I'm a dba for SQL server and I Will import a textfile to SQL. For example I use a file with 3 columns. ID, Name and Surname and the columns are tab separated. I don't know much about programming. Anyway, I use this code below. It works, but it will not split the columns. I have tried to change the argumnts in str(alllines[]) Some of the columns can include many characters and some not. For exampel names can be Bo or Lars-Ture.
I be glad if some can help me with this.
