Default import html file error - 12-16-2004 , 11:55 AM






Im trying to import an html file using dts. When I click on the file when
using dts designer, I get the message:

External table is not in the expected format.

Any ideas?

Does the error not say it all? The HTML connection cannot
parse/recognise a valid html table in that file. No table, no import.
