MS-SQL Bulk Insert with RODBC

Question

Is it possible to perform a bulk insert into an MS-SQL Server (2000, 2005, 2008) using the RODBC package?

I know that I can do this using freebcp, but I\'m curious i

Answer 1

Our n2khelper package can use bcp (bulkcopy) when it is available. When not available it falls back to multiple INSERT statements.

You can find the package on https://github.com/INBO-Natura2000/n2khelper

Install it with devtools::install_git("INBO-Natura2000/n2khelper") and look for the odbc_insert() function.
