    Hello everyone,

    I've Windows 2012 R2 server with SQL Express 2012.

    I would like to setup a package here on this server that will read the

    data from CSV file and insert the same into SWL Express 2012 database.

    Please advise.

    Thanks,

    Ankit

    You are limited to what you can do in a maintenance plan, which the extent you can do is issue T-SQL statements. So at most you could use BCP via T-SQL.

    Although if the CSV file is fairly simple just use PowerShell and schedule it via SQL Agent job. Chrissy has awesome script for doing this in PS that will load million records in a few minutes[/url].
