Default Importing .txt file - 06-29-2006 , 08:35 AM






I am importing a .txt file into a database using a DTS package. I've been
successful with this before but the file I have now is from IBM mainframe and
the dollar fields are packed.

Is there a way in transformations to unpack numeric fields?

Hello jim,

Can you use an Active Script transform to unpack the values?
