Hi,

I'm trying to import a text file into sql server 2005. I assume I can do this by creating a Data Transformation Project in Visual Studio under Business Intelligence Projects?

I've found a few examples but I haven't got the template in Visual Studio. Does anybody know what I need to do?

Hi - The easiest way to do this is to right-click your database in object explorer and select tasks --> import data. Follow the wizard through, and check the option to save the package.

Thanks,

That looks usefull but can you use that to import into a specific table rather than create a new table? Can't see where you can select a specific table
