Greetings everyone.

I am relatively new to SQL2005.

During the SQL2005 installation on the on one of our servers, a component of SQL2005 was apparently not checked for installation. As a result, it was not installed. That component is called SSIS.

At least that's what my research said.

As a result, anytime we would attempt to import flat file (txt), it would fail with some SSIS package error.

We communicated this to our SQL Admin and he said he had reinstalled the SSIS component.

Yet, we are still having the same problem importing flat files.

2 questions:

1, Is there a way to verify that SSIS has or has not been installed?
2, Is it really the reason a flat file could not imported?

Thanks for your help

Tell you Sysadmin to check :
SQl server configuration manager and check SSIS services is enabled or not.

Did he reboot the server after he installed the component?

You can load data from file with bcp or bulk insert.
