You should include Powershell as another viable tool. &nbsp;Like BCP, it is a 'push' model. &nbsp;SSIS would be the pull model.

Thanks aikmark I'll check it out. I've started to use SSIS to import the data. I've created a foreach loop container for each of my table extracts, which are daily CSV files.<br />
Unfortunately non of the data extracts have a record creation date so I need to come up with a way to understand which records are the most up to date. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
Does anyone have any ideals how I can do this and remove the duplicate records of about 117 tables on a daily bases?

Hi, <br />
I've recently been give a task to import daily change files into an Microsoft SQL Server. There are 156 files/tables that are Extracted &amp;&nbsp;downloaded on a daily base that need to be bulk insert into an SQL database. What is the best way to approach this? <br />

Data Ware House - Daily CSV Extracts into Microsoft SQL 2008 R2 Server

Microsoft SQL Server is a suite of relational database management system (RDBMS) products providing multi-user database access functionality.SQL Server is available in multiple versions, typically identified by release year, and versions are subdivided into editions to distinguish between product functionality. Component services include integration (SSIS), reporting (SSRS), analysis (SSAS), data quality, master data, T-SQL and performance tuning.

Microsoft SQL Server

SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) is a component of the Microsoft SQL Server database software that can be used to perform a broad range of data migration tasks. SSIS is a platform for data integration and workflow applications. It features a fast and flexible data warehousing tool used for data extraction, transformation, and loading (ETL). The tool may also be used to automate maintenance of SQL Server databases and updates to multidimensional cube data. SSIS replaced Data Transformation Services, which had been a feature of SQL Server since Version 7.0.
