Quick and Dirty CSV import to SQL Server

You can use LogParser (a free, unsupported utility from Microsoft) to quickly import a CSV file into a SQL Server table using syntax like this:
logparser “SELECT * INTO MyTable FROM d:\MyFile.csv” -i:csv -o:SQL -server:MyServer -database:MyDatabase -createTable:ON
There are many other uses for LogParser. Two of the most common are analyzing Windows Event Logs and IIS logs.
