Import text file

  • I'm importing a text file that has path/file names that have accents in them.  

    For example, below you can see the accents/special characters.

    in windows explorer I see this:
    1027948_16356344_wk 35 @NIVEA BODY@48965 Body 625ml 77240 CrŠme Soft 250-200ml 24253 Inshower @ AD @ $0 30 $0 50 $0 05 @ RCWC EF_VS.xlsm

    After importing it to SQL server from a text file:
    1027948_16356344_wk 35 @NIVEA BODY@48965 Body 625ml 77240 Crème Soft 250-200ml 24253 Inshower @ AD @ $0 30 $0 50 $0 05 @ RCWC EF_VS.xlsm

    I import a text file with the path/filename and it changes the accent.  I import it into a varchar type column.  Should it be a different type?  how is the best way to import the text file?

    thanks,
    Alex

  • Actually, just realized it is not at this stage where it is changed.  Data is fine.
