title: Oracle control file equivalent in sql server
body: <p>I have oracle generated control file <code>.ctl</code> file and text file containing the data I need to import.</p>
  
  <p>I need to import this data in text file into SQL Server table and using this .ctl file.</p>
  
  <p>Oracle has built in command like <code>SQLLDR</code> which does this stuff, but is there any equivalent for this for SQL Server?</p>
  
  <p>Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.</p>
