When I execute the below stored procedure I get the error that "Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type int".

I have a large excel spreadsheet created by finance user that contains several decades worth of sales data.
Here is a small sample:
Guest Count
Unit ID1/2/2011 1/9/2011
3 0
7 0
8 0
90 0
151696 1202
222769 1914
232704 2110
250 0
282838 1882
331089 691
363581 3064
371469 1062
I need to get this data into an SQL table in the following form so I can use it to further manipulate the data and update several other tables. I am thinking that UNPIVOT or CROSS APPLY might be the way to go, but am not sure how to code it.
The desired output:
Unit IDDate Guest Count
31/2/2011 NULL
71/2/2011 NULL
81/2/2011 NULL
91/2/2011 0
151/2/2011 1696
and so on ......
The spreadsheet has 2900 columns and 3500 rows so performance is definitely a consideration as well.
Hi All,
I am converting an old MS Access database to MSSQL. While I do get some data into MSSQL, some weird things are happening that are beyond my capabilities.
The database I am trying to convert exists of several tables. The first few are converted perfectly, but one of the last is giving difficulties. What I do is:
SET @SQLQuery = 'INSERT INTO TableName ( ' +
'[field1], ' +
'[field2], ' +
'[field3], ' +
'[field4], ' +
'[Date], ' +
'[field6]) ' +
'SELECT ' +
'[field1], ' +
'[field2], ' +
'[field3], ' +
'[field4], ' +
'[Date], ' +
'[field6]) ' +
' FROM '+ RTRIM(@LinkedServerName) +'...TableName'
EXEC (@SQLQuery)
I do the same for each table, all with their own TableNames and field names. 80% of the tables have a date field, which is of type DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP in Access and datetime in MSSQL.
As mentioned: the first tables are converted perfectly, however one fails with error message:
Msg 8114, Level 16, State 8, Server XXXXXX, Line 1
Error converting data type DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP to datetime.
If I leave the date field out of the query for that table, it all works (obviously, with an empty date column). The weird thing is that most of the other tables have a date column as well, they are the same data types as in this column and the conversion query is very similar as well.
I have Googled on the full error message and on DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP alone, but all results I get seem different to what I have. I have tried using convert to put the date in the correct format (format in the date tables is DD-MM-YYYY), but this doesn't help. Would have been funny if it had helped, as all other tables use the same date format, and according to the specs, DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP should be automatically converted to datetime anyway (which in all other tables works)...
Basically, what I am saying is: I have 8 extremely similar tables, which I all try to convert using the exact same method, 7 tables succeed and one fails...
Thanks in advance for your help!

I am trying to import a table from Access and/or Excel. I have attempted with both programs. I get errors possibly due to some bad data over the years. Is it possible to tell SQL Server to import a table and discard any errors? or is there a way to scrub the data before importing to make sure all possible causes of errors are corrected or addressed?

I currently have the following connection string set up in Excel to connect to my SQL db:
Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=XXXXXX;Initial Catalog=YYYYY;Data Source=SQL;Use Procedure for Prepare=1;Auto Translate=True;Packet Size=4096;Workstation ID=PROJMNT1;Use Encryption for Data=False;Tag with column collation when possible=False
What I would like to do is replace the Workstation ID (which apparently is hard coded?) so that the user's workstation name pulls (%COMPUTERNAME%) so that I can see who is connecting, using what, for how long etc etc.
Is there anyway to accomplish this?
I have a stored proc that runs and produces an Excel 2007 file. I can run it fine within SQL Server Management Studio.
Basically, this is a partial code in the stored proc:
-- export sql server table data to excel 2007
insert into OPENROWSET('microsoft.ace.oledb.12.0',
'Excel 12.0;Database=D: emp est2007.xlsx;',
'SELECT * FROM LicensesrRegion') select * from Licenses
BUT when I have an execute SQL task to run that stored proc in an SSIS package, I received the following error:
Ad hoc access to OLE DB provider 'microsoft.ace.oledb.12.0' has been denied. You must access this provider through a linked server.
Please advise.
PS: I have to run that stored proc in an SSIS package because the SSIS package does some prereq stuff ( create folder, copy template to new Excel output file) then finally calls the aforementioned stored proc.
Thank you in advance.
Thanks!

I am running into an issue while executing a sproc from Excel VBA. Everything connects fine, and I am passing a parameter, however, after a few seconds, it seems like the connection receives a "completed" command and continues down it's code, but the sproc is still executing. The result is that I never receive the record set from the sproc.Here is the code snippet from VBA:
' Create Recordset objects.
Dim cmd As New ADODB.Command
Dim conn As ADODB.Connection
Dim prm As ADODB.Parameter
Dim sConnString As String
Dim rs As ADODB.Recordset
Dim strQry As String
Dim rowCount As Long
[code]....
And here is the sproc that is being called. the first thing it performs after the "IF" block (there are multiple steps that would consecutively be called after this, but all of the data hinges on this first step working) is a TRUNCATE statement. After running a SQL profiler while executing the VBA code, I consistently see an "account log out" entry; almost as if the connection from the Excel workbook is sent a disconnect instruction. The sproc continues to run and perform the rest of the script in the "IF" block, but the returned recordset is never returned back to Excel.

I want to conver ta excel file int o a sql file how can i do that.
View 18 Replies View RelatedI am able to export to excel through a stored procedure.But when iopen it the datetime column and int columns are not getting recognised.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a SSIS package which is reading from an Excel file.
The Excel is created from a report from another system and sometimes the date of birth formats as a Date and sometimes as string.
I've added a data viewer so I can see how the columns are read as soon as SSIS reads the file.
When the cell in Excel is set as text its read correctly - I can then convert to a date as necessary
When the cell in Excel is set as date its read in US format! i.e. if it was 01/13/2014 in excel its read as 13/01/2014
How can I get round this? Its not an option to manually force the column to be text once exported from the system as my package picks this up automatically.
I have tried
-Regedit set typeguessrows = 0
-IMEX = 1 in connection string
-Set LocaleID = UK in the data flow task to read from Excel

I did create the field on table as TinyInt. I created an appending query and appended the records to the SQL table. Now I have 0's or 255's in the field.

Hi,I would like some help converting an access query to a SQL Server query.The access query is made up of the following and then repeated for each field:SELECT Sum(IIf([gender]='Female',1,0)) AS Female, Sum(IIf([gender]='Male',1,0)) AS Male...FROM dbo.applicants I have tried using the following to test out an alternative, but it brings back the incorrect figure:SELECT COUNT(CASE WHEN gender = 'Female' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) AS FemaleFROM dbo.applicants I've looked at the table and should get back 350, but only get back 193.But using the following query I get the correct figure:SELECT COUNT(gender) AS FemaleFROM applicantsGROUP BY genderHAVING (gender = 'Female') Although I can't use the above query because I want to also count how many 'Male' applicants there are.How can I do this?Thanks

WHERE (((dbo_ED_ATTENDANCE.AttendDateTime)>=Date()-IIf(Weekday(Date(),2)<2,4,2) And (dbo_ED_ATTENDANCE.AttendDateTime)<=Date()-1)

I am trying to convert an Access based blog app to SQL Server but I'm having some trouble with some SQL.
The sql is as follows:
SELECT *, (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM tblComment WHERE tblComment.blogID = tblBlog.BlogID AND tblComment.commentInclude <> 0) AS TOTAL_LINKS
FROM joinBlog
WHERE BlogIncluded <> 0
ORDER BY BlogID DESC
The access version returns blog entries & the number of comments posted to each entry.
joinBlog is an Access query:
SELECT tblBlog.BlogID, tblBlog.CatID AS tblBlog_CatID, tblBlog.BlogHeadline, tblBlog.BlogHTML, tblBlog.BlogDate, tblBlog.BlogIncluded, tblCategory.catID AS tblCategory_catID, tblCategory.catName
FROM tblCategory RIGHT JOIN tblBlog ON tblCategory.catID = tblBlog.CatID;
I assume I need to make a view out of the Access query, I have done this & that appears to work.
The problem I have is when I try the 1st sql that is in my page with sql server I get the following error:
The column prefix 'tblBlog' does not match with a table name or alias name used in the query.
I can make the following change which returns data but does not attach the blog comment counts to the proper blog entry, instead it returns the total comments in the query:
SELECT *, (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM tblComment,tblBlog WHERE tblComment.blogID = tblBlog.BlogID AND tblComment.commentInclude <> 0) AS TOTAL_LINKS
FROM joinBlog
WHERE BlogIncluded <> 0
ORDER BY BlogID DESC
Can anyone tell me how to convert this for SQL Server? This is my 1st access to sql server attempt.
Thanks.

Hi,
I'm using a database through ODBC in an application designed on Macromedia Drumbeat 2000, and use the following query for one of the segments:
SELECT DISTINCTROW Books.ISBN, Books.Title, Books.Category, Books.Description, Books.Price, Books.Pubdate, Books.Keywords, Books.UnitWeight, Authors.au_lastname, Authors.au_firstname, Authors.au_midname, Publishers.pub_name, Books.Pub_No
FROM Publishers INNER JOIN (Authors INNER JOIN Books ON Authors.au_id = Books.Au_No) ON Publishers.pub_id = Books.Pub_No
It works fine if I use the MS Access version of the database through ODBC, but if I try using the SQL version, I get the following error for this query:
Line 1: Incorrect syntax near '.'. Statement(s) could not be prepared.
Why on earth is this happenning? I'm completely at my wits end...and pointers would be wonderful.

I'veworked out that Instr is charindex in sql and can adjust for that, but can'twork out how to get a conditional select statement working.It may well be obvious, but any help much appreciated.
