Problem Reading .CSV file data from reporting services

Hi,

In our application we are using DTS to import data from .csv file. now they came up with a requirement to compare data in .csv is exact match with imported data in the table using a report.

i had hard time to implement this. we tried two options to do so..

1. reading .csv file with custom extensions and rendering it on report (problem is datasource file name was standard, where a i am planning to read it from a table).

2. We have a separate DTS to read data from .csv but when we are accessing it from reproting services i am getting "Multistep OLE DB access error".

Can some one guide me right way to implement my requirement.

Thanks,

You can use the XML rendering extension to output just the data in the report. then use an Integration Services (formerly DTS) package to compare the input and output data.

Hope that helps,
