Question : Bcp Failing

I'm trying to bcp in from a very wide table with data I'm not too familiar with and getting this result:

C:\office\db\bcp>bcp mydb..test_2 in test.txt -S -Usa
 -Pxx -c -b1000

Starting copy...
SQLState = 22001, NativeError = 0
Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client]String data, right truncation
SQLState = 22018, NativeError = 0
Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client]Invalid character value for cast specifica
tion
....

What switches should I be using?  I've tried -k but had the same result.

Answer : Bcp Failing

I see, it worked with wordpad.

now, from what I can see, the file contains newlines... which is deadly for bcp (in), you cannot do that.

you will need either some XML format, or another method to get the data copied.
