Import Excel Files To Sql Server
Jan 24, 2008
Scenario:
Various excel files with the same structure will reside in a folder. These excel files should be exported daily in a Sql server table. If the data within the excel file according to an id is new then all data should be appended to the table, otherwise if the id exists in the sql server table then it must update the remaining corresponding fields.
I know how to export an excel file to a sql server table, i need some help in comparing the excel file data with the sql table so to make the appropriate updates.
Can anyone please help me get started?
Regards,
Panos

Hi,
Using SSIS, I am successfully importing data from excel files into a table in sql server 2005.
These excel files are ALWAYS open and are being updated from external sources i.e. third party tools.
After doing alot of investigations, I have reached the conclusions as follows:
When the excel files are NOT being updated, then the ssis package works
BUT when the excel files are being updated, then the ssis package does not work. The error is:
[Excel Source [749]] Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_CANNOTACQUIRECONNECTIONFROMCONNECTIONMANAGER. The AcquireConnection method call to the connection manager "Excel Connection Manager" failed with error code 0xC0202009. There may be error messages posted before this with more information on why the AcquireConnection method call failed.
Please note that the excel files MUST be open so that they get updated by the third party tool.
AND, every few minutes i.e. 5 mins, my ssis package should import these excel files.
Question:
How is it possible to load the excel data while it is being updated by external third party.
Thanks

I am having with trying to import XLSX files into SQL 2012 64 Bit.
I have installed the Access driver (AccessDatabaseEngine_x64.exe)
I have configured the script to run the following SP
sp_configure 'show advanced options', 1
GO
RECONFIGURE WITH OverRide
GO
sp_configure 'Ad Hoc Distributed Queries', 1
[Code] ....
So I first create my Temp Table
The run the SP above then I run the insert into the Temp table defined
INSERT INTO tempdb.dbo.TempTRBZ (IsNew,CoID, Zip, City, County,StateCode,Rate,Taxable,TaxShip,TaxLab,CountryID,StateID)
SELECT * FROM OPENROWSET( 'Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0','EXCEL 12.0;Database=C:TempNotInTrbzJan.xlsx;HDR=YES','SELECT * FROM [Data$]')
[Code] ....
The error message I get back is
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 4
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0" for linked server "(null)".
What I have set wrong on the import? Using SSIS at this point is not a real option.

I have a task to import *.log files in to the Microsoft SQL Server and need help in this regards.
This import should be the best table structure/format for the web log (considerations for import time, size, indexing, querying, reporting, etc.), and best utilize all available space on the server

Hi,
I try to import csv files to Sql Server using .net. The code is as following:
string strCsvConn = @"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=;Extended Properties='text;HDR=Yes;FMT=Delimited(,)';";
using (OleDbConnection cn = new OleDbConnection(strCsvConn))
{
string strSQL = "SELECT * FROM " + strFileName;
OleDbCommand cmd = new OleDbCommand(strSQL, cn);
cn.Open();using (OleDbDataReader dr = cmd.ExecuteReader())
{
// Bulk Copy to SQL Server
using (SqlBulkCopy bulkCopy = new SqlBulkCopy(strSqlConn))
{
bulkCopy.DestinationTableName = strSqlTable;
bulkCopy.WriteToServer(dr);
}
}
}
And the data is as following (simplified):
Model,Serial
AFICIO 3045,K9464900965
AFICIO 3045,K9464900932
Fax 5510L,A3761290041
Fax 2210L,A4978800008
AFICIO 3025,K8565201014
AFICIO 3025,K8565102398
The result of the 2nd column is: 9464900965, 9464900932, null, null, 8565201014, 8565102398 - either the first character is missing or the whole entry is missing.
One more weird thing is that some other files work fine, though I am not able to tell any difference between them.
Any idea is hoghly appreciated.

Hi:
I am writing a custom application which will allow users to upload data in a Excel to SQLServer.
The problem I have is that Excel can come with a number of worksheets. I would ideally like to read from the default work sheet - is there a way I can specify that my code should only pick up the default worksheet?
Thanks,

I am trying to import an xlsx spreadsheet into a sql 2008 r2 database using the SSMS Import Wizard. When pointed to the spreadsheet ("choose a data source") the Import Wizard returns this error:
"The operation could not be completed" The Microsoft ACE.OLEDB.12.0 provider is not registered on the local machine (System.Data)
How can I address that issue? (e.g. Where is this provider and how do I install it?)

Hello All,
Iam new to the world of ASP .Net. Right now iam building an application that will IMPORT about 5,000 records from an Excel spreadsheet to a table in MS SQL Server. Right now the code works correctly, but i feel it is not efficient and takes a little bit of more time in doing the import. Could you guys throw some light on how i can make the code run more faster ? Someone suggested me that i can use DataAdapter and update the table in the database thru an update method available with it. I dont know how to do it? Could anyone share with me a snippet of code that does this ?
Here is my code:
Private Sub ProcessRecords()
Dim ds2 As New DataSet
' readExcelSheet is a user-defined function that reads a spreadsheet and returns a DataSet object
ds2 = readExcelSheet("C:InetpubwwwrootProject1Book2.xls", "SELECT * FROM [Sheet1$]")
Dim myConnection As SqlConnection = Connection() ' user-defined function that returns a SQLConnection object
myConnection.Open()
Dim strSQL As String = "insert_member" ' stored procedure that inserts records
Dim myCommand As New SqlCommand(strSQL, myConnection)
myCommand.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
myCommand.Parameters.Add("@salutation", SqlDbType.NVarChar)
myCommand.Parameters.Add("@firstname", SqlDbType.NVarChar)
myCommand.Parameters.Add("@lastname", SqlDbType.NVarChar)
myCommand.Parameters.Add("@company", SqlDbType.NVarChar)
Dim i, j As Integer
Response.Write(Date.Now() & "<br>")
For i = 0 To ds2.Tables("Members").Rows.Count() - 1
myCommand.Parameters("@salutation").Value = ds2.Tables("Members").Rows(i).Item("sal")
myCommand.Parameters("@firstname").Value = ds2.Tables("Members").Rows(i).Item("firstname")
myCommand.Parameters("@lastname").Value = ds2.Tables("Members").Rows(i).Item("lastname")
myCommand.Parameters("@company").Value = ds2.Tables("Members").Rows(i).Item("company")
j = myCommand.ExecuteNonQuery()
If (j > 0) Then
Response.Write("Record Inserted - " & i + 1 & "<br>")
End If
Next
Response.Write(Date.Now() & "<br>")
myConnection.Close()
End Sub
Please reply soon.
Thank You.

ARRGGH, I'm going to kill Excel or SQL Server!! I've spent an hour on this and I can't get it working. I'm importing some address data, and several of the zip codes are importing as NULL, even though in the Excel sheet, they look fine! Excel is complaining, something about the zip codes are numbers entered as text..whatever.. so I edited my SQL import and made it so the ZIP field gets created as varchar 50 instead of float. It still won't import right.
Someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong.

Hello,I am trying to import a CSV file into my SQL Server database, this file was originally generated by another database table (on another server) with the same structure, the table contains two columns of real datatype with Allow Null Value setto true for those columns, the CSV file contains the value NULL for theses columns, I am facing a problem when importing this file. This may be because DTS tries to represent values as strings then to convert them to real datatype which results in transforming the value "NULL" to real, I receive an error message saying.Error during Transformation 'DirectCopyXform' for Row number 1. Errors encountered so far in this task: 1.
TransformCopy 'DirectCopyXform' conversion error: Conversion invalid for datatypes on column pair 8 (source column 'Col008' (DBTYPE_STR), destination column 'zip_longitude' (DBTYPE_R4)).
TransformCopy 'DirectCopyXform' conversion error: Conversion invalid for datatypes on column pair 7 (source column 'Col007' (DBTYPE_STR), destination column 'zip_latitude' (DBTYPE_R4)).How can I work around this problem? Any help would be appreciable

My database has mirgrated from Access to a SQL Server. As of now, we use SharePoint for our data entry form and it works great exporting an Excel workbook to my desktop and then import to the SQL Server and drop it in the tables that apply. The management team wants to get rid of SP and have all 110 project owners use a template Excel workbook I created and then anytime they have new projects or changes to existing they use this template and email it to me. The problem is the template has partial text, combox boxes, checkboxes and drop-down boxes. In Access I can spend a couple weeks creating VBA code to import this but not sure how this is done in SQL Server. The 2nd issue is why in the heck would they even want to go this route. This seems to be a coding nightmare, then I have to store all the Excel workbooks somewhere for history sake. It just seems to me that keeping the SP site is much smarter for them and for me. My question is not related to SP because I am going to push to keep that up anyway. I just want to know is it possible for SQL Server to import a workbook that has form functions on it easily or is it a stored procedure coding nightmare?
