I use SQL Server Import and Export Wizard for import data from an excel sheet.
And these are the errors:
Messages Error 0xc020901c: Data Flow Task 1: There was an error with

What can I do?
That means there are unicode characters in your Excel source data that cannot be converted to the the target column(s) in SQL Server [varchar() or char()]. In SQL Server you need to use nvarchar() or char() columns to store unicode data you want to import from Excel.
The import wizard is throwing an error and letting you know (albeit mystically) that is the problem.
UPDATE: Disregard this, Panagotis is correct, you have need to widen your target, not change the data type. Sorry for the confusion.

I have downloaded files from the website below:
https://www.kaggle.com/competitions/nfl-big-data-bowl-2022/data
I've imported games.csv, players.csv, and PFFScoutingData.csv.
However, when I go to import plays.csv using SQL Server's Import & Export Wizard I'm getting errors that I have been trying to resolve by changing data types and I cannot figure it out.
Data Source: Flat File Source
File Name: plays.csv
Locale: English
Unicode: Not Checked
Code Page: 1252 (ANSI - Latin I)
Format: Delimited
Text Qualifier: none
Header row delimiter: CR/LF
Header rows to skip: 0
Column Names in first data row is checked
I then click next and leave everything as default on the new screen.
Destination: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server
I then click next, and then next again on the next page.
I click finish twice and then I get this error.

The data which you are importing might be having text bigger than columns size of table.
Maximize the size of the table column and then try.
Check the length for the column Threat on source and destination. Please adjust that according to the length on excel, bascally increase it.
Alternatively, In the Excel source editor and click on error output tab.
Select the column Threat and in Truncation column set the value as Ignore failure.
This should help.
Check out the ideas in this Stackoverflow link enter link description here, then. It might be trying to import some extra blank rows, which you can either allow (by changing the ALLOW NULLS option), or pipe the failed rows into a different dataset in SSIS, to handle the failing rows separately
Are you creating a DFT manually? If so:
1) Create New Excel Connection Manager - Link your excel file
2) Create New OLE DB Connection Manager - Choose your Database and Table.
3) Excel Source
4) Data Conversion - Convert the EXCEL column to DT_STR which makes it Varchar instead of NVARCHAR.
5) OLE DB Destination which is your SQL server table.
Alternatively you could set the column to NVARCHAR and it would match the EXCEL But if it's a VARCHAR column the data needs to be converted to DT_STR in the data conversion. Let me know if you need more help.

I changed the Table fields size to the text type to avoid data length problem but this did not help,please advise.
Thanks
I strongly recommend that you use a staging table. Import the table into a staging table with wide nvarchar() text fields.
If you cannot do this successfully, then the data file itself is probably corrupted.
After you have loaded into the staging table, insert the data (with appropriate conversions) into the final form (and then build indexes). It is much easier to find such problems when the data is already in a table than when trying to import it frustratingly over and over again.
I'm hoping someone can help me. I have a big query, like 2 million records. It has some exotic characters, and I think some of the values have commas which is making it difficult to export the query results to a flat file and then import them into another table in a different server and database.
I've been trying to use the export wizard so I can change the column delimiter to tab, but I'm getting the errors below I think because of the exotic characters and merged values.
Any tips are greatly appreciated.

The truncation error essentially means there is something wrong with your metadata either in your source or destination. You can set the column to "ignore truncation error" and test to see if your data is still accurate...if not then you will need to check your metadata and make the relevant change.
In Import Export wizard, while configuring Destination, try using Code Page to UTF-8, Text qualifier as " and choose column delimiter as of your choice. Also try with and without checking Unicode option. While editing mappings, select data type and size accordingly source. Most of time DT_TEXT or DT_NTEXT will work for all columns.

Please help me out. Sorry if it's vague.
Thanks in Anticipation.

Your data's size exceeds the field size. Extend the size of your address field in the target table. If you still get the error, check the "Advanced" Option in the Import and Export Wizard. You can set the OutputColumnWidth for each column there.
