Importing text file problem using Import and Export Wizard

Hi,

I'm trying to import text file (generated by UNIX - collation ISO LATIN 2) into the database using SQL SERVER 2005 Import and Export Wizard. I have got a problem with importing a decimal number, because in that column are not only decimal numbers (that's OK), but there are also spaces (not null, the column is filled by spaces and it looks like | |). When I'm trying import that file, then will occur the problem of truncation and import stops.

I can import that data by BULK INSERT, but I would like to import it by Import and Export Wizard at once without using subsequent conversions.

I *think* you'll have to do this in two steps. One to load that field as a varchar field. Two to convert that data (excluding spaces) to decimals.|||You could use the package generated by the import/export wizard, and the edit it with BIDS to add the logic necessary to convert/replace those column before the insertion...
