Import multiple files using sql server management studio

Question

Using sql server management studio I want to do 2 things.
- Import all txt files from a directory as tables into my DB.
- Add an additional field to each new table which contains the table name.
Can anyone help me?

Answer 1

There are couple of ways to do it:
File naming conventions : YourFileName_SystemId.txt
You can create one extra column in table or may be name a table with system id. Then after loading the data you can update that column with the system id.
   components required:
 ForEachLoopContainer - To get file and store file name in a variable
 Expression Task (if SSIS 2012 or above) or variable expression or script task to seperate file name from systemId
 Data Flow Task - to load data
 Execute SQL Task - to update last column or specific table based on precedence constraints  
Note: You can also add extra column in data flow via
derived column transformation.
Ex.:
Load file via foreach loop
Split string via seprator
2: Loading different system file in different folder
you can have predefined folder structure ex: SystemId1, SyetemId2 etc and can download respective txt file in their system folder. Then you can easily identity which file belong to which system and then load it to the respective table.
3: Use first row of text file to hold the system value
Use first row to have the system id and then skip row while fetching data. 
Note: Then you have to read first row through script task to get the system id.
hope this will help
