It takes pretty long to insert data at the final step, I don't know what's wrong, whether if my data is too big (around 160k rows) or my computer is just weak (8GB RAM)

Why is that when I go to tasks I only see a few options. There are no such thing as import flat file???

What happens if in that case the delimiter is the comma "," but you have a column that internally has commas? For example "x value, y value, z value,"... the SQL divides this field into columns and it would be wrong because "it interprets the delimiter of said column as new columns", how is this fixed? Thank you!!!

Hello, no, I couldn't solve it from sql server, I had to make a stored procedure that controls the number of commas and solve the problem with transact-sql.
