Importing Poorly Formatted Text Files using SSIS

Importing Poorly Formatted Text Files using SSIS: "Handling text files from SQL Server Integration Service (SSIS) is not new and I am not going to discuss about importing well formatted text files. There are many occasions when database developers must import text files which are not properly formatted. I will discuss three methods of doing this. For these situations we are going to use Script Component data flow task.
Knowledge-wise you need to have basic understanding of SSIS packages. If you have created SSIS package to import traditional text files that will be more than enough. We are going to do some .NET scripting, you need to have some understanding of .NET coding."
