Hi, Could someone please advise which connection object is best to use to connect to a file like this one below:?

"http://xx00xx0123.abcdef.net/ABC_REPORTS/DATA/Table1.csv"

Thanks,

Gezza

Why not use Text File(Source) as connection object if the file is Comma-Separated Values (CSV) file?

BTW, the link you specified gave Bad Gateway error.

Hi, I can access the path to the http...csv file via Microsoft Internet Explorer which offers me either to Open or Save, but when I try to set up a Text File(Source) Connection Object in the DTS New Package, Typing the path into the "File Name" window I get:"Could not Open the specified file for reading.Make sure that thefile exists and that you have read access to it"

Am I doing it wrong?
