Yes, it also works with MS SQL Server now. A nice tool to have around

Something like this :
C1$C2$C3$C4$C5$C6$C7$C8$C9$C10$C11$C12$C13$C14$C15$C16$C17$C18$C19$C20$C21$C22$C23$
5476771$6638853$I$$5476771-2$$$20071003$DIR$$$$$$N$$$20071003$OT$$N$N$UNITED STATES$
5476957$6689344$I$$5476957-7$20070927$$20071002$DIR$$$59$YR$F$N$142$LBS$20070930$OT$$N$Y$UNITED STATES$
I worte the following Query for Bulk Insert:
BULK INSERT dbo.tb_DEMO
FROM 'C:\DEMO08Q1.TXT'
WITH
(
FIELDTERMINATOR ='$'
)
I am facing 2 problems in this:
1: I have to delete the column Names from the file and then fire this query.
2: If I delete the column Names then it works but in the last column the data is inserted with $. example: UNITED STATES$
Please help me....
Thanks in Advance.

I would assume you have SQL 2005, look into the information schema views, in management studio under views|system views
If you are in an earlier version you are going to have to make them up using sysobjects and syscolumns.

Man thats ugly, got to be one on the lousiest data structures around.
Joins are not going to do it. You will need to use sub selects.
select <br />
(Select name from name where ID = ID1) name1,<br />
(Select name from name where ID = ID2) name2, <br />
(Select name from name where ID = ID3) name3<br />
from ID

Need more info but just from the sound of it you should be using 1 record with nested records in XML using XML data type. If you are using a queue you are using xml for the conversation.

I'm guessing that the remote server does not have Mixed Mode Authentication enabled.

hi,
go through this
http:
and then also if your problem occurs then
"This is caused by trying to connect to SQL Server when SQL Server is not configured for Mixed Mode authentication."
