How to import word documents into SQL Server

Hi All,

I need to import multiple word documents of same structure into SQL Server table. Could anyone suggest the way of doing this?

Thanks,

What do you mean, "the same structure"? Do you want to extract informaiton from the documents or just store each one as a BLOB? If the latter, the 'Import Column' component should work for you.

I'm not sure really. This isn't a common request seeing as Word documents are not structured files. The normal answer to extracting unstructured data using SSIS is that you're going to have to use code. You can download Primary Interop Assemblies for Office that enable you to interact with Word documents using dotnet code - hence you can use them in a script task/component.

i assume what you want is to insert them into a table?
You're going to want to create a table with a column of type "image", which
is a BLOB field (Binary Large OBject).
Then you'll want to read the documentation on your database access
technology (ADO, OLEdb, ODBC, Hibernate, etc) on how to insert blobs into a
table.|||Futher to Ian's post, some ADO.NET examples (in c#):

accessible by the server (on one of its local disks, or a network shared
drive). This example updates an existing record, but you could do something
similar with an insert. I do it this way because I don't have the photo yet
when I first create the record.
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[COURSES](

create procedure spInsertPhoto

@.inPhotoFileName nvarchar(100)

'UPDATE COURSES

(BULK '+ QUOTENAME(@.inPhotoFileName, '''') + ' , SINGLE_BLOB) Photo)
WHERE courseid = ' + cast(@.inCourseID as varchar)
exec (@.SQL)
GO
insert into COURSES
values('Test Course', NULL)
GO
exec spInsertPhoto 1, 'c:\temp\test2.jpg'

The bulk provider isn't support for OpenRowSet in 2000. :)
