Remarks
A SQL Server bulk-copy operation either creates or reads from a data file. SQL Server bulk-copy data files are created in either native (proprietary) or character format. SQL Server bulk-copy native data file format has changed for SQL Server version 7.0 and later. The user must direct version-dependent handling of source files when processing native format files created by SQL Server 7.0 or earlier.
If TRUE, a bulk-copy operation interprets file data based on the SQL Server 7.0 or earlier format for native data files.
If FALSE, default, a bulk-copy operation interprets file data based on the SQL Server 7.0 format.
