I try to bulk copy a text file into a table, I want to start to copy from the 2nd row of file. I have the code below:

bulk insert Test from "I:\Windows\A020204.txt" With (FirstRow=2)


But I get result:
(0 row(s) affected)

Why it doesn't copy?

Is the file empty?

Can you open it with wordpad?

Is the file fixed width or delimited?

What's the table DDL?

Can SQL Serve see the I: drive? You might try a UNC name.

If it was a mapping issue, they'd get an error...no?
