Data Feed / Make / Model Catalog

Does anyone know where to start if I want an exported copy of home
appliances, cars, cell phones etc.

I just need to populate my database and I want to get some data feed
from all the different types of manufactures.

I think there are services out there. But I have not seen one.

I want a CSV file that has all the make/models for lets say: TVsvilasack,

It doesn't exist. If you compile one that is complete and up to date, it
will be worth tens or hundreds of millions of dollars. Google or Amazon
would probably buy it. You could try scraping the shopping sites.

data export to flat file

Hi, I hope you can help, and thank you.
SQL 2000. I need to generate a flat file export from a single table. I need
a line feed between select fields. I've tried using bcp and Bulk Insert with
a format file, but I've never used either, and I must be missing a critical
step somewhere.
The flat file format for a single record would be similar to the following:
Field1, Field2, Field3, Field4, Field5, Image Path1
Image Path2
Image Path3
I appreciate any assistance you can provide. Thanks!
Did you try the DTS (data transfomation service)tool in SQL Server 2000?
Easy to use for transforming data to export files.
