Introduction

I dedicate this article to my mother Prajavathi.

This article shows how to import and export from a File to a table/view and vice versa using SQL Server 2000 Bulk Copy Program (BCP) utility.  BCP is the fastest and easiest way to import and export from a file.  This article will be very useful to a developer by simply plugging in this stored procedure wherever it is needed or to execute it to get the result.  I have used BCP for import/ export from a text file and a DOS shell command to execute the BCP command.

Thanks for the overview. What I'm trying to work with is the format file to define the data import from a text (or native) file into a table where the schema doesn't exactly match
