Is it possible to read in : tab separated text surrounded with double quotes

  • Hello,

    I'm trying to get some bulletproof scenario for a fax application.

    Therefore i should have the possibility to read out the information coming from MS Fax logging

    Now i was trying to get a way regarding the use of Ms LogParser but it seems not possible to read in this file

    So now im watching the possibility to get my results in a salserver kinda way.

    The fields im intrested in are : billingcode (in witch we can place a id for a certain row) and the Status field

    Still there seems to be something wrong with the logfile that blocks me to get it in a proper formatting.

    Also there are a lot of empty fields.

    Could someone advice me for the possibilities before i waste a week orso when it would not be possible in sqlserver way.

    Tnx in advance

    Eddy

  • It is possible to read in a tab-delimited file into SQL Server. However, your sample file seems to be missing end-of-line characters? If you can define an end-of-line marker or character, I think this should be doable via Integration Services in SQL Server 2005 (SSIS).
