Is this possible in BCP or BULK INSERT?1. I have a text file with 100 records.2. 20 of them are bad.3. Can I import 80 rows in a table and 20 in a bad file at one shot?My experience is - BCP stops executing as soon as it encounters an error. ------------------------I think, therefore I am - Rene Descartes |

Yes you can do in Bulk insert 1)Specify Maxerrors to capture errors2)Specify error_file to export error to text file |

quote: 1)Specify Maxerrors to capture errors2)Specify error_file to export error to text file
It was NOT working for me. Then I found out that i have special character at the EOF.I could manage using the combination of MAXERRORS & LASTROW (lastrow -1, in my case)Thanks a lot, Sodeep.------------------------I think, therefore I am - Rene Descartes |
