Bruce:
I just did the same thing recently. You can create and save your DTS
package
on the server, and then you can call via a stored procedure in CF. Here's
the
SP code:
CREATE PROCEDURE qryClientImport AS
DECLARE @object int
DECLARE @hr int
--create a package object
EXEC @hr = sp_OACreate 'DTS.Package', @object OUTPUT
if @hr <> 0
BEGIN
print 'error create DTS.Package'
RETURN
END
EXEC @hr = sp_OAMethod @object, 'LoadFromStorageFile', NULL, 'F:\Temp\FILE
NAME HERE.dts', ''
IF @hr <> 0
BEGIN
print 'error LoadFromStorageFile'
RETURN
END
EXEC @hr = sp_OAMethod @object, 'Execute'
IF @hr <> 0
BEGIN
print 'Execute failed'
RETURN
END
Hope this helps.
Joel

Subject: Importing a text file into SQL Server
> Hello list. I have a text file that is comma and double-quote separated,
with a line break that separates the lines. The first row contains the
header information. What I am wanting to do is to import this into a SQL
Server 2K table. I know that I can use DTS to do this, but I need to do this
in ColdFusion code instead as a scheduled task. I have always in the past
just used DTS Wizard to do this, not straight SQL. So, my question is, how
do you import a text file into SQL Server? What would my query look like?
