Hi guys,

I have a .csv file wich has the following information (exactly like this):

List Name: User
Format Version:1.2.5.0
Date:12/11/2012 12:00:34
Equipment.:L6867000214
IP:172.21.12.62

User,Name,Total,B&W
[1600],[technical],76,76
[6611],[Daise],559,559
[900301],[Richard],0,0

I want to execute a create table and a bulk insert transaction but I don't know how to insert the information of the top lines of the .csv file like "Equipment.:L6867000214" and "IP:172.21.12.62". I need to create a collumn called "Equipment", other collumn called "IP" and insert this information (repeat "L6867000214" and "172.21.12.62" in all records bulk inserted). The result must be like this:

IP,Equipment.,User,Name,Total,B&W, Color
172.21.12.62,L6867000214,[1600],[technical],76,76
172.21.12.62,L6867000214,[6611],[Daise],559,559
172.21.12.62,L6867000214,[900301],[Richard],0,0

I have no ideia how to do that. Could anyone here help me out on this issue?

Thanks a lot!

sounds like you need to use SSIS for first getting header information onto variables and then use them to repeat for each of detail rows

Hi visakh16,

Thank you for your response.

SSIS would solve this problem? How do I use it?

Thanks!

you need to use 2 separate data flow tasks one for getting header info and storing them in variables. then second data flow task to get actual data part and use derived column to include header as well.
