I try to import data with bulk insert. Here is my table:
CREATE TABLE [data].[example](
col1 [varchar](10) NOT NULL,
col2 [datetime] NOT NULL,
col3 [date] NOT NULL,
col4 [varchar](6) NOT NULL,
col5 [varchar](3) NOT NULL,
[Code] ....
My format file:
10.0
7
1 SQLCHAR 0 10 "@|@" 2 Col2 ""
1 SQLCHAR 0 10 "@|@" 3 Col3 ""
2 SQLCHAR 0 6 "@|@" 4 Col4 Latin1_General_CI_AS
[Code] .....
The first column should store double (in col2 and col3) in my table
My file:
Col1,Col2,Col3,Col4,Col5,Col6,Col7
2015-04-30@|@MDDS@|@ADP@|@EUR@|@185.630624@|@2015-04-30@|@MDDS
2015-04-30@|@MDDS@|@AED@|@EUR@|@4.107276@|@2015-04-30@|@MDDS
My command:
bulk insert data.example
from 'R:epoolexample.csv'
WITH(FORMATFILE = 'R:cfgexample.fmt' , FIRSTROW = 2)
Get error:
Msg 4823, Level 16, State 1, Line 2
Cannot bulk load. Invalid column number in the format file "R:cfgexample.fmt".
I changed some things as:
used ";" and "," as column delimiter
changed file type from UNIX to DOS and adjusted the format file with "
" for row delimiter
Removed this line from format file
1 SQLCHAR 0 10 "@|@" 2 Col2 ""
Nothing works ....

I want to use the bulk insert statement to insert data from a text file that contains more columns than the target sql table does. I am using SQL 7.0.
I am using a format file, but I can't work out how to achieve the above. SQL books online (and the msdn website) do not describe how to do this, but it is intimated that it can be done.
Any suggestions ?
Regards,
Stuart.

Hello, I am doing a bulk insert using a XML Format file from a csv file. Most everything works just fine, but my delimiter is a , the problem is one of the column sets sometimes contains a , within "" like this:
value1,"value,2",value3
So when I do my insert it is distorting the column values because unlike excel it is not ignoring the comma within the quotes. Is there any way to set an attribute within the format file to prevent this from happening?

Cannot bulk load. Invalid column number in the format file "C:sampleXXXX.fmt"
Any one can help me what is the problem here?
I am using SQL Server 2000.

Hi ,
I was wondering if there was a way in a format file to load a host file data field to more than one column in a table?

My problem is that once inserted, column 35(childDetails) and 36(specialConditions) are being merged into one. I think it may be an error with one of the values i have for the terminator in the format file but im unsure what exactly.
Does anyone have any ideas?

Hey All,
Similar to a previous post (http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=244646&SiteID=1), I am trying to import data into a SQL Table.
I am trying to program a small application that will import product data obtained through suppliers via CD-ROM. One supplier in particular uses Fixed width colums, and data looks like this:
Example of Data
0124015Apple Crate 32.12
0124016Bananna Box 12.56
0124017Mango Carton 15.98
0124018Seedless Watermelon 42.98
My Table would then have:
ProductID as int
Name as text
Cost as money
How would I go about extracting the data with an XML Format file? I am stumbling over how to tell it where to start picking up data for a specific column.
Is there any way that I could trim the Name column (i.e.: "Mango Carton " --> "Mango Carton")?
I don't know if it makes any difference, but I've been calling SQL from my code by doing this:
Code in C# Form
SqlConnection SqlConnection = new SqlConnection(global::SQLClients.Properties.Settings.Default.ClientPhonebookConnectionString);
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand();
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
cmd.CommandText = "INSERT INTO PhonebookTable(Name, PhoneNumber) VALUES('" + txtName.Text.ToString() + "', '" + txtPhoneNumber.Text.ToString() + "')";
cmd.Connection = SqlConnection;
SqlConnection.Open();
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
SqlConnection.Close();
RefreshData();
I am running Visual Studio C# Express 2005 and SQL Server Express 2005.
Thanks for your time,
Hayden.

I'm trying to use Bulk insert for the first time and getting the following error. I think it might have something to do with my Format File and from the error msg there's a conversion error for the first column. In my database the Field is nvarchar(6) so my best guess is to use SQLNChar for the first column. I've checked the end of each line is CR LF therefore the is correct for line 7 right?
Msg 4863, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Bulk load data conversion error (truncation) for row 1, column 1 (ASXCode).
Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1

Msg 4862, Level 16, State 1, Server PATH-SQLDEV, Line 2
Cannot bulk load because the file "c:DATABATCHBCPFormat.fmt" could not be read. Operating system error code (null).
Above is the error I get. The problem is I do not know what is causing this error. It occurs when I attempt to use SQLCMD with bulk insert.
I am using SQLserver 2005 and I have a similar set up in a test database that works, why this format file does not is beyond me, but my experience is when the format file has an error in it, such as a mispelled datatype or a incorrect column number, the error will zero in on that, rather then declare the entire file unreadable. Furthermore if I go into the file, change something so where it is incorrect (like a column number) it will zero in on that error. So I know that the format file can be read. If I knew what this error was all about I would at least know where to begin in fixing it. I have also tried using a very small sample file for the data being inserted. Same error.
Please 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.

With "bcp MyDatabase.dbo.MyTable out C:MyFile.Dat -n -T" command line, I could get an exported data file. And I can also import this file into MyTable using 'BULK INSERT MyDatabase.dbo.MyTable FROM 'C:MyFile.dat' WITH (DATAFILETYPE='native');' query statement.
Now, I want to make my own data file just like made by bcp above. Although I could make file of 'char' type, 'native' type file is needed for performance and other reasons. And the format file should not be used.
Any one help?

As part of a c# program, utilizing .Net 2.0, I am calling a sproc via a SqlCommand to bulk load data from flat files to a various tables in a SQL Server 2005 database. We are using format files to do this, as all of the incoming flat files are fixed length. The sproc simply calls a T-SQL BULK INSERT statement, accepting the file name, format file name and the database table as input paramaters. As expected, this works most of the time, but periodically (to often for a production environment), the insert fails. The particular file to fail is essentially random and when I rerun the process, the insert completes successfully.
A sample of the error messages returned is as follows (@sql is the string executed):
Cannot bulk load. Invalid destination table column number for source column 1 in the format file "\RASDMNTTRAS_ROOTBCP_Format_FilesEMODT3.fmt".
Starting spRAS_BulkInsertData.
@sql = BULK INSERT Raser.dbo.EMODT3_Work FROM '\RASDMNTTRAS_ROOTAmeriHealthworkpdclmsemodt3.20060511.0915.txt.DATA' WITH (FORMATFILE = '\RASDMNTTRAS_ROOTBCP_Format_FilesEMODT3.fmt');
The format file for this particular example is as follows (I apologize for the length):

Hello dbforums,
I are using a BULK INSERT to insert the data from a ascii file to a sql table. The table has a ProductInstanceId column that exists in the tables but does not exist in the ascii DICast data. I am setting the ProductInstanceId to a Guid that will be used for Metrics. I would like to create the Guid in C++ and then set it somehow during the BULK INSERT DICastRaw1hr and DICastRaw6hr. I am calling the BULK INSERT from C++/ADO. I do not see how you can set a static data in the BULK INSERT for a column that exists in the table but does not the source data ... seems there should be a way to do this with the format file?
The other way to do this is with a TRIGGER. I have the TRIGGER below. Prior to the calling the BULK INSERT using ADO I will use ADO to ALTER the TRIGGER with the new Guid. When the BULK INSERT runs the ProductInstanceId will be populated with the new Guid.
ALTER TRIGGER DICastRaw1hrInsertGuid
ON Alphanumericdata.dbo.DICastRaw1hr
FOR INSERT AS UPDATE dbo.DICastRaw1hr SET ProductInstanceId = '4f9a44eb-092b-445b-a224-cc7cdd207092'
WHERE modelrundatetime = (select max(modelrundatetime) from Alphanumericdata.dbo.DICastraw1hr(NOLOCK))
More Questions:
- The Trigger is slow. The Bulk Insert without the Trigger runs in about 10 sec ... with the Trigger in about 40 sec. I tried to use the sql code below in the TRigger but it was only doing the UPDATE on the last row. The TRIGGER must run after the BULK INSERT is complete. Now I am using the select (bad). Any comments ...
ALTER TRIGGER DICastRaw1hrInsertDate
ON Alphanumericdata.dbo.DICastRaw1hr
FOR INSERT
AS
DECLARE @ID as integer
SELECT @ID = i.recordid from inserted i
UPDATE dbo.DICastRaw1hr SET ProductInstanceId = '4f9a44eb-092b-445b-a224-cc7cdd207092'
WHERE recordid = @ID
- I understand that I could set the Guid in the Default Value part of the table definition using the NEWID() function. I need the Guid to be the same for all the rows that are inserted during the BULK INSERT (all have the same modelrundatetime) ... how would I do this?
Thanks,
Chris

I have a CSV file that I am trying to bulk load into a temp table. The data in the file is all jumbled together, as in, there does not appear to be a row terminator. However, I do see a bunch of little rectangular boxes that I assume are the row terminators.
When I run the bulk insert, the data is treated as one string. For example... If I have 10 columns in the table, the 10 columns will be populated, but the remainder of the data is dumped into the last column.
Here are the row terminators I have used so far that haven't worked.

My colleague is working on bulk insert task from SSIS and since the data file does not contain any valid delimeter one of the suggestion he got is to use a file format to address the issue. Thus a bcp command is used to generate the format file, as per below.
bcp <database name>.dbo.<table name> format nul -T -S <server name> -n -f out.fmt
The file file format was generated, from the data flow we added the BULK INSERT task and set the properties accordingly including the File Format and location of the file. Upon running the task itself we encountered the error as per below.
[Bulk Insert Task] Error: An error occurred with the following error message: "Cannot bulk load. The file "C:HFISTAT.fmt" does not exist.".
Progress: The Bulk Insert task is completed. - 100 percent complete
Task Bulk Insert Task failed
Have checked the file and it is in C: drive and it is not protected or read-only. Validated the output file and it is as per expected. Any help would be appreciated very much.

Hi all,
ISSUE:
====================
In SQL 2005 (sp2) I get the following error when preforming a bulk
insert with an associated xml format file:
"Could not bulk insert. Unknown version of format file"
Question:
====================
I am unsure what they mean by "unknown version". Specifically the
format file in question was created using bcp. Also the entire table
scenario was created from a msdn example.
Any ideas? have you seen this before?
NOTE: i can reproduce this issue outside the example but will refer to
msdn considering it is simple and easily reproducible.
Scenario
====================
I can reproduce this error with the BULK INSERT example discussed on
msdn (example A)
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms191234.aspx
TO REPRODUCE:
* In short the table structure is:
Person (Age int, FirstName varchar(20), LastName varchar(30))
* Data File Template:
Age<tab>Firstname<tab>Lastname<return>
* xml file format from bcp (and described on msdn)
<?xml version="1.0"?>

</BCPFORMAT>
* Here is some the actual sql statement that pulls this all together
BULK INSERT mytestnames
FROM 'C:datatestexampledata-c.Dat'
WITH (FORMATFILE = 'C:datatestexamplefmt.Fmt');
Thanks in advanced for any feedback.
Cheers!

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
7999162 09182003 56586 56477 3601942 1279 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),
ORDER_DATE_KEY NUMERIC (10,0),
PATIENT_KEY NUMERIC (10,0),
ORDER_KEY NUMERIC (10,0),
PROVIDER_KEY NUMERIC (10,0),
LOCATION_KEY NUMERIC (10,0),
ORDER_TYPE_KEY NUMERIC (10,0),
STATUS_KEY NUMERIC (10,0),
PRIMARY_INSURANCE_KEY NUMERIC (10,0),
EXISTENCE NUMERIC (1,0),
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...
9.0
17
1 SQLNUMERIC 0 10 "" 1 TRACER_ID ""
2 SQLCHAR 0 8 "" 2 DB_CREATE_DATE ""
3 SQLCHAR 0 8 "" 3 DB_UPDATED_DATE ""
4 SQLNUMERIC 0 10 "" 4 CREATE_DATE_KEY ""
5 SQLNUMERIC 0 10 "" 5 ORDER_DATE_KEY ""
6 SQLNUMERIC 0 10 "" 6 PATIENT_KEY ""

16 SQLNUMERIC 0 10 "" 16 ACTIVITY_TRACER_ID ""
17 SQLNUMERIC 0 10 "
" 17 AGE_KEY ""
However... actually running this gives the following error...
Msg 4863, Level 16, State 4, Line 1
Bulk load data conversion error (truncation) for row 1, column 13 (EXISTENCE).
Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1

Msg 7330, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Cannot fetch a row from OLE DB provider "BULK" for linked server "(null)".
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...
"7999163 "
CREATE TABLE MQIC.DBO.ORDER_F
(
TRACER_ID NUMERIC (10,0)
)
and
9.0
1
1 SQLNUMERIC 0 10 " " 1 TRACER_ID ""
or
9.0
1
1 SQLNUMERIC 0 10 "" 1 TRACER_ID ""
which give this error...
Msg 9803, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Invalid data for type "numeric".
The statement has been terminated.
or
9.0
1
1 SQLNUMERIC 0 10 "/r/n" 1 TRACER_ID ""
which gives this 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
The OLE DB provider "BULK" for linked server "(null)" reported an error. The provider did not give any information about the error.
Msg 7330, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Cannot fetch a row from OLE DB provider "BULK" for linked server "(null)".
Also - there was the DB_CREATE_DATE and DB_UPDATED_DATE CHAR (8) were supposed to be dates in the format of mmddyyy but clearly there is no Date datatype in SQL-Server. I would suppose these need to be converted, but am unsure how. What is clear is that the data was dumped from Oracle in text form,
Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated...
Thanks!

How do I do a bulk insert into a temp table from a text file. Text file looks like that:
ver_id TYPE
E57AB326-803C-436E-B491-398A255C919A 58
34D2A601-6BBA-46B1-84E1-3A805FDA3812 58
986E140C-62F1-48F1-B428-3571EBF00DA0 58
My statement looks like this:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[tblTemp]([ver_id] [nvarchar](255), [TYPE] [smallint])
GO
BULK INSERT [dbo].[tblTemp]
FROM 'C:v2.txt'
I keep receiving errors.
The error I receive is: Bulk load data conversion error (type mismatch or invalid character for the specified codepage) for row 1, column 2 (TYPE).

I am running Microsoft SQL Server 2012 SP on a Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard SP1 box. The SQL Server service is running as a simple windows domain user (nothing special, no admin rights, etc.) I am having some issues with using Bulk Insert when the data file is on a network share when using Windows Authentication. What is known is that the SQL Server service account has access to the network resource, which is shown by logging into SQL Server with a SQL account and doing the Bulk Insert. I also have rights to the files on the share, as shown by the fact that I put the files there. My SQL is in the form of:
Bulk Insert [table name] From '[server][share][filename]' With (FirstRow = 2, FormatFile='FormatFile.xml')
Now, when connecting to SQL Server with Windows Authentication and running the Bulk Insert I get the following error:
Msg 4861, Level 16, State 1, Line 2 Cannot bulk load because the file "[server][share][filename]" could not be opened. Operating system error code 5(Access is denied.).
I found this snip at
BULK INSERT (Transact-SQL)Security Account Delegation (Impersonation), which says, in part (emphasis mine):
To resolve this error [4861], use SQL Server Authentication and specify a SQL Server login that uses the security profile of the SQL Server process account, or configure Windows to enable security account delegation. For information about how to enable a user account to be trusted for delegation.
How to Configure the Server to be Trusted for Delegation, and we tried the unconstrained delegation and I rebooted the SQL server, but it still does not work. Later we tried constrained delegation and it still does not work.
I have verified the SPNs:
C:>setspn adsvc_sqlRegistered ServicePrincipalNames for CN=SVC_SQL,OU=Service Accounts,OU=Users,OU=ad domain,DC=ad,DC=local: MSSQLSvc/SQLQA.ad.local:1433 MSSQLSvc/SQLDev.ad.local:1433 MSSQLSvc/SQLQA.ad.local MSSQLSvc/SQLDev.ad.local
I have verified that my SQL connection is TCP and I am getting/using a Kerberos security token.
C:>sqlcmd -S tcp:SQLQA.ad.local,1433 -E1> Select dec.net_transport, dec.auth_scheme From sys.dm_exec_connections As dec Where session_id = @@Spid;2>
gonet_transport auth_scheme------------- -----------TCP KERBEROS(1 rows affected)1>
If I move the source file to a local drive (on the SQL server), all works fine, but I must be able to read from a file share?

we can easily load a file into db tables. However, my main concern here is the number of columns in the file. A text file TEXT_1400.txt has 1400 columns. I am unable to load data to my db table using BCP or BULK INSERT commands, as maximum of 1024 columns are allowed per table in SQL Server 2008.
We can still go ahead and create ‘Wide Table’ (a special table that holds up to 30,000 columns. The maximum size of a wide table row is 8,019 bytes.). But when operating on wide table, BCP/BULK INSERT commands still fail. After few hours of scratching my head over BCP and BULK INSERT, I observed that while inserting BCP/BULK INSERT commands are unable to identify SPARSE columns and skip these columns, which disturbs column mapping and results in data conversion and trancation errors.
Is there any proper way to load this kind of files into the db table?

I used bcp to produce the apended format file.How can it be modified to recognize the quotes that surround the textfields and not insert the quotes along with the text? Invariably, thefirst four columns have text surrounded by quotes and are terminated bytabs. If the first column has "abc", only abc ought to be insertedinto that field in the table.ThanksTed==================format file========================<?xml version="1.0" ?>- <BCPFORMATxmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sqlserver/2004/bulkload/format"xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">- <RECORD><FIELD ID="1" xsi:type="CharPrefix" PREFIX_LENGTH="2" MAX_LENGTH="6"COLLATION="Latin1_General_CI_AI" /><FIELD ID="2" xsi:type="CharPrefix" PREFIX_LENGTH="2" MAX_LENGTH="7"COLLATION="Latin1_General_CI_AI" /><FIELD ID="3" xsi:type="CharPrefix" PREFIX_LENGTH="2" MAX_LENGTH="48"COLLATION="Latin1_General_CI_AI" /><FIELD ID="4" xsi:type="NativeFixed" LENGTH="4" /><FIELD ID="5" xsi:type="CharPrefix" PREFIX_LENGTH="2" MAX_LENGTH="8"COLLATION="Latin1_General_CI_AI" /><FIELD ID="6" xsi:type="NativePrefix" PREFIX_LENGTH="1" /></RECORD>- <ROW><COLUMN SOURCE="1" NAME="f_supplier_code" xsi:type="SQLVARYCHAR" /><COLUMN SOURCE="2" NAME="f_product_code" xsi:type="SQLVARYCHAR" /><COLUMN SOURCE="3" NAME="f_product_name" xsi:type="SQLVARYCHAR" /><COLUMN SOURCE="4" NAME="f_asset_classes_id" xsi:type="SQLINT" /><COLUMN SOURCE="5" NAME="f_size" xsi:type="SQLVARYCHAR" /><COLUMN SOURCE="6" NAME="f_dist_unit" xsi:type="SQLFLT8" /></ROW></BCPFORMAT>

Hi there,
I got a few *.csv files which I have to import in a table. The Insert looks like this:
bulk insert actocashdb.dbo.MyTable
from 'c:UpdatesPLUArtikel_01.csv'
with ( fieldterminator = ';',
DATAFILETYPE = 'char',
tablock,
codepage = 'ACP'
)
There is a field which contains a Date and Time in US-Format (e.g. 08/15/2007 03:15:00 PM). Some of my SQL - Servers
(in fact they are just MSDE) are configured as German language. So, when I try to Insert the File I get a Type Mismatch Error, because the MSDE awaits the Date in German Format (e.g. 15.08.2007 15:15:00). Are there any
options somewhere so I can Insert this Date? NOTE: It is not possible to reconfigure the MSDE to English.
Any help would be appreciated!
Lars

I have a file which has some wind data that i am trying to import into a sql data base through bulk insert. if the script works as it supposed i should see 144 rows impacted but i see 0 rows affected.
BULK INSERT TOWER.RAWINTERFACE_1058 FROM 'C:Temp900020150427583.txt'
WITH(CHECK_CONSTRAINTS,CODEPAGE='RAW',DATAFILETYPE='char',FIELDTERMINATOR=' ',ROWTERMINATOR='
',FIRSTROW=172)
The code works if the file is large but if its small 0 rows are affected. and also if i remove the header rows then the file works again. want to understand what is going on here. i am including the screen shot of the file in notepad++. I have tried changing the row terminator to ' ' , ' ' and also tried to change the codepage but nothing seems to work. No error file is being generated either, if i give a error file option.

Need to know a mode whereby somehow I can every time insert an additional column in a table while bulk inserting data to an existing table from a new flat file thus identifying the file from which, or the time when, the data was inserted in an existing table.

SQL Server 2012
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 am using a BCP format file to import a CSV file. The file looks like the following:
"01","02"
The format file looks like the following:
6.0
2
1 SQLCHAR 0 0 """ 0 ""
2 SQLINT 0 0 "","" 1 MROS
3 SQLINT 0 0 ""
" 2 MROF
When both the two fields are set to SQLCHAR data types the data imports successfully without the quotes as 01 and 02. These fields will always be numbers and I want them as integers so I set the data type to int in the database and SQLINT in the format file. The results was that the 01 became 12592 and the 02 became 12848. where these numbers are coming from?
