Question

Trying to import data into Azure. Created a text file in Management Studio 2005. I have tried both a comma and tab delimited text file.

BCP IN -c -t, -r\\n -U -S

Answer 1

I will share my experience with this issue. My users were sending me UTF-8 encoding and everything was working fine. My load started to fail when they updated the encoding to Encode in UCS-2 LE BOM. Use notepad++ to check these setting.

Reverting back to UTF-8 fixed my problem.
