Default Importing a text file - 09-08-2005 , 09:01 AM






I am trying to import a file that is space delimited and new line as the row
delimiter. Is it possible to import a file with a space delimiter via DTS -
I tried a few things and was not successfull. We are running SQL 2000.

thanks
Meenal

When creating package, select file is Delimited, then select other in the
Specify Column Delimiter Dialog and enter a single space.
