I want to import an XML file in an Table. The XML file is on an Other Network location than the Database server I’m connected to and I have access to this location with my windows Credential.
I connect from my local PC to the Database server “RS1” with my Windows Credentials.
There I run this script
CREATE TABLE XMLwithOpenXML ( Id INT IDENTITY PRIMARY KEY, XMLData XML, LoadedDateTime DATETIME ) INSERT INTO XMLwithOpenXML(XMLData, LoadedDateTime) SELECT CONVERT(XML, BulkColumn) AS BulkColumn, GETDATE() FROM OPENROWSET(BULK '<Networkname><MAP>Name_.xml', SINGLE_BLOB) AS x;
I Get the error:
Msg 4861, Level 16, State 1, Line 10 Cannot bulk load because the file "<Networkname><MAP>Name_.xml'" could not be opened. Operating system error code 5(Access is denied.).
(<Networkname><MAP>Name_.xml' is not the real name )
So it looks like the openrowset connects to the network location with other credentials.
Where I can find (and change) the credentials which is used to connect to the network location?
I found this article on MSDN (Security Considerations) but cannot find solution [URL] .....

Hi folks. I am having an excel file. I need to import this file to database and update some other tables with data contained in this file. I would like to automate this process as much as possible. Now, I am just using SQL Server Import Wizard to create a table and then I am running an update query. Is there any (more automate) way to do this?
Hey guys, I have a dilemma and hope someone can help.
I don't know of any utilities or commands in SQL that do this but I hope someone does.
What I need to do is something like a bcp import a text file in. I can do that with DTS as well. But what I wanted to do is create a table on the import. So lets say, I am importing a tab-delimited file with column names as the first row that is called ax.txt. On import, it would create the table ax with the column names in the file and then import the data into that table.
I hope I explained it clearly. Please let me know if there is anything I can use to do this without writing lots of code.
I have an idea how to do it the long way but hope there is a utility that already does it.
I am a relative newbie to SQL but I've written many queries for vb.net/.net code...I'm not an absolute beginner.
I'd like to import a text file into a sql database so that I can use SQL Reporting Services to report on the data. Here is a sample of the first 8 textfile records. All of the 6 potential database fields are separated by a comma and no spaces:
The description for field datatypes of the first record above is:
1 (this is an autonumber, should be a number for ordering) 12/4/06 4:12:11 PM (date and time, can be converted to text if necessay) 67.13 (number, 2 decimal spaces) 70.50 (number, 2 decimal spaces) 71.56 (number, 2 decimal spaces) 8.23 (number, 2 decimal spaces)
The textfile is big, 97K records. I have SQL 2005 installed on my PC.
Can anyone out there please help me with the import or SQL statement to create a SQL table from this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I have the following code to import .csv file into my table in excel. It's being inserted into a table. dbo.ImportedPromoPricing. Table and the .csv file have 3 fields price, code and selling price.
Once import is completed I want to use the data in my dbo.ImportedPromoPricing to update another table dbo.MasterPricing. Records need to be compared and updated or appended if needed. in case of update only price will be updated. this is the beginning of my code
USE [Reporting] GO /****** Object: StoredProcedure [dbo].[ImportPromoPricing] Script Date: 03/03/2014 14:04:01 ******/ SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
I have several bcp output files I need to import into tables. I do not have format files for them. As far as I know they are in native format. I do not know the layout of the destination table they would populate.
1) how can I determine from the bcp file itself the schema of the destination table? Once I know that I should be able to import the data into the table.
I have table schema and text data file. After create the table, and then import the text data file. However, the text file always overwrite the table schema.
How could I using existing table schema to import the text file?
How do i import a Varying Column Width Flat file into a Table using SSIS?
I have a flat file that has 4 columns with varying width Like I should read the file as Col 1 - (1 to 10 Characters) Col 2 - (12 to 21 Characters) Col 3 - (22 to 35 Characters) Col 4 - (36 to 38 Characters) At the end of the record is a "LF"
I think "Fixed Width" Columns allow me to define a standard column length for all the columns.. Right?
I am importing Differennt Excels Files into table. my require ment is after importing completed I need to insert all these Filenames ,File creation date into table. (for Auditing).
I created a simple SSIS package that takes a Flat File Source (CSV file) and Imports it into a OLE DB Destination ([TestCSVImport].dbo.Table1). I have other CSV files I'd like to import, but I don't want to import entries where column "ordereID" (PK) are the equal. Just want to import the new data found in the CSV files. I tried adding a Lookup in-between the Flat File Source and the OLE DB Destination, but I'm not sure how to accomplish only importing new data.
I have a record in an Excel format (Excel 2010) and I would like to bulk import that into SQL Server 2008 and also while importing, SQL Server will automatically create a new table based on the header fields or row of the source file.
I am not sure if SQL Server 2008 has this capabilities.
when trying to ímport 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.
I'm moving data between identical tables and have to use a flat file as an intermediary. I thought: "No problem, SSIS can do a quick export to a file, then move the file to another server, then use SSIS to import the data to the new server."
Seems simple, right?
I'm hitting all sorts of surprising data conversion errors. I used the export wizard to create the export package. This works fine. However using the same flat file definition, the import package fails -- even when I have no destination. That is I have just one data flow task that contains only one control: the Flat File source. When I run the package the flat file definition fails with data type conversion and truncation errors. One of the obvious errors is for boolean types. The SQL field is a bit, SSIS defined the column as DT_BOOL, the output of the data are literal text values "TRUE" and "FALSE". So SSIS converts a sql datatype of bit to "TRUE" and "FALSE" on export, but can't make the reverse conversion on import?
Does anyone else find this surprising? I would expect that what SSIS exports, it can import given all the same table and flat file definitions. Is SSIS the wrong tool to do such simple bulk copies? I'd like to avoid using BCP because this process will need to run automatically within SQL Agent so we can leverage all the error tracking and system monitoring.
A view named "Viw_Labour_Cost_By_Service_Order_No" has been created and can be run successfully on the server. I want to import the data which draws from the view to a table using SQL Server Import and Export Wizard.

Does anyone encounter this problem before and know what is happening?

Im looking to write a DTS script to import a CSV file into an existing table. I have made sure that all columns correspond. I ideally want to create a stored procedure and a variable to be entered as the file name.
