sql server programming: [quoted text, click to view]

Access does not have a data type called NTEXT. This is gong to be MEMO in
Access, and I think Integration Services is telling you to use NTEXT in SQL
Server. I am going to suggest you use NVARCHAR(MAX) as the destination data
type.

Hi Guys/Girls...

I'm using SQL 2005 integration services to copy data from an existing access
database. The access datbase contains a field, with the type of NTEXT. I am
trying to write the corresponding data to a table with a nvarchar(8000)
field.

I'm also trying to use the 'Data Conversion' data flow transformation,
however I am unsure what to convert the NTEXT to? I've tried a variety of
supported types, however I always seem to get an error stipulating that the
output stream stipulated does not support the NTEXT conversion.

Has anybody tried anything like this yet?

Thanks,
Justin

Hi Aaron,

I do not wish to import into a NTEXT field in my SQL2005 database, but would
prefer that Integration Services do the implicit conversion to a
Varchar(8000) using the 'Data Conversion' data flow transformation.

Thanks,
Justin
