suppose this is our .csv file and we want to import address data from this file(note:fields are separated by commas).
Next step is to create a table in your database for importing
CREATE TABLE address(name varchar(50),place varchar(50),zipcode int)
GO
in the next step we will import data from csv file,open your sql server Query Analyzer and give query as shown in the figure below
the query is
BULK INSERT address FROM 'C:\address.csv'
WITH(FIELDTERMINATOR = ',',ROWTERMINATOR = '\n'
)
GO
you can check the data using SELECT command(select * from address)
enjoy
