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.

bulk insert data file from a shared network drive

Asked by sdc248 in SQL Server 2005, MS SQL Server

Tags: , , , ,

Hi experts:

I haven't been able to resolve this problem for days now. It's kind of complicated but I am hoping I can describe the problem clear and one of you guys could help me dig out the root cause.

I have a stored procedure located in a SQL Server database running on a server, let's call it MYSQLSERVER that does something like:
bulk insert #mytable from ‘\\MYFILESERVER\data\myfile.csv’
with…

The "data" folder of MYFILESERVER is a shared network drive that I and everyone in the office has read/write/exeute access right to it.

The stored procedure works fine if I execute it from MYSQLSERVER through Management Studio but gives me error message if:
1. I execute it from my desktop either through Management Studio or through a VBA program located on the ''MYFILESERVER\data" network drive. The error message:
"Cannot bulk load because the file "\\MYFILESERVER\data\myfile.csv" could not be opened. Operating system error code 5(Access is denied.)."
2. if I execute it from MYSQLSERVER through the VBA program located on MYFILESERVER/data. Error message is thrown at the code trying to access to resulting recordset:
"Operation is not allowed when the object is closed."

I use a domain account to log in my desktop. I am also able  to log on to MYSQLSERVER using the same account. I have no problem read/write a file on the shared network drive on MYFILESERVER either from my desktop or from MYSQLSERVER using this same account.

Please help.  Thank you.
