I am trying to test the bulk insert using OPENRECORDSET command in Azure SQL with no success.
Destination Table...eventually
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[BCPTestTable](
[Id] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[TextField] [varchar](500) NULL,
[IntFIeld] [int] NULL,
[DateField] [date] NULL,
[DateTimeField] [datetime] NULL,
[i18nTextField] [nvarchar](500) NULL,
[BitField] [bit] NULL,
[TInyIntField] [tinyint] NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_IX_BCPTestTable] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
(
[Id] ASC
) WITH (STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF) ON [PRIMARY]
) ON [PRIMARY]

For now, I'm just trying to select the data using the following query:
SELECT ID,
TextField,
IntField,
DateField,
DateTimeField,
i18nTextField,
BitField,
TInyIntField
FROM OPENROWSET(
BULK 'test\TestData.txt',
DATA_SOURCE = 'xyzstorage',
FORMATFILE = 'test\BCPTestTableFormat.txt',
FORMATFILE_DATA_SOURCE = 'xyzstorage'
) as Data
Previous to this, I did create a database scoped credential as well as a external data source which appears to be working.
When I run the above SQL, I get the following error:
Msg 4862, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 Cannot bulk load because the file "test\\BCPTestTableFormat.txt" is incomplete or could not be read. Operating system error code 38(Reached the end of the file.).
I have tried format files using both the XML version and original version both of which where generated using the latest (v14) BCP command. In both cases, I get the same error.
Random stuff I've tried:
Please help!
Most likely there were characters added to the xml file such as spaces, or lines etc... Could use notepad ++ or a code editor, edit the sql /xml files then save and retry ? this might resolve your issue. This is a similar error message and similar resolution : https://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1490738-3077-1.aspx
Based upon the information made available in your post, there is a missing closing angle bracket on line 11:
