I'm trying to import a csv file to a table in sql server 2005 with the wizard.
but when i import the file is always give me this errors :

What i'm doing wrong? This file was a export from a query, then i delete all records and try to import.
The flat file import task will default lengths to VARCHAR(50). You need to go to the Advanced property of the flat file connection page and change the length manually to match the destination table. There should also be an option to Suggest Types which may match the metadata that you're using, but it does a sampling of rows from the file so it may not be as accurate as just setting types manually.
It may be that you're trying to import data from the CSV which is too large for the field you're importing it in to. Perhaps you need to increase the size of your fields in your SQL table?
Have you tried to import a single, very small line of data from the CSV to see if that works? If it does, excessively large data somewhere in the rest of the sheet may be the problem.

I am facing issues when importing large data values into a pre-defined data table in SQL. Any value larger or equal to 100,000,000 (one hundred million) creates an error and fails upon import. A value of 99,999,999 is fine. Does anyone know what is going on and how to solve this, please?
Notes:
The data table I import data to is pre-defined; I can only append rows. The target column is defined as float(Null). The import wizard seems to set the data type to float automatically. I could not change it to numeric or decimal because a) I do not have the admin rights, and b) there is something funny with the source data when trying to import. But I cannot see anything to be off when looking at it in Excel; all values are numeric and the max length is only 11.
The files I use are in .csv format and many have more than 1 million rows. I tried splitting them up using Python and saving them in .xlsx format to put them through an Excel formatting step, but that did not help.
I am using the import wizard, SMSS v.18.12.1, and the SQL Server Native Client 11.0 of the import wizard.
The error message I get is:
`
Error 0xc02020c5: Data Flow Task 1: Data conversion failed while converting column "ColumnName" (42) to column "ColumnName" (148). The conversion returned status value 6 and status text "Conversion failed because the data value overflowed the specified type.".

I have a SQL Server table that contains columns of type varchar(MAX) and I'm trying to get a .csv (UTF-8) type export but I get this error instead.
I want to know how I can change this data type to nvarchar(MAX) without losing data. Can anyone help?

I have looked into similar questions, where I have the same problem but I don't know how to use CAST or CONVERT in the query
You can solve this in 3 ways:
CAST your source columns to NVARCHAR in the initial SELECT, e.g. CAST(mycolumn as nvarchar(column_length))
Use a SSIS Data Conversion task to convert the strings to Unicode
Set Flat File Connection Manager's code page to '1252 ANSI - Latin I'
(65001 Code page = Unicode (UTF-8))
You might find that the 3rd option is easiest.
My predecessor created an Access database in 2007, which has a number of tables, forms and query.
One of the tables holds images, which are stored as attachments.
The database is almost 2GB in size (compacting and repairing doesn't change it). So I'd like to convert it to a SQL Server 2014 database.
I've used the Data Import tool, which has copied the tables & data into SQL Server. But the attachments are just converted to a string of their file name (image1.jpg)
Is there anyway to import the images from the MS Access database in to the SQL Server?
I also have a Sharepoint 2010 server, would this be a better option?
Update (sorry new to Stack Overflow, not sure what to put where)
I've changed the field mapping in import wizard to IMAGE, and I get the following error. If I set it to ignore, the fields are blank. using VARSTRING, puts either Null or 0x in the field.

You've used SQL Server to import the data which is a good thing. I would probably use data type IMAGE for the column to hold the images. You could also try the data typoe VARBINARY(MAX).
Use the Import and Export WIzard to import the data en see which datatype works.
Hope this helps you out.
Edit:
You say when you convert the attachment table you only have the names of the images. Are these names related to the images. When you still have the images you can store them in a folder and use FILESTREAM to connect to thme using SQL Server.
Using FILESTREAM enhances the database because the data of the images is no longer saved in the database, only a reference to them.
Unfortunately SQL Server doesn't support multi-valued or attachment like fields.
For more information about FILESTREAM look at this website: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/hh461480
I am trying to import a CSV into MSSQL 2008 by using the flat file import method but I am getting an Overflow error. Any ideas on how to go around it?
I used the tool before for files containing up to 10K-15K records but this file has 75K records in it....
These are the error messages

This could be a format problem of the csv file e.g. the delimiter. Check if the delimiters are consistent within the file.
It could also be a problem of blank lines. I had a similar problem a while ago. I've solved it by removing all blank lines in the csv file. Worth a try anyway.
You may have one or more bad data elements. Try loading a small subset of your data to determine if it's a small number of bad records or a large one. This will also tell you if your loading scheme is working and your datatypes match.
Sometimes you can quickly spot data issues if you open the csv file in excel.
Another possible reason for this error is that input file has wrong encoding. So, when you manually check data, it seems fine. For example, in my case correct files were in 8-bit ANSI, and wrong files in UTF-16 - you can tell the difference by looking at files size, wrong files were twice bigger than correct files.
I am trying to export a SQL Server 2012 database into a PostgreSQL 9.3 but am getting a weird conversion error for float columns. If the import ignores the float columns, everything goes well (about 300k rows), otherwise I get the following:

It's not a memory issue, since the server settings have the highest possible value. What could cause this?
The issue is only present in SQL Server Management Studio's Import/Export Wizard. By resorting to the SSIS, the issue is not there.
This is the configuration I have set up for my Data Flow Task:
Source: OLE DB pointing to my SQL Server database table
Destination: OCDB connection pointing to my PostgreSQL table
It doesn't look like SSIS is able to create source tables into the origin DB, so I had to do that before setting up the project.
