title: SQL Server Bulk Insert fails (Network related)
body: <p>I'm fairly new to SQL Server. </p>
  
  <p>I'm trying to bulk insert into a table, using the command in SQL Server Management Studio (2005):</p>
  
  <p>BULK INSERT Table1 FROM 'c:\text.txt' WITH (FIELDTERMINATOR = '|')</p>
  
  <p>I get the error: </p>
  
  <p>Msg 4860, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
  Cannot bulk load. The file "c:\text.txt" does not exist.</p>
  
  <p>I'm positive the file actually exists.</p>
  
  <p>I get the feeling that it is looking for the file on the local hard drive for where ever the server is.  Is that the case?  If so, how do you generally solve this problem?  (to note, I've tried specifying the network address of my PC when entering the location of the text file, but I get a permission error. Also, I know in advance that my company doesn't allow files to placed on a server).</p>
