Bulk insert into SQL Server 2005 issue

Question

I've tried bulk insert but I can't get it right. I have a table schema that starts with an id and a few more columns then I need to skip a column. Whats the proper way to assign the columns to each one from a csv?

Thanks

EDIT:

MY Code:

BULK INSERT datadb
from 'C:\datainsert.csv'
WITH
(
FIRSTROW=2,
FIELDTERMINATOR = ',',
ROWTERMINATOR = '\n'
)
GO

The errors is talking about my first column being a different datatype since I have an ID column

Answer 1

I have tested the same and it is working without any issues.

Please post the metadata of your table and csv file, so that I will get a chance to find the issue.

Answer 2

Marc_s nailed it. I created a staging table and bulk loaded to that one. Then did a select into from it into my existing table. Thanks Marc_s!
