Delete An Excel Worksheet Only If It Exists, In A Dts Package
Jun 18, 2007
Hi :
1. I import data into sqlserver, from an excel file, from a worksheet
within it, named 'input_data'
2. then i scrub the data in sqlserver
3. then i export some data into the same excelfile but into another
worksheet named 'output_data'
I have got it working and this is how i am doing it right now. I am
having a problem in the few steps identified below :
1. I delete the worksheet 'output_data' using an execsql task
DROP TABLE `output_data'
2. Then i have another execsql task to create it
CREATE TABLE `output_data`
3. Then i have datapump task to put data into worksheet.
The work fine, but i am running into a problem, when the output_data
worksheet doesnt exist.
So i need to write a query telling
IF `output_data` doesnt exist, then DROP IT
How do i do this
I am open to doing this in ActiveX Script(vbscript) and ExecSQL task
Also i do not have excel dll or runtime in my dbserver.
Please let me know
thanks

Currently my package contains an Excel Source with a contraint to a SQL Table. The Excel Connection Manager currently has an expression attached to it which allows it to read the variable value and this in turn loads the correct file. This all works fine.
The problem I am having is that if the Worksheet name is different to what was previously set a error is thrown.
Is there anyway in SSIS I can retrieve the name of the excel worksheet and pass it into a variable to be used.
Thanks

I have a DTS package that needs to refresh data in 3 separate Excelspreadsheets on a daily basis. The problem is that unless I manuallydelete the previous day's data, it appends rather than replaces.I can't delete the excel files on a daily basis, as they have to bethere for the DTS package to be able to export to Excel. What I wantto do is create a VBScript (ActiveX Control) to delete all the rows ofdata except the first row within each spreadsheet as the first step ofthe DTS package. Then the remaining steps would run and thespreadsheets would only have the current day's data at the end of theprocess.Thanks for any help offered.

Hi Everyone,
I'm trying to create a DTS package that will let me import an Excel file. The user will be able to name the file the same name every time. But can the DTS package read a different worksheet name each time? Right now, if I use the Excel connection object in DTS designer, it wants to hard code the worksheet name.
Thanks,
Eric

I've created a stored procedure that accepts two arguments: the name of an Excel workbook (@workbookBillRun), and the name of the first worksheet found in that workbook (@worksheetBillRun).
Through dynamic SQL, I'm able to construct a statement that pulls out data.
SELECT @sqlBillRun = '
SELECT [ACCTNUM], [INVNUM], [RECURRING], [NON RECURRING], [USAGE],[DISCOUNT],[TAXES]
FROM OPENROWSET (''Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0'', ''Excel 12.0;;Database=' +@workbookBillRun+ ';HDR=YES'',
''SELECT * from [' +@worksheetBillRun+ '$]'')'
The workbook name will always be known: when the user uploads the file, I change the name to match a certain pattern. Example: 2011-08 AUG.xlsx
However, I won't always know the worksheet name. The workbook *should* contain just one worksheet; and the worksheet *should* be named identically to the workbook (2011-08 AUG), but it may not be named as such. And if I pass an invalid worksheet name, the code above will fail.
I've created error handling to alert the user of an incorrectly named sheet. However, I was curious whether I could extract the name of the first worksheet in the workbook from within T-SQL.

I have a situation where I want to load the Excel file dynamically, and the excel file have different columns or even worksheet name. How I could approach this? I believe there's no way to modify the meta data (specifically the mapping) in the data flow.

I'm using a stored procedure to perform a complex DELETE. However, I'm having problems understanding how to do it. I'm trying the EXISTS keyword but Visual Studio is reporting the following error when I try to save it:
"The column prefix 'Experimental_Accommodation_Images' does not match with a table name or alias used in the query."
The code causing the problems is this: DELETE FROM Experimental_Images
WHERE EXISTS
(SELECT Experimental_Accommodation_Images.id
WHERE Experimental_Accommodation_Images.imageId = Experimental_Images.id
AND Experimental_Accommodation_Images.propertyId = @id)
What I'm trying to do is delete the correct items in the Experimental_Images table. This table contains image file information. Experimental_Accommodation_Images contains linkage information between the Experimental_Images table and the main data. Experimental_Accommodation_Images can hold up to 5 linkages to images for each 'Accommodation'. The ID of the Accommodation is passed to the SP via the @id.
So, what should be happening is that the DELETE command should be examining the Experimental_Accommodation_Images table, finding all the images that belong to the Accommodation with the ident value @id, and using the link between Experimental_Accommodation_Images.imageId and Experimental_Images.id to delete the file information rows from Experimental_Images. Unfortunately I'm not getting past first base on this one.

Given a connection string, I can create a database using a SqlCeEngine object and call engine.CreateDatabase().
However, there doesn't seem to be a way to determine whether a database exists, given a connection string. I would need to interpret the connection string myself and extract the file name to use File.Exists() etc.
There should be SqlCeEngine methods to test whether a database exists, test whether it's accessible, and to delete it, given a connection string.
Cheers, Oli

i have an SSIS package that exports to an excel file. This works fine. the problem is that it appends the data instead of overwriting the file. Is there any way to overwrite the file like you can with a flat file? I have to email the file everyweek and don't want to have to clear it out manually. Any help would be appreciated

What have you done with in SSIS to trigger the package?

Hi
I need to create a trigger that whenever there is data found in a certain table it must execute a SSIS package. If there is a process in SSIS or a way to manipulate the process to check if there is data and then schedule the package that would also help.
What i've done:
I have an SSIS package that searches for data in a table, copies the data into a flat file and places the file onto a FTP server, which it then renames the file so that the server will accept the flat file once it's in a specific folder, after that it moves the data from the current table to a stage table and truncates the current table.
The Problem:
When there is no data in the table, it creates a 0 bytes file that it puts onto the FTP server which messes things up on that side. All i want to do is put a check on the package to see if there is data before it executes.
Any help or even the slightest bit of information would be of great help.
Kind Regards
Carel Greaves

I am trying to create a DTS Package which will run a SQL query and export the results to an Excel file. I would like to the name of the excel to be "dynamic". What I would like is for the name to be ChronicDownSiteReport - mmddyy.xls. The mmddyy is the date which the package is executed.
How can I do this?
Also, I want this package to be excuted at 1am every Sunday Morning. I have attempted to schedule this to run, but when I come to work on Monday, the excel file is not present and the email, which is sent telling me that the file was created is not in my mailbox.

Hey all
I am exporting table rows (based on a query) into an excel file but I don't want to append to the file. I would like to delete the rows that were previously added and then add the new data. The file has column headings and I would like these to exist all the time.
I know how to export the data but don't know how to delete 'old' data rows from excel.
Any guidance will be highly appreciated.
Many thanks,
Rupa

Hi everyone,
I have a task to create a dts package, which will delete records in a SQL table, which are present on a sheet tab in Excel. I know how to transfer records from Excel to SQL table and vice versa, but not sure how I can delete the records in SQL table, which are present in Excel. Note that there are just 2 columns - one is a key and the other name.
Thank you all in advance,
