Using SSIS, uploading from a text file to SQL Server database table, I need to add the text file name as a column in the results dataset. I am able to create a flat file source, get the data from the file, load into an OLE DB Destination but I am missing the step to add the filename to the dataset.
Basic user using VS, mostly a SQL Production DBA but our developers said to create an SSIS package to upload the daily text file.
In your flat file source, right click on it and go to advanced properties. In the Advanced Properties editor, select the Component Properties tab and then under Custom Properties, there is a FileNameColumnName
. Here I used SourceFileName
I attached a data viewer between my flat file source and the next component et voilà!
