The Solution Rating System
|
|
| With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating. - The Grade of the Solution
- The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
- The Number of Author and Expert Comments
- The Number of Experts Contributing
- The Feedback of the Community
Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site. If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support. Thank you! |

Asked by dougfosterNYC in Microsoft ADP, MS SQL Server, VB Database Programming
I have about 50 separate fixed width text files that I need to pull into SQL Server 2000, so I want to automate the process. They are BIG files, with 731 fields and a sum of 250 gigs.
I have a list of the field names and lengths, so I want to use that to instruct the transfer. I already have created a template table in SQL Server with the corresponding fields so I only need to append the records.
I would love to do this in VBA using an Access project (.adp) with stored procedures if that can be done. But as long as there is a not-too-crazy solution to this, that would be great. I've been looking at the questions on this and there are bulk inserts but I'm only getting more confused.
Thanks.
The table with field lengths looks like this with field name and length:
F1 18
F2 15
F3 1
F4 20
F5 2
etc........
