title: Microsoft SQL Management Studio Large Flat File Import for specified columns
body: <p>I have a large Excel file that I need to import into Microsoft SQL Management Studio (V18). The file has over 8000 columns and I only need a select few. Due to the file size it is too difficult to manipulate in Excel however I have the column names that I want. Is there a way to import the file in SQL as a flat file and ONLY import the columns I need by specifying them?</p>
