Is there a really easy way to import data into SQL?

How long is a piece of string?
Is this a one-off or do you need to import different files with the same structure?
If it's a one-off you can use BCP. If you need to repeat it, you can use SSIS and create a job that runs on a schedule....

There are 9 items in the table. I can export from the website and import into SQL as a .cvs or html file. There is also a section on the website for MySQL mapping. There will be a different file each day with similar or varied data. I love the idea of creating a job that runs on a schedule!

SSIS package to get the file (download), then import the text file. Then schedule it using a job?

If you're asking that question then SSIS would not be a quick solution.
Would the Import Data Wizard be more suitable? In SSMS, right-click on the database name, then 'Tasks/Import Data...'.
Have a look at that and see if it would be good enough for your needs.

If it's a simple data load then SSIS is probably overkill anyway. The Import/Export Wizard is good for one-off loads (and you can save it as well, but then we're back to SSIS). BULK INSERT and bcp should also work well, and you can easily schedule them.
