Q: 

Does Importing A Text File Using The DTS Wizard Requires Truncate Table?

running on: SQL Server 2000

I am exporting data (csv format) from test DB and import into live DB, so everytime I have to truncate live table and import file. If ther's a key binding, I have to drop the key first, do import, add key back. This task is too inconvenient. How should I improve this? Thanks.
