How To Prepare Data in Text Files for DTS to Import?
✍: Guest
Sometimes you have data organized in rows and columns and stored in text files. You can import data from text files to SQL Server database tables using the DTS wizard. But you need to prepare data text files with the following questions in mind:
Here is a sample text file, C:\temp\fyi_articles.tab, containing the following rows and columns:
id title author rank submitted 1001 PHP Cookies John King 936 01-Jun-2005 1002 File Upload Larry Gate 341 07-Jul-2006 1003 SQL Server FYIcenter.com 7003 01-Jul-2007
Values are not quoted, because tab characters are used as column delimiters, and tab characters are not appearing in any data values.
