Hi All,

I want to transfer large amounts of data from a db2 server to my SQL Server. There is a feature in db2 which allows all files to be exported in PC/IXF format, any idea if SQL Server can import this kind of file format.

Any other ideas/suggestions on how I can do this..

Thanks,

I think it is better with ordinary delimited text files, that you zip on DB2. FTP them and unzip and import at SQL Server.
