I have a TXT file that I am importing with Bulk Insert. The format is such that negative values are reported with the sign at the end of the number (ex. 500.1-).
I get an error with type mismatch when I run the bulk insert. It works fine if I manually edit the txt file and place the negative sign at the beginning of the number (ex. -500.1).
Is there a way to define the format to allow SQL to import the trailing sign?
Thank you.
