Default importing multiple textfiles - 11-02-2004 , 04:43 AM






Hi,

I've dts package where i import a textfile with over a 1000 colums. Only the
first six columns i use to import to a normalized table (never mind the
other columns, i'll worry about them later).

My question is, how can i import multiple texfiles based on my dts package.
I don't want to manually import several hundreds of textfiles.

Can anyone help me on this?

Hi,

Thnx for the link, it was very useful. However i can''t manage to apply it
to my situation. Do you know a another exaple to import multiple file which
has different names. All files goes to the same destination table.

Greetings,
