SQL Server Bulk Insert

Question

I want to import a one column text file into one of my sql tables. The file is just a list of swear words.

I\'ve written the following TSQL to do this

Answer 1

In SQL Server 2008 I've found it easier to just create a file containing a lot of inserts like so, and paste that into Management Studio's query window, rather than fight with getting the format file and bulk insert file permissions just right:

USE YourDB
GO
INSERT INTO MyTable (FirstCol, SecondCol)
VALUES ('First',1),
('Second',2),
('Third',3),
('Fourth',4),
('Fifth',5)
