Import of CVS file????

Hello,

I have a csv file that I need to be able to import into SQL. I have found some samples but none seem to work:
1)
csv_path = Server.MapPath("./") & "\"

' --- SQL-String zum Neuerstellen einer Tabelle mit allen Daten aus der CSV-Datei
SQL = "SELECT * INTO TEMPTABLE FROM 'test.csv' IN " & csv_path & " ""TEXT;"""

ERROR Incorrect syntax near 'test.csv'.

2) SQL = ("BULK INSERT [TEMPTABLE] FROM 'c:\test.csv' WITH ( FIELDTERMINATOR = ',')")

ERROR: bulk insert. File 'c:\test.csv' does not exist.
NOTE: I know it is there and also tried the \\server

I do not have to do it this either way if anyone has a better way.

Thanks

I'd open the file using filesystemobject and loop through it - then build indiv SQL statements to insert data - maybe not as quick or efficient but then can be failable to row level.
