

I need to import data to a MSSql table from massive (read: a million and a half rows, every single day) logs that come in .txt format separated in tabs with a ";" symbol and then have some stored procedures analyze that data to generate some reports in an excel file with that info. The text files include the column headers in the first row and the data starts on the second one.

The challenge is that the text files differ in column order and count every single day.

The analysis that I need to do only needs about 15 columns from the nearly 90-120 that those files include, and those columns sadly happen to be in a different order in those files.

Linked Server To Text Files: Is Possible To Detect Changes Made To Those Files? (SQL Server 2005)

Sep 3, 2007

Hi gurus,

I've created a linked server (and set up the corresponding schema.ini file) in order to perform bulk-inserts from some CSV text files into SQL tables (from my standpoint the text files are just for reading purposes). The linked server works fine (I can select the data in the files without a problem).

Now the question: is possible to automatically detect when one or more of those files change in order to start the import process automatically? Something like having a trigger created on the CSV files Or there's no easy way to do that so I have, to say something, to create a Job that periodically checks if the files have changed programatically (say, recording each file's timestamp everytime is imported and comparing the recorded value with the current one, or whatever)?


Thanks a lot in advance!

Import Multiple Txt Files

Sep 3, 2007

I have 8GB of text files which are basically log files from the past few years.
There is 24 text files per directory which are labeled for every day (so they are not all in 1 folder).
It would make reading them much easier if I could import them to SQL but I only seem to be able to import 1 at a time? (with the wizards :eek: )

Surely there is a way to mass import without all the costly applications that google searches give me?
cheers :P

Import From Multiple Files

Nov 4, 2014

I have a script which imports the contents of a csv file from our CRM system and updates a table in my database. This works OK but the problems I have are that a) sometimes there is more than one file in the folder, and b) that I wish to move any csv files that have been imported into an archive folder. The csv files arrive with a time/datestamp and I currently rename them manually to FREXPORT before importing (the name is in the format FREXPORT_20141101_1217.csv).How do I:

1) get it to process the file without me having to manually rename the file(s) each time,
2) if there is more than 1 file in the folder process all the files and 3)move the correctly processed files to an archive folder which is: importarchive?

Ultimately, I would like the script to be run as a scheduled job, so it also has to deal with the fact that sometimes there will be no files to import too.

[code]create table #import
(worknumber nvarchar(12), date_done smalldatetime)
BULK
Insert #import
from 'fork04-hq-dc01dataimportFREXPORT.csv'

[code]....

Import Of SPSS-files

Jun 4, 2007

Hello



i'm trying to find out if SSIS is a right toolbox for importing of many SPSS-files into the large market research data warehouse.



A simplified version of SPSS-datasheet looks like this:

- many columns (up to 3000). some of them are interview attributes (InterviewID, Date, etc.) and variables, representing survey questions

- relative few rows with "cases" or "interviews"

- in cells there are answers to the questions (in columns) by respondent (in rows)



As first step i would like to unpivot the dataset in the following way:

- Pass-Through: all interview attributes, that shouldn't be unpivoted

- Input Columns: rest 2990 columns

- Destination Column: Question

- Pivot Key Value Column Name: Answer



It works allright, except that i has to manually define destination column for all 2990 input columns, which takes a lot of time (multiplied by the number of SPSS-files i want to import). Is there a way to automate this (default value for destination column and/or scripting?)



Many thanks for your help!

Import Csv Files To Sql Server Problem

Sep 5, 2007

Hi,
I try to import csv files to Sql Server using .net. The code is as following:
string strCsvConn = @"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=;Extended Properties='text;HDR=Yes;FMT=Delimited(,)';";
using (OleDbConnection cn = new OleDbConnection(strCsvConn))
{
string strSQL = "SELECT * FROM " + strFileName;
OleDbCommand cmd = new OleDbCommand(strSQL, cn);
cn.Open();using (OleDbDataReader dr = cmd.ExecuteReader())
{
// Bulk Copy to SQL Server
using (SqlBulkCopy bulkCopy = new SqlBulkCopy(strSqlConn))
{
bulkCopy.DestinationTableName = strSqlTable;
bulkCopy.WriteToServer(dr);
}
}
}
And the data is as following (simplified):
Model,Serial
AFICIO 3045,K9464900965
AFICIO 3045,K9464900932
Fax 5510L,A3761290041
Fax 2210L,A4978800008
AFICIO 3025,K8565201014
AFICIO 3025,K8565102398
The result of the 2nd column is: 9464900965, 9464900932, null, null, 8565201014, 8565102398 - either the first character is missing or the whole entry is missing.
One more weird thing is that some other files work fine, though I am not able to tell any difference between them.
Any idea is hoghly appreciated.
