DTS Import/Export error reading CSV

  • Hi All,

    I have a problem with running DTS import on a new instance of SQL Server 2000 (SP3) on Windows Server 2003. The wizard can navigate to the csv source file but can't read it. The error when trying to proceed is "The file you have selected has a size of 0. Select another file with a valid size."

    Has anybody run into this issue before?

    Any advice greatly appreciated!

    Thanks,

    Megan

  • Megan,

    The error message 'The file you have selected has a size of 0. Select

    another file with a valid size' is caused by the control bytes of the record. Go to this dBforums archive for microsoft.public.data.odbc

    URL http://dbforums.com/arch/212/2002/10/517677. It has more info for you on how to resolve the issue. It looks like it may be a little work.

    All the best,

    Dale

  • The DTS wizard needs data in the file to analyze it to attempt to find column(s). Edit the file to put at least one line with data matching the columns of the intended table.

    Far away is close at hand in the images of elsewhere.
