Import CSV Data or File Into MsSql Server Using Sql Bulk Insert Method in Asp.Net. Some time while developing applications using sql server we need to import or insert data into database from data files or csv files.
For this we can use bulk insert method to insert data from csv file to sql server .
1. create a csv file with some data in it like
amit,noida,26
sharad,noida,26
Shobhit,Delhi,25
Now run the following script to load data from this csv file into Database
CREATE TABLE Test
(
Name VARCHAR(50),
City VARCHAR(50),
Age INT
)
GO
--Bulk insert into Test
BULK INSERT Test
FROM 'C:\test.csv'
WITH
(
FIELDTERMINATOR=',',
ROWTERMINATOR = '\n'
)
GO
--Get all data from Test
SELECT *
FROM Test
GO
--Drop the temp table
DROP TABLE Test
GO

Is there anyway to do this with \t delimeter? I am trying but I keep getting error messages. Does tab delimeter not work with csvs?
