How To Execute An Excel File Within DTS?

Oct 28, 2005

Hello All.

I need to execute an excel file (built with macro) whenever a date change is detected between 2 fields in my sql table.

if @Date1<>@Date2
begin
DECLARE @command varchar(1000)
SET @command='d:Refresh_ABC.bat'
exec xp_cmdshell @command
.
.
.

In my Refresh_ABC.bat, I have the following line
Start Excel.exe "D:ABC.xls"

When I tested the above script (from Declare... to @command) in query analyzer, nothing seems to happen. It shows The command(s) completed successfully. But my excel file was not refreshed at all. When I ran the batch file Refresh_ABC.bat on it's own, ABC.xls was refreshed so the batch file is working.

Next test, I placed the line Start Excel.exe "D:ABC.xls" on SET @command = ......... line. Same problem, nothing happened.

Any idea what went wrong. Please advise. Thank you.


Best regards
Teck Boon

Certain Numeric Fields Not Read From The Excel File When Using A Excel File Source.

Jul 20, 2006

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

DTS From Excel File (excel Filename Is Different Everyday)

Sep 25, 2006

Good Day to all,
Hope you could help me w/ my project.
Im creating a DTS Package. The source data will be coming from an excel file going to my SQL table. The DTS package is scheduled to execute daily, but the source data will be coming from different excel filename.
Example, today the DTS will get data from Data092506.xls. Then tomorrow, the data will be coming from Data092606.xls.
How can I do this? The DTS I've already done has a fixed source data file.
Please help.
Thank you so much.
God Bless.

Integration Services :: Excel Destination With Run Date-1 Inside File Not The File Name

Aug 26, 2015

I have a ssis package where I need to have excel destination.  In the Excel file, I need to have few rows with some text and then populate data below the text. One the text is like this:

Data as of:  08/25/2015

if the report ran today, then Data as of will have Yesterday. So, if the user opens that excel file after a week, then user should see same  Data as of:  08/25/2015. not today()-day(1).

I was planing to handle on excel side with today()-day(1). but it only works the day it was run. Then the excel file is open after few days later, then it might as Data as of:  08/30/2015 which is not true. It should still stay Data as of:

 08/25/2015 on what ever date the excel file is open. The SSIS package  runs only once. 

How do I handle this so that whenever user open the file, they will see Data as of:  08/25/2015. This is not a column in excel. It is like a description of data in excel.

Meta Data Synchronization With Excel File Source Once We Update The File

Dec 28, 2007



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.

Data Import Excel XML Defaults Which File Governs Excel Defaults?

Jul 21, 2015

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?

Using Rs.exe To Execute .rss File

Aug 27, 2007


Hi,


I am calling xp_cmdshell from inside a stored procedure to generate reports dynamically.


EXEC master.dbo.xp_cmdshell 'rs.exe -i "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90SamplesReporting ServicesScript SamplesSample1.rss" -s http://localhost/reportserver -v param1="10" -l 0 -e mgmt2000 -t -b'


In the .rss file, i use the following :

Dim parameters(1) As ParameterValue
parameters(0) = New ParameterValue()
parameters(0).Name = "s_no"
parameters(0).Value = param1


My question is how do I pass dynamic values in param1. I have a variable in my stored proc called @s_no which i try to pass like this, however it is not working.


EXEC master.dbo.xp_cmdshell 'rs.exe -i "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90SamplesReporting ServicesScript SamplesSample1.rss" -s http://localhost/reportserver -v param1=@s_no -l 0 -e mgmt2000 -t -b'


Can anyone suggest how to do this? Over here, I want to pass the value of param1 dynamically.

Execute Batch File As Sql Job

Apr 5, 2006

I'm trying schedule a batch file to run as a job from sql server agent. The batch file copies files from one server directory to a directory on another server. The batch file works properly when executed directly. The job is being executed under the sql service account login. I've given the service account access to both the source and destination directories.

When I try to run the job it fails with an "Access is denied" error on both the source and destination directories (as read from job history).

Any ideas?

Execute SQL Outputting To A File

Apr 25, 2007

I continue to try and find "easy" solutions to what should be a straightforward problem of outputting the results from a stored procedure to a file.



I tried using both XML task and file system task with the thought that one of those would actually be able to output a file from a variable, but both of those tasks threw fits when I tried using different variable types (file system required a string, but the XML result set never seemed to throw anything but an object) so I decided to just try a script task and do everything "manually".



So my latest gyrations have been thus:

1) Set execute sql task to output XML and push to a script task to write a file

2) Set execute sql task to output a full result set and push to a script task to write a file



Number 1 was the only one I could get working, because I kept getting this error with Number 2 that said the variable wasn't a recordset (maybe it was null?)



I can actually create files now via the script task, but it seems like the variable that should get the results from the stored procedure isn't getting anything. I tried using a MsgBox to see what was actually being passed to the script task, and all I got was the number 0 which I'm assuming is the default for the object type.



What's the best way to debug this? The package runs without errors, and I'm not familiar with debugging in SSIS. How can I tell if the stored procedure is returning results into the result set variable?
