automatic data import

I just got sql 2005. Can someone point me in the right direction on getting started importing data. I need to be able to load ascii data into SQL 2005 on a weekly basis. This ascii file will have the same data structure but data will change weekly.

I have heard to do this automatically (basically with a click of a button) you should use a DTS package. I also see this SSIS. I am trying to understand what to use for this import process. I would really appreciate any help on this. Thanks.

Start with the Import Wizard (in SQL Server Management Studio).
