I want to be able to create an Excel report in SSIS after querying the data from a SQLSERVER table.
I have a IS package where I'm loading all the data required in the report and the final step of the IS package I would like to build the reports. I think it makes sense to take this approach instead of setting up a RSS package.
AS anyone seen any Blogs which explains such a flow?
I searched the list but did not see anything related.
I cannot open a file directly exported from RS in the Excel format. If I open the file in the Windows version and then close it, no need to even save it, I can then open it with the Mac version of Excel. The file size after closing is about 2K less so the RS program is adding something onto the file that the Mac version does not like. It will crash Excel when trying to open.
I cannot export the report as CSV as it will not correctly import into Excel on the Mac.
Is there a work around for this?
Thanks.

View 4 Replies View RelatedHi,
Please forgive my lack of knowledge - I am seeking clarification to a potential situation and the impact which I may come across in this scenario.
I am new to this so please feel free to state the obvious because the chances are I won't know.
Imagine if you will:
Prototype Development - which will result in CubeA, this then provides a source for a number of reports.
Development Main - which results in CubeB.
Assuming that I now have a number of reports which I now wish to change the source from A to B.
In order to have a seamless change over (for want of a better word) what rules of thumb do I need to have followed.
I am trying to avoid any rework within the reports themselves, should this be possible.
Thanks in advance for your assistance.
I'm trying to import data which from Excel which has been "prettied up" to make it readable to users. The report has a fixed number of columns and the data itself is well structured, but there are blank lines etc.
The problem I'm having is unless the first row of the spreadsheet contains or headers, SSIS fails with error "External table is not in the expected format." and the exception below is thrown.
So I thought I'd be clever and create a template spreadsheet with the same number of columns and set the first row to strings - I made all columns DT_WSTR thinking I could extract the numeric and datetime data from the actual rows which contain data and convert using a script. But SSIS simply ignores the numeric values from the spreadsheet - all I get is String or Date values and nulls for all numeric cells?

While importing data from Excel source , some column is getting null value even though excel column has value.To Resolve the issue we tried with

1.Change the Value of the Row TypeGuessRows from 8 (Default value) to 0 and ImportMixedType = text
• xls
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftJet4.0EnginesExcel
1.Change the Value of the Row TypeGuessRows from 8 (Default value) to 0 and ImportMixedType = text
the connection string of the excel
UPPER(REVERSE(SUBSTRING( REVERSE(@[User::VarInputExcelFile]), 1, 5) ) ) == ".XLSX" ? "Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=" + @[User::VarInputExcelFile] + ";Extended Properties="Excel 12.0;HDR=Yes;IMEX=1";":"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data
Source=" + @[User::VarInputExcelFile] + ";Extended Properties="EXCEL 8.0;HDR=Yes;IMEX=1";"
by doing the above setting also , the column is coming as null from excel source even though there is data in excel.
sql 2005 sp2
exchange 2003 sp2
i've got the report server setup to relay through the exchange server for delivering reports. all reports are exported to excel and emailed successfully with the exception of the largest report at about 16mb. the smtp logs on the exchange server show the report server starting a session but no "DATA" is every sent for this report and emails do not arrive. i am assuming due to the size of the report there is some timeout out issue between the smtp client and server. any ideas on how to resolve this issue? maybe a timeout setting on the exchange smtp server? i'm trying to avoid installing a local smtp server on the report server.
thanks in advance

I have an SSRS file with 2 total reports - the first is a sort of template - a matrix with about 6 varying parameters, and the second report uses the first as a subreport - ultimately, there are about 5 subreports on the second page, all using the main "template" report, with the only variance being certain parameters. The client wanted an excel file as the end result, and I decided the quickest way to populate the data they needed would be SSRS.
My problem is when I export this stuff to excel. The template report, by itself, comes out beautifully. The expand/collapse boxes on the groups are all aligned and the data just fits.
However, when I export the "combined" report, the whole thing turns to caca....
For one, subtotals are auto-magically added in for certain groups (these aren't in the main report, and they don't show render in IE, and subtotals are showing for groups where subtotals aren't even on. ) Annoying, but not major.
More importantly, the expand/collapse buttons for the matrix groupings seem to align to the top, and not the actual row of the grouping. So, if I wanted to expand the data on say, row 11, the '+' button is actually on the previous row (row 110). This is the real showstopper and just not acceptable on a usability level.
Again - the only difference between the two spreadsheets is that one is its own report, and the second one renders the same report from a subreport. On IE it looks identical. Any reason why simply using a sub would cause such drastic differences in excel appearance??
Hello,
Currently, I have to manully create RS 2005 reports which I export into an Excel later. Is there a way to create a SSIS package that could automate this somehow?
Thanks for sharing your thoughts and ideas!
In short, we have started deploying Office 2007 to our users and Excel is currently the only client we use to interact with our AS2005 cubes.
A few users have reported issues (which I've verified), but the explanation in the KB article doesn't make any sense to me. These reports were originally developed in Excel 2003 and when opening them up in Excel 2007, we'll see a message saying that Excel found unreadable content in the .xls file and after clicking 'Yes' to recover contents of the workbook, we then receive a message that a PivotTable report was discarded due to integrity problems. If I opened up this report in Excel 2003, I don't receive these errors or messages.
Per the KB's explanation (http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/929766):
This issue occurs if the following conditions are true: €¢The workbook contains a PivotTable that uses key performance indicators (KPIs).€¢The KPIs are created in the Analysis Services Business Intelligence Development Studio.€¢One or more of the KPIs have an expression in the Current Time Member property.
Now, we are running 2005 Standard Edition with no SP, but will be deploying SP2 in a few days. Our cubes do not have any KPIs defined. Can I even define KPIs if we are only running Standard Edition?
Any thoughts?
Hi. I need to import excel file in database. i first need to do an unpivot task. the column names are dates and SSIS seems to be unable to pick up the column name as it is replaced by F2 F3 F4etc Can you advise of a solution. thanks ken
View 1 Replies View RelatedHello,
We are running SQL2005, SP2.
We are having problems with the time it takes to export reports to Excel.
I am attempting to research the subject and find ways of solving the problem either by modifying the reports or make changes in the way we deliver them.
Either way my attempts at researching this at Microsoft.com and here at the forums have proven to be failures. There are many threads on the subject but with the time it takes to scroll through them all I have yet to find any that seem to relate to the specific issues we are having.
We have a report which is approximately 38 pages, sometimes less, sometimes more, in length. When attempting to export to Excel the process seems to take forever or time out. We can still close out the export attempt and return to the report, but the process of exporting to Excell seems to take forever.
Could anyone here provide me with links to pages either here at Microsoft.com, in the forums, or elsewhere where the factors involved in the exporting to Excell feature are addressed so that I can try to accomodate them as best as possible?
Thanks in advance.
I will continue to try and track down the information on my own but any assistance is appreciated.

How do I grant a regular user or group the same rights to view the SSIS execution reports as say the sysadmin role?
I need to figure out how to give users the visibility of those reports without actually granting sysadmin.
I have a SSISpackage which have 10 execute sql tasks, which loads data into the 10 tabales. Using these 10 tables, I load data into 2 tables. These 2 tables are using to generate reports using SSRS. So we have creatad SSRS package which will generate report. So here what we are doing is we are loading data into those (10+2) tables. then running that report manually and sending that created excel report manully. Can we achieve this using SSIS only, so once data loaded into those 2 reporting table it will start generating reports. How do we achieve using SSRS?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am working with the IT department at a client site trying to hook into Oracle. We are using Windows Server 2003 64-bit, SQL Server 2005 Standard 64-bit, Oracle 10-g 64-bit and Linux Red Hat 64-bit. All service packs are current.
We are working on a data warehouse project where we need to import Oracle information periodically throughout the day and integrate it in a central location with data already residing in SQL Server. This is the first time I have tried to pull data from Oracle. The databases in Oracle and SQL Server that we are pulling data from are third party application databases.
My client cannot connect to Oracle using Crystal ODBC connections. When we use either the .NETor OLEDB connections, we get the "client tools need to be installed" message. We do have the client tools installed on the WIndows Server that SQL Server is installed on. We can connect to Oracle from this locattion using Aqua Data Studio and SQL *PLUS. I checked and there is only one tnsnames.ora file on the server. I used the name from there to try to connect using SSIS. Still no luck.
I did see somewhere that there is a possible issue with 64-bit installations. We really need to get this connection working.
Thanks!
