HiI'm trying to import data from dbf files into sql 2005 tables. I'm using the following syntax to import all the files,although some files import but others are producing the following an error. Any help would be much appreciated.SELECT * FROM OPENROWSET('MSDASQL','Driver={Microsoft dBase Driver (*.dbf)};DBQ=C:\Med2000\029\','SELECT * FROM FMDDR')OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "(null)" returned message "[Microsoft][ODBC dBase Driver] Unexpected error from external database driver (10023).".Msg 7350, Level 16, State 2, Line 1Cannot get the column information from OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "(null)". |

Hi Vinnie881, from my point of view, it is too complicated, have you heard about easier ways? For example, this job can be automated by the sql 2005 in recovery program that can be found here: http://www.recoverytoolbox.com/microsoft_sql_server_database_recovery_download.html, Recovery Toolbox for SQL Server quickly eliminates error messages and reindexes affected databases |
