Background: This is my day 1 of learning ETL. Had a little computer science training (not very systematically) before.
So I was learning this SSIS Tutorial on msdn (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms170583.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396), one of the steps is to remap column data types from a flat file.
I never ran into this kind of data types (I mean those [DT_WSTR] thing) before. My question is how do I find the correct data type in Flat File Connection Manager Editor for my destination column? A complete list of reference of datatypes would be perfect. Thanks everyone!
It's actually a rather complex beast. Despite SO best practice of not linking to external resources, I'm going to disregard it here
