| Hi Guys,I have a table with 20 column and a flat text file with exact 20 column separated by vertical bar(|). I setup a DTS package to automate the bulk insert. It work great but I want to add an additional column call "UpdatedDatetime". How can I setup the DTS package to update the last column "UpdatedDatetime" with the current datatime the text file being updated? Is it possible with another way? |

| Add a column to the table with a default of getdate().Might need to insert into a view which excludes that column.Why dts? bulk insert should do it.==========================================Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.SSIS can be used in a similar way.Beer is not cold and it isn't fizzy. |
