Importing txt file with both unicode and ASCII values

  • Hi All,

    I have a fixed width text file which for the most part contains normal unicode chars but some fields are in an ASCII format. This issue is that when I import from this file the ASCII chars are removed so for example;

    Origional File

    Column1 Column2

    12323 ][

    Imported into table

    ColumnName1 ColumnName2

    12323

    As you can see its as if it strips it out. I have a function (SQL) which will convert the ASCII but I need to import first in order to convert. Please help.

  • Do you think changing a code page options in the flat file conncetion would help?

  • In the editor for the flat file connection, what are the datatypes for the input columns?


  • Hi, I am using NVARCAHR 255 in my destination tables, I have tried sting, byte stream and T Weaterun (unicode)
