Data Transformation Services (DTS) allows you to import and export data from and to data sources (such as Microsoft Excel) that use an OLE DB provider. DTS replaces the Access import and export functions and also provides functions to: Export and import data to and from another SQL Server; export and import data to and from various formats such as Excel (XLS), Comma-Separated Values (CSV), and Microsoft Access; and, perform transformations on data.

Kenobewan - although DTS would be a handy way to import data from csv files into SQL, not all versions of SQL Server include DTS, such as MSDE.

82, what I would suggest is to open your file using a System.IO.Strea mReader, with reference to the path of your file. Use the StreamReader.Re adLine method to read a line from your file into a string, and parse the string using the string.Split('' ) method, to break it up into the data sections you need.

These can then be easily inserted into a SQL table.

Hope it helps!

DTS is a free download addon.
But yes, if you want to do in-application transfer then reading in the file and parsing it would be correct.
