| We have a number of csv files which arrive on our doorstep regularly which we then have to manually import into the database using the import wizard.Is there a way of dynamically importing a csv so the table is created automatically on import?This would save a lot of time using the import wizard. |

| Import into a single column table (bcp) then parse the first row and create a table from it then import.==========================================Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.SSIS can be used in a similar way.Beer is not cold and it isn't fizzy. |
