SQL Trouble Importing Data from .csv file

I am importing data in my database using SQL server, through excel .csv files. I right-click on the database I'm using, tasks, import data, go through the steps of selecting the file, choosing the destination:
data source
going through the whole process, it says that all of my data has been imported successfully but when I check the table, there is no data.
Has anyone ever come across this? Or know of a reason as to why the data is not showing up in the table I have selected it to?
Thanks!

importing CSV from SAP R/3 to SQL database for reporting purpose

I want to import CSV files and invoices from SAP R/3 system into a SQL database. The database will be used for reporting purpose only, please tell me what will be the best possible way, which database to use and anything else that will be relevant to me in this context? and I am novice so please help....Thanks:)
If you are routinely importing CSV files then I recommend getting them comma delimited (or whatever delimiter you choose) and going the route of making an SSIS package with a corresponding SQL Agent Job that runs daily to check for the file and run it if it finds it.
Info on SSIS package creation:

If this is a one time load then I would recommend just using the import export wizard built into SQL Server.

Pretty easy to use the import export wizard too. Right click the database > tasks > import data. This will launch the wizard and will walk you through the one time import.
Adding Microsoft's official SSIS guide as well:

Exporting trac tickets to MS Project

I want to share data between Trac and MS Project. To import data to Trac I can use CSV import plugin, but I don't know if there's a way to export data from Trac to Project. Anyone has some ideas?
You can import data into MS Project from an Excel file. If you export data from Trac in CSV format, Excel should be able to convert it into an Excel file that can then be imported into Project. I haven't tried this myself, so YMMV.
If you don't mind writing a little code, you could use MPXJ to create either an MPX or an MSPDI (XML) file which you will be able to import into Microsoft Project.

p.s. Disclaimer: I maintain MPXJ.
you can contact Task Adapter developers to request a Trac connector. it's not worth it if you only need it for a one-off transfer. but it may make sense if you need this kind of tool on a regular basis.

Importing Excel data to a already established SQL DB visual basic

I have developed a program in which all data is entered into a SQL DB. the program has been designed in Visual Studio using Visual Basic. I am now getting external data supplied in an excel format and need to know how to import the excel data into the SQL DB and ensure the data goes into the appropriate columns. I have set a template up for them with standard excel headers and I open and view the data into a datagridview before the import but the last part which is the import function to SQL I have not yet worked out.
Any help would be most appreciative.
Is there a specific problem that you're having?
A better bet might be to use SSIS to import the data. It's what SSIS is made to do.
