sql server dts: Does anybody knows what is the max number of rows when using BCP and if there

Max Number of rows?

I didn't think there was one (Unless constrained by the destination)

This page lists the parameters

There's a LASTROW parameter available in BCP via the command line. This
example:

bcp mydb.dbo.mytable in x:\dir\file.dat /T /n /L 4000

would load only the first 4000 rows from the file. You can also set a
similar parameter using the "bulk insert" task in DTS (but I have not tried
that myself). Hope this information helps you.
