Hi,
Question pls. I have an MS SQL local package where it exports data from SQL table to Excel file. My question is, how can erase all the records in my excel file before i export the new data from SQL table?
What i want is to delete the rows in the destination file before inserting new records.
Thanks a lot.
I have a SQL script to insert data into a table as below:
INSERT into [SRV1INS2].BB.dbo.Agents2
select * from [SRV2INS14].DD.dbo.Agents
I just want to set a Trigger on Agents2 Table, which could delete all rows in the table , before carry out any Insert operation using above statement.I had below Table Trigger on [SRV1INS2].BB.dbo.Agents2 Table as below: But it did not perform what I intend to do.
USE [BB]
GO
/****** Object: Trigger   Script Date: 24/07/2015 3:41:38 PM ******/
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
[code]....
Hi,
I export one table to Excel using Export Wizard. Second time I have used this creator I have checked option "Delete rows in destination table" because table already exists in Excel file.
During execution I get an error:
"Error 0xc002f210: Preparation SQL Task: Executing the query "DELETE FROM 'MyTable'" failed with following error: " and here is my translation from my language: "Deleting data from linked table is not supported by this version of ISAM"
I have also saved this package to a file and here is the full connection string to my Excel file:
Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:Documents and SettingsprzemekPulpitmyfile.xls;Extended Properties="EXCEL 8.0;HDR=YES";
Few days ago I have been using SQL2000 on the same machine and the same export was working properly.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

I am curious what the "best practice" is for exporting data programmaticly from SQL Server to Excel. Â Is it best to do it straight from SQL Server, or should I do it with in my C# code? Â My program is going to pull the data, put in the excel file, then email the file. Â So I could write an SP that gets the data and puts it in the file, then have the C# code run the SP and email the file; Or I could have the code do everything, pull the data, export it & email it.
If it is considered better to have the SP do it, why and what is the best way? ROWSET functions?
I am using Office 2007 beta. I have a SSIS package that exports the records from sql server to excel file, when number of records is less than 24000 then it exports well, but if number of records is greater than 24000 than it does not export anything to excel file.
But when I give administrative privilages to the service account under which the SSIS package is running, it export even more than 24000.
On prod server giving administrative privilages to service account is not a good option. I don't know what are the minimum permissions it needs while exporting more data into excel 2007 file.
I thought this is the problem in office 2007 beta, but same behaviour is with RTM also.
Thanks in advance.

I have problems when exporting data into Excel file from SSIS. It all works fine with numeric columns but an apostrophe is attached at the beginning of each text cell. I tried using derived columns and data conversions but it didn't work. It seems to me that problem is in 'excel destination' task... I saw many people had this kind of problems too... Is there any solution possible?
Thanks.
i need to Delete/Overwrite Rows in Excel without using Script Task in SSIS.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to write an SSIS package that exports a table that has changing column names to an excel file. The column names change due to the fact that the table is created by a pivot daily. the only thing I'm missing is the ability to dynamically map the tables' columns to the excel destination. Is this possible?
I read in another thread that
"It is not possible to create packages or new objects within packages using SSIS."
I also read in the books online that "The input and the input columns of the Excel destination have no custom
properties." To me this means that I cannot programmatically create or remove columns in the excel destination. Please tell me I'm wrong.
So, to summarize my research so far. In writing an SSIS package, I cannot programmatically create a new excel destination object and I can't manipulate an existing one. I hope I'm wrong. Can anyone help me? (and please correct any wrong assumptions I may have stated)

We are facing one problem while exporting the SSRS (SQL Server 2005 SP2 installed on win2K3) Report to Excel format, problem is when we export report having more than 50K rows to Excel format SSRS fails to export because it€™s a limitation of Excel that a Sheet can€™t contain more than 50K rows. This issue is resolved in Office 2007 but SSRS its own libraries to export, is there any way we can make SSRS to use office 2007 libraries to export? Has anybody faced the similar issues? would appreciate if you can give solution for this problem or forward any link which discusses the same.
The columns in my excel source contain data of different types with the column name being a string and the data in those columns being integers. Is there any way to only extract numeric data , in short I want column names to be omitted. Also the data is distributed unevenly , beggining at various rows in each column.
Thanking in advance :)
Hello,
I have an application taht requires the use of a table. The device that this application works on, has a local memory that does not allow me to insert the 800,000 records that I need. Therefore I have two approaches:
1. To insert less records into my local memory database e.g 40,000 but not row by row, bulk insert is better. How do I do the bulk insert?
2. This is the most prefferable way: To find a way to insert all 800,000 records into a table on the storage card which is 1GB. What do you suggest? Will using threads be helpfull? Any ideas?
I use C# from VS 2005, SQL ME, compact framework 2.0 and windows 4.2.
Thanks in advance,
John.
I have one SSRS report which uses drill down "+" approach. The records will be opening only when you click on the "+" sign. There are 3 levels of "+" sign in the report. All records are included when exporting to excel. Is it possible to exclude all the records? Can we show only the opened records.?

The situation is this. I have a desktop app which exports data to sql 2005 across internet. What is the most robust way of doing this and what security should be in place?
I have heard that sending data across to sql is not the best & safest way, but unfortunately cannot really do anything about this. is there any way of getting over the problem if connection goes down while uploading, and is Bulk Insert the best method?
Would appreciate any comments on "need to copy data to sql 2005 over internet in best way" if possible.
Many thanks

Hi,
I have a report returning about 50000 rows, when i export this into excel it takes a few minutes and the file size is about 13MB, When i try to open up a 13mb file it is so slow...it is better for me to execute the dataset in SQL analyser and copy the results directly into excel whereby the file is 8mb and opens up also instantly...
My exported version is just data and no graphics however the page appears to be ''white'' although i set the fill in excel to transparent...maybe this is making the file hard to open...
Anybody have problems with exporting to excel and actually able to use it without running into long delays due to the file size...what can i do to fix this
thanks
Hi,
I am using a DTS package to extract data from a table and export it to an excel file. This task needs to run on a weekly basis and the filename should contain the date the file was created. I have sucessfully used the activex scropt below to rename .txt files but when I try to use it for Excel files it always defaults to the default filename I specified in the destination file properties. Can anyone show me how to do this for Excel files?
'**********************************************************************

Function Main()
Dim sFilename, oPkg, oConn
Dim sYear, sMonth, sDay
If Month(Now) > 10 Then sMonth = Month(Now) Else sMonth = "0" & Month(Now)
If Day(Now) > 10 Then sDay = Day(Now) Else sDay = "0" & Day(Now)
sFilename = "\servernameD$Daily ReportsFlagcodes " & sDay & sMonth & Year(Now) & ".xls"
Set oPkg = DTSGlobalVariables.Parent
Set oConn = oPkg.Connections(2)

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
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.

I am getting an error: "Damage to the file was so extensive that repairs were
not possible. Excel attemted to recover your formulas and values, but
some data may have been lost or corrupted." in some instances when
exporting toexcel.
The report is no different than any othere report. This report uses rectagles and text boxes to control layout with two tables but it's pretty straight forward. This only happens for this particular report when exported only to Excel. I am using SQL2005 SP1.
Any ideas, thoughts, or references are welcome.
I'm trying to export a table from SQL7 to Excel. Only thing is that I'd like to specify the Excel spreadsheet filename at run time. The name of the spreadsheet needs to contain the current date e.g. "table1_20011005.xls", "table1_20011006.xls". Is there any way I can do this ? I've looked at DTS but it seems you need to specify the spreadsheet file name and cannot alter it.
