    Hi all,

    i need to import a file into sql table but i'm not familiar with the format or structure contained in the file. i tried excel but not much then SSIS. see attached file

    Tx

    It's better to fail while trying, rather than fail without trying!!!

    It looks like a string with "<|>" as a separator.

    You could replace those three character with a single delimiter (making sure it's not part of the current data) before the import and use this character as a delimiter. Or you could get the file it into SSIS, do the replacement during data processing and go from there.
