Default Re: SQL Error: Text file size of zero - 06-03-2004 , 03:40 AM






Hi

Posting and error number or exact message may help diagnosis of this
problem! A couple of possibilities could be: the file is unicode which may
be causing a problem, the account opening the file does not have permission
(especially if a job!), MDAC has not been installed correctly (use the
component checker to see!).

When I attempt to import a text file or flat file in sql I get an error
that the file is of size zero. I installed it the same day on a Hewlett
Packard machine and the text file import works fine. I have downloaded all
the updates, reinstalled sql and xp twice. So i know thats not a
possibility. I was just wondering if anyone else has had this problem with
dells or if it is a common install error.
