Some would say use the Import Data wizard in SQL server, but If you want just one table, I'd say make the table by hand with either a CREATE TABLE statement, or use Enterprise manager. The reason is when you do the "upsize wizard" or Import data wizard, it makes all of your text fields into an nVarChar, instead of a VarChar.

If you want to move both the data AND the table, use the wizard, and make sure you specify the correct field datatypes when you use the wizard.
