CSV File Extract

  • Hello

    Does anyone know how I can extract multiple CSV files into a database table. CSV files are dumped every two hrs from an outsourcing team and I want to develop a package that will extract the CSV file once it has been dumped. (the CSV files are numbered as, CSV.01, CSV.02, CSV.03 and so on)

  • you can use a foreach loop to loop through the files in a directory, then use a dataflow task to pass the data across to your database.

  • Put a little thinking into the process and then proceed to draw it on visio or something that will visualize it. then proceed to findout

    what is available in SSIS. I guess what I am saying, there are many ways to accomplish anything if you just sit and work into putting some little thinking.

  • How you handle this is also dependent on processing requirements. To you have to process the files as they are created or as a batch over time (ie you may process 1 or more files depending on what is there waiting to be processed).

    Also, what do you do with the file(s) once processed, archive or delete?

    This is an overview, of what is intended, maybe that will give you a logical view of the process.
