Hi,
I need to export data from a table of SQL server 2000 database, into an Excel 2000 sheet. I tried following query from the sql query analyzer
Code SnippetSELECT * INTO [Excel 4.0;Database=F:ew.xls].[sheet1] FROM tab1
It gave me following error
Code SnippetServer: Msg 2760, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Specified owner name 'Excel 4.0;Database=F:ew.xls' either does not exist or you do not have permission to use it.
The F:ew.xls file is present and it has no additional security applied, hence I think it should be writable.
Please tell me where am I doing wrong.
I don't know if this is the correct news group or not. Let me know if I have to post to some other news group.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am working on an HR project and I have one final component that I am stuck on.
I have an Excel File that is loaded into a folder every month.
I have built a package that captures the data from the excel file and loads it into a staging table (transforming a few bits of data).
I then combine it with another table in a view.
I have another package that loads that view into a Master table and I have added a Slowly Changing Dimension so that it only updates what has been changed. (it’s a table of all employees, positions, hire dates, term dates etc).
Our HR wants to have this data in a report (with charts and tables) and they wanted it to be in a familiar format. So I made a data connection with Excel loading the data into a series of pivot tables.
I have one final component that i cant seem to figure out. At the end of every year I need to capture a count of all Active Employees and all Termed employees for that year. Just a count.
So the data will look like this.
|Year|HistoricalHC|NumbTermedEmp|
|2010|447 |57 |
|2011|419 |67 |
|2012|420 |51 |
The data is in one table labeled [EEMaster]. To test the count I have the following.
SELECT COUNT([PersNo]) AS HistoricalHC
FROM [dbo].[EEMaster]
WHERE [ChangeStatus] = 'Current' AND [EmpStatusName] = 'Active'
this returns the HistoricalHC for 2013 as 418.
SELECT COUNT([PersNo]) AS NumbOfTermEE
FROM [dbo].[EEMaster]
WHERE [ChangeStatus] = 'Current' AND [EmpStatusName] = 'Withdrawn' AND [TermYear] = '2013'
This returns the Number of Termed employees for 2013 as 42.
I have created a table to report from called [dbo.TORateFY] that I have manually entered previous years data into.
|Year|HistoricalHC|NumbTermedEmp|
|2010|447 |57 |
|2011|419 |67 |
|2012|420 |51 |
I need a script (or possibly a couple of scripts) that will add the numbers every year with the year that the data came from.
(so on Dec 31st this package will run and add |2013|418|42| to the next row, and so on.

I have a xml file. I want to migrate its contents to a SQL Server database.
I have the columns defined in the database. Now, I want to migrate xml tags data to different columns in the database.
As I know we can write a c# code or a sql script, but what is the best possible solution and how?
Can we have any use of xslt in this?
Hi, I'm a Student, and since a few months ago I'm learning JAVA. I'm creating an application to call and compare times. For this I create in Excel a time table which is quite big and it would be a lot of typing work to input one by one the data in each cell in SQL Server, considering that I have to create 8 more tables. I was able to retreive the data from excel usin the JXL API of JAVA but it doesn't give all the funtions to perform math operations as JDBC. That's why I need to move the tables from Excel to SQL.
I found this site http://davidhayden.com/blog/dave/archive/2006/05/31/2976.aspx which gives a code to do so, but I guess that some heathers are missing or maybe I don't know which compiler to use to run that code, I would like you help to identify which compiler use to run that code or if there is some vital piece of code missing.// Connection String to Excel Workbook
string excelConnectionString = @"Provider=Microsoft .Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=Book1.xls;Extended Properties=""Excel 8.0;HDR=YES;""";
// Create Connection to Excel Workbook
using (OleDbConnection connection = new OleDbConnection(excelConnectionString))
{
OleDbCommand command = new OleDbCommand ("Select ID,Data FROM [Data$]", connection);
connection.Open();
// Create DbDataReader to Data Worksheet
using (DbDataReader dr = command.ExecuteReader())
{
// SQL Server Connection String
string sqlConnectionString = "Data Source=.; Initial Catalog=Test;Integrated Security=True";
// Bulk Copy to SQL Server
using (SqlBulkCopy bulkCopy = new SqlBulkCopy(sqlConnectionString))
{
bulkCopy.DestinationTableName = "ExcelData";
bulkCopy.WriteToServer(dr);
}
}
}
On the other hand in this forum I that someelse use that link but implements a totally different code which I'm not able to compile also http://forums.asp.net/p/1110412/2057095.aspx#2057095. It seems this code works as I was able to read, but I do not know which language is used.
Dim excelConnectionString As String = "Provider=Microsoft .Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=Book1.xls;Extended Properties=""Excel 8.0;HDR=YES;"""
' Using
Dim connection As OleDbConnection = New OleDbConnection(excelConnectionString)

I need to script out data in several tables (30+) and then reload those tables on a different database. The "target" database table data will get overwritten each time, not appended to. Several of these tables have numerous foreign keys and other constraints that must be dealt with. None of them have more than 100 records or so. Then I need to keep this script in source control and reference it as part of a post-deployment step with a Visual Studio DB project.
I have redgate, dbghost and visual studio. Are there any tools will generate the script for me complete with dropping all the constraints, truncating the tables, then re-adding the constraints back? Or, am I looking at simply scripting the table data out, then modifying the script myself to add in the steps to drop/readd the constraints? Further, since some of these tables might have relationships, not just to other tables, but to those in question, there will likely be an order in which the tables need to get loaded.
The approach I am thinking will be needed, since ive done this sort of thing before except with SSIS, is to run something like dbghost or the "generate scripts" option in SSMS as a starting point. From there, change the order around as needed, etc.
I am using a Excel Source to get the data from an excel file to sql server 2005 table. A couple columns are coming in a double precision float, but some values have characters in them, but those values are coming out as null, even though I changed the datatype from float to unicode string. Any inputs on resolving this will be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Manisha
l've the following situation,
l've some excel files controlled by Vendor which changing frequently. The only thing does not change is the header name of each column.
So my question is, is there any way to create a new table based on the excel file selected including the column name in SSIS? So that l can use the data reader as source to select those columns l am interested on and start the integration.
Thanks.

p/s : The excel header is at the row 7.
Hi,
I'm trying to export data from one of the table in my SQL 7.0 database into text file. Can someone tell me how can i do this using SQL Query instead of using BCP (command line) ?? Thank you in advance.
hi all;
1. Excel file Source--> monthly Revenue details
2. Derived Colum Transoformations
3. Oledb Destination
its my flow in one of my packates (ETL job)
Excel file contains monthly revenue details, i wanna import the excel data to my database staging table, so i've created the package.
its working fine...
Problem
if we change the new data for the next month and running the package its not running;
the same file, same format, only we delete the contents, of the file except first row of the excel sheet,
and pasting the new data;
new data is coming from Oracle DataBase in the form of excel sheet ( manually they will copy the data and sending to us)
i open that package in design mode and while double clicking the excel file source it says <column name>'s Meta Data needs to be synchronized
Do you want to Fix this issue automatically with the available external column's meta data
Clearly noted that its a data type issue; i have changed the corresponding data types as it is in the previous Excel sheet which is equivalant to the Table its copying to.
now the package is running with validation warnings, External Column "Invoice Amount" needs to be updated...etc. some 2 or three warning messages i can able to see in the package Execution wizard,
ok, i'm ready to accept these warnings, and i want my package running from my server;( packages had been deployed in to the Centeralized server; every time if we want to run the package, we have the asp.net webpage, that is executing the package in an On_click event)
The package is not running from the server, its due to the meta data change in the Excel file( i guess)
please suggest me some guide lines to resolve this meta data issue, i want my excel sheet meta data should not change when we have new updates in it;
otherwise suggest me some solutions that i can validate the excel sheet before running the package and testing whether the data is in correct format or not? its a kind of Data Profiling activity;
i know its some what crazy, but i need to maintain the system with permanent solution, instead of facing this meta data mismatch issue!!!
some what lenthy explanation--> its needed for my dear powerful microsoft responders. i think i 've explained my problem clearly, if i don't let me know your queries, i'll try my level best.
Hi,
I'm new to SQL Server 2005 SSIS. I'm trying to do something very simple, but I cannot figure it out, PLEASE HELP!
I have a flat file, which I read and then insert the data in a database table, that works fine. The problem is that I don't want to insert duplicate records. For example; if I run the package again, it will appent to the table. What I need to do is that if the package runs again, check if the record already exist, based one two columns, date and hour, and do not insert the record.
Thank you,
Aldo
I'm importing a multi tab spreadsheet using Import wizard, which I understand to use the same internals as SSIS. The total number of columns in the spread sheet will be over 500. The import wizard defaults everything to varchar 255. I understand there is an XML file I can manipulate to change this and they are located
C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server100DTSMappingFiles
Assuming one of these will control Excel defaults, which one is it? None of the names lend themselves to the Excel as a source. SqlClientToMSSql10?
Hi All, I want to export all the datas from MS Excell to my table. Excel and table structure are same.
Thanks n advance..........
I am creating a sql table from an excel file that contains closing prices for the SP500. The first column contains all the tickers and the proceeding columns represent different days with the appropriate closing price to match the ticker. Thus, the first column has the header "Ticker" and all subsequent columns have headers in the form "MM/DD/YYYY". When i try to create a sql table from this file, the first column header shows up, but none of the other headers do. What am I doing wrong?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm working on a report to show financial transactions from a table over a certain period. For most transactions there is a PDF document that is stored in a separate table in a binairy format. In my report I would like to include a link on every line with transaction information in the report that opens the PDF that is linked to that transaction. Just to be clear, I don't want to embed the PDF in the report but I want the users of the report to have the option to view the PDF that is related to that transaction in their standard pdf reader (adobe).
Code to do the following:
Once a user clicks on the link to view the PDF I need the code to get the binairy data of the PDF file from the table, convert it back to a PDF and open it in the default pdf reader (for example adobe reader). If it can't directly open the file then it's maybe possible to activate the 'open or download' pop up that you also get when you download something from a website.
I use sql 2000. I have an excel table containing some fields with the first field named code, the same table with more fields exits in my sql database, the issue:
I want to UPDATE all of the fields in sql-db that matches the ones in the excel file where code of the record matches, in sql it sorta look like this:
update mytable (Fields 2, 3, 4,... till last one /the first is the code field/)
select * from openrowset('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0','Excel 8.0;database=C:Book1.xls','select * from [Sheet1$]')
WHERE mytable.code = myexcel.code
Hi folks. I am having an excel file. I need to import this file to database and update some other tables with data contained in this file. I would like to automate this process as much as possible.
Now, I am just using SQL Server Import Wizard to create a table and then I am running an update query. Is there any (more automate) way to do this?
Thanks for your time.
Hi, I am very new to ssis, I am trying to set up a package that I can set to run every hour or so, what it will do is look for all excel files in a certain folder and import them into a table on an sql server.
I managed to get it working but my problem is that my data is survey answers and some columns contain a comment.
I get these files on a weekly basis and some weeks the length of the longest comment makes ssis want to use a different data type for the comment column (sometimes it wants DT_NTEXT, other times it wants DT_WSTR).
as this column is filled out by a human I guess aposrtophies and other characters may affext this as well.
when I made the data flow task, I used the wizard on a file which contained about 8 weeks worth of data. when I use 1 weeks worth of data where the comment length is very low, the task gives a validation error saying the metadata is out of sync. if I go back and set the data type for that column to DT_WSTR and rerun the task, it works but then when it tries to process a different weeks worth of data it will fail again
here is an example of an error I get when it thinks the data type is wrong.
[Source - 'raw data$' [1]] Error: The output column "Question ID50# (Verbatim)" (439) on the error output has properties that do not match the properties of its corresponding data source column.
I played around with the data types for a while and managed to get it to process the first file and then try to process the secondfile, in the second file it got around the validation but then got this error:
[Source - 'raw data$' [1]] Error: Failed to retrieve long data for column "Question ID3# (Verbatim)".
is there a way to make it recalculate the data types by itself for each excel file?
I am stuck trying to figure this one out.
sorry if I havent provided enough information, I am not sure which direction to head with this
Hai,
I am new to SSIS 2005.
Now i would like to use the foreach loop structure in an SSIS package to
loop through however many Excel files are placed in a directory and
then perform an import operation into a SQL table on each of these
files sequentially.
But i dont know how to get start?
Can anyone guide me on this task?
Thanks.
I have the Excel Connection Manager and Source to read the contents from an Excel file. For some reason couple of numeric fields from the Excel worksheet are brought over as nulls even though they have a value of 300 and 150. I am not sure why this is happening. I looked into the format of the fields and they are set to General in Excel, I tried setting them to numeric and that did not help.
All the other content from the excel file is coming thru except for the 2 numeric fields.
I tried to bring the contents from the excel source to a text file in csv format and for some reason the 2 numeric fields came out as blank.
Any inputs on getting this addressed will be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Manisha
