  Most SSIS packages will not run on SQL Express. You'll need a higher version.

  You are limited to what you can do in a maintenance plan, which the extent you can do is issue T-SQL statements. So at most you could use BCP via T-SQL.

  Although if the CSV file is fairly simple just use PowerShell and schedule it via SQL Agent job. Chrissy has awesome script for doing this in PS that will load million records in a few minutes[/url].
