    I think doing that bit of pre-processing with PS should be fine; it's just one line, even if it is ~75 times.

    It would be interesting to see which approach was faster. Preprocess the files to a single file per report type or import each file separately into a common table.

    Is the pre-processing route the way you're going to go on this?

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
