Is it possible to create a sql job that does the following:

Read a microsoft access file(.mdb file) and determine how many records are present in that file, then create that many blank records in a sql table.

And then later insert values into those blank records.

Why would you want to insert blank records into the table rather than just insert the data when you have it?

So I cant use a sql server job to import a access file?

I guess I wouldn't really need to count the records.
