Issues Importing A Text File (tab Delimited) To A SQL Table
Dec 7, 2005I have a text file I am trying to import to a table. This text file is in a tab delimited format. I am using DTS to import the data to a new table I made. The fields are varchar and are set to allow nulls & allow 8,000 characters per field.
The error I am getting is that the data exceeds the allowed amount (or something like that) in col4.
Now I have checked everything in column 4 and nothing exceeds 5,000 spaces/characters combined. I have checked the entire sheet (in excel) for that fact, and there is not one single column/row/cell that exceeds 5,000 spaces/characters combined.
What the heck could be causing SQL to tell me I am trying to import too much data in one column when there is nothing that even comes close to 8,000 characters & spaces combined?
Problem Importing Csv Delimited Text File Into A Sql Server 2005 Table
Apr 25, 2006I am using the Bulk Insert command and trying to import a CSV delimited text file into a table and I am having problems with the quote field delimiters ", " The command below works but it takes in all the "" quotes as well and the field delimiter comma , works only if the commas are the separators only. If I have a comma within a address field for example then the data gets imported into the wrong fields. What can I use to identify that the text qualifier is ". I don't see where I can use the bulk insert command to determine this. Is there another command that I can use or am I using this command incorrectly. I thank you in advance for any response or suggestion you may have.
BULK INSERT AdventureWorks.dbo.MbAddress
FROM 'a:mbAddress.txt'
WITH (
DATAFILETYPE = 'char',
FIELDTERMINATOR=',',
ROWTERMINATOR='',
CODEPAGE = '1252',
KEEPIDENTITY,
KEEPNULLS,
FIRSTROW=2)
Here is a sample ascii file I am importing as well you can see that 6330 has a extra comma in the address line.

Importing A Null Delimited File

View 9 Replies View RelatedImporting A Comma Delimited File
Apr 12, 2006Hello...
I have a problem... When I insert data from a comma delimited
file using this mehod a flat file connection sorting, merge join and
inserting into the database I get "" around all the data!! The
quotes end up around the column names and everything! I had to go
in and manually remove the quotes in the text file to get some of my
data conversions to work. I know there is a better way. How
do I get SSIS to load the data without the quotes? This is an
example of the data in the file:
"1007","1","A","","Congratulations - No Health Violations Found","11/02/2005","1007"
When I remove the quotes I do not have any problems. How do I
do this without modifying the underlying data? Any ideas would be
greatly appreciated!!
Thank you for your help!

Sep 3, 2015I am struggling on using bcp to import data. Here is my steps:
1. I created a Test database on my localhost
2. In the Test database, I created a Test table, the query is here for your convenience:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Test](
[id] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[network_group_name] [varchar](128) NULL,
[IP] [varchar](15) NULL,
[OS] [varchar](128) NULL,
[Code] ....
I then create the format file used in bcp:
bcp Test.dbo.Test format nul -c -t, -f C:RXieSQLTest.fmt –T
Here is the format file:
9.0
8
1 SQLCHAR 0 12 "," 1 id ""
2 SQLCHAR 0 128 "," 2 network_group_name SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS
3 SQLCHAR 0 15 "," 3 IP SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS
[Code] ...
The data file is called 20150902FullTest.rpt and the first couple lines (first line is the header and followed by two rows) are posted here:

With the format file and the data file, I use the following bcp command:
bcp Test.dbo.Test in C:RxieSQL20150902FullTest.rpt -f C:RxieSQLTest.fmt -T
I got the following error messages:

I do want to mention here is the rpt file contains three BOM characters EF BB BF at the beginning of the file.
Creating And Importing Data From A CSV Or TXT File?
Jul 24, 2007I am using SQLServer 8.
I have several files that were FTP'd from our legacy COBOL system. I am in the process of cleaning them up and saving them into CSV format.
I was told that I could use the BCP utility to import them into a SQL database, but the documentation I have is not real clear on that.
Does anyone have any suggestions for how to import these files? I have created the database but not the tables.
Thanks.

Bulk Load From Text Delimited File To SQL Table
Dec 13, 2007Hi,
I am new to SSIS but i have avg working knowledge in sql.
My problem is as follows ,I have a text pipe dilimited file in some folder and the number of columns and the name of the column is not consistant. It can have N number of column and it can have any column names. I need to load this text file data into a sql table. All that i want is to load this file to SQL Database with some temp name. Once i get the table in SQL Database, i can match the column names of both taget table and this temp table and only push those column which matches with the target table. For this i can frame Dynamic SQL. This part is clear to me.
Now the problem is , I developed a SSIS pacakge to push the text file to SQL Table. I am able to do this. But if i change the column names or added new column SSIS is not able to push the new columns. Is this functionality available in SSIS, is it can be dynamic like this?
I hope i am clear with my prob... if need any clarification please let me know
thanks in advance

Creating A Tab Delimited Export
Sep 5, 2006Hello all,
I am trying customize the CSV rendering extension with different device information settings. I would loke to change the CSV extension to a Tab delimited output. However, whenever I add a new extension line to the RSReportServer.config file I run into problems.
1. What is the correct character to use in the delimiter to specify a Tab character? I seem to be unable to get this correct
2. Why when I override the name in the rendering extension does it still show up as the CSV (comma delimited) name in the export dropdown.
Here is my customized rendering extension.
<Extension Name="TXT" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.Rendering.CsvRenderer.CsvReport,Microsoft.ReportingServices.CsvRendering">
<OverrideNames>
<Name>TXT (Tab Delimited Text File)></Name>
</OverrideNames>
<Configuration>
<DeviceInfo>
<Encoding>ASCII</Encoding>
<FieldDelimiter><![CDATA[#x9]]></FieldDelimiter>
<NoHeader>true</NoHeader>

Creating Columns From A Comma Delimited Row
Aug 20, 2007Hi All
This is my first official post...very exciting:)
OK....
I need to split a string, based on comma delimetrs, into columns of a table.
I am using SQL Server 2005.
The plan is to use webmethods (Integration Software) to receive a flat file, loop through the records in that flat file and during each iteration of the loop call a SQL stored procedure that will split the record, based on comma delimetrs, into columns of a table.
A typical record will look like this:
AP05-07,ACTUAL,ZA01,......
I have looked at some of the past solutions to this type of post, but am battling to understand....
So if its possible, is there a simple way to create a stored procedure that will do this?
Many thanks

View 1 Replies View RelatedIntegration Services :: Importing Text File Into Table - Random Data Order
Aug 3, 2015I'm importing comma-delimited text files into a SQL table. The data imports in a seemingly random order. One time I import and the lines appear one way and the next time I import they import another way.
Is there a way to force the text files to import in the same order the data is found in the file?

Character Delimited BCP File
Feb 6, 2008Is there a faster way to create my pipe delimited BCP file, besides from creating a format file? Actually, my problem is that I am having issue with the file. It looks perfect, like:
Code Snippet
Marie|32|brown|single
Gay|33|black|married
But when I load it to DataStage it puts the entire row as one column. I already specified the | as the delimiter in DataStage. I think the issue is from the column collation. If my data is as simple as my example above, what column collation should i use for the format file? Currentyl, i have something like:
Code Snippet8.0
4
1 SYBCHAR 0 4 "|" 1 emp_id ""
2 SYBCHAR 0 4 "|" 2 emp_cand_id ""
3 SYBCHAR 0 4 "|" 3 emp_statusid ""
4 SYBCHAR 0 4 "
" 4 emp_type SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS
I generated this through prompts given by BCP for each column. Then I changed the 2nd column values all to SYBCHAR and 0 prefix length..

Aug 4, 2007I'm trying to upload a small Web application with a one table database. The hosting company, GoDaddy requires that I upload the database as a comma delimited file.
I created the database in Visual Web Developer Express but also have Visual Studio and SQL Server Management Studio Express.
I can't figure out how to export the database into a comma delimited file using any of these tools.
This should be simple like it is in Access but that doesn't seem to be the case. This is holding up deploying my Web Application.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks
