I have an .xlsx file where I need to import the data into a table. If there is not a way to do this, is there a way to import either a tab del file or different type of .csv file into the database?
Do not want to use the SSIS or import feature from SQL2008 as I tried to save the steps and running it wont work either.
I have installed SQL 2014 (Evaluation Version) on testing machine. We want to import some excel files on database. I manually created one Test Database and now trying to import excel file. Import completed successfully but I am not able to see any table created as result of Import. I tried it 3-4 times and even restarted sql services but no luck.

I'm developping a web application and I need to import a data from an excel file to sql server 2005.
It works very well locally (visual studio & sql server & the excel file on the same machine).
But it doesn't work when visual studio & excel file are in a machine and sql server is in another server.
I have always the same problem:
'C:Documents and SettingsmomoBureauFile.xls' n'est pas un chemin d'accès valide. Assurez-vous que le nom du chemin d'accès est correct et qu'une connexion est établie avec le serveur sur lequel réside le fichier.
Could any one help me please ?!
Thank you in advance.
I am trying to import an Excel file - when I pick the file I get the message "Could not open file for reading. Close any other application that may be locking the file."
I have verified that the file is not open - I have even rebooted the machine - still the same message - what am I doing different?
Please advise.
Thanks

Hi, recently I encountered the following problem:
I tried to execute a stored procedure on the newly installed SQL 2005 Server (now on x64 Win Server 2003) which imports an Excel-File into a DB table.
We use OPENROWSET to access the Excel data. But I recognized this is dependent on Jet OLE DB which seems is not available for x64 windows.
Is there another way to import excel data using a stored procedure.
thank you in advance, rene
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 have a huge excel format file wants to export to sql serverdatabase. One of the field has combination of numeric andalphanumeric.

View 2 Replies View RelatedHi All,
I have a particular issue that has been causing me some problems for a while. I have an SSIS package that imports an excel file into my database, and then performs various data manipulation that I won't go into. The problem I am having is at the import end. The excel source file I am working on is provided to me by my client. It is a fixed format and doesn't change, it contains a header row and there are 32 headings. The trouble I am having is that quite often, the last column is empty, i.e. it contains no data. The header is still there, but theres no data underneath. When I try to import this file using my SSIS package it fails, and complains about needing to remove the metadata for this final column from the External Columns list (VS_NEEDSNEWMETADATA). When I try to preview this file in the properties of the Excel Data Source, the last column does not exist. It's as if it's determining that as there is no data in that final column, that it's unnecessary and not part of the data set, even though it has a header.
Now I've done a bit of research, and found cases that a sort of like mine, I know that the excel file has the first 8 records sampled to determine the data format. This problem suggested to use the IMEX=1 extension in the connection string, which didn't help. I also discovered that when using flat files, if you have odd numbers of columns in your comma seperated list there can be problems. But neither of these issues seem to match the issue I'm facing.
Has ANYONE had a similar problem to me, and can anyone offer any kind of assistance regarding what I need to do to import an excel file that may or may not have data in the final column?
Thanks in advance,
Paul

Hello everybody...
I have a very simple SSIS package that loop throught the worksheets of an Excel file and insert the data into a SQL server 2005 table.
The SSIS is very simple and works fine the problem is that after the Package executes if I double click on the Excel file imported I have the message that the file is in use.
I think that the Excel connection manager of the package doesn't release the Excel resourse but this is only a guess..
Do am I right? If yes how can I release the resource?
Thank you very much

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am using VS2012 and creating a package on a 64bit machine to import some data from a .xlsx file.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI am using vs 2010 and I have an .xls file that I am trying to import into SQL Server 2012, and I have most of it figured out, but I have a date field that is giving me problems, and what I would like to do is put that date in a variable so I can add it to every record in my SQL Table.
I am using a SQL Task Editor with an excel connection and I have no problem getting other data from the excel document and putting into my variable, its just the date that I have problems.
Is it possible to import data from an Excel spreadsheet using OPENROWSET or OPENDATASOURCE without having to explicitly define the filepath of the source file? Currently, I have this piece of code within a sproc:
INSERT INTO [dbo].[ProductionRequirementDetail]
([ProductionRequirementHeaderID], [SKU], [Quantity])
SELECT @ProductionRequirementHeaderID,
[SKU],
[LAMPS]
FROM OPENROWSET ('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0','Excel 8.0; Database=C:WeeklySchedule.xls', 'SELECT * FROM [Master$C5:Q65536]') AS XL
LEFT JOIN [dbo].[PartMaster] ON (RIGHT([XL].[CODE], 7) = [PartMaster].[SKU])
WHERE [SKU] IS NOT NULL
AND [CODE] IS NOT NULL
AND [LAMPS] IS NOT NULL
AND [LAMPS] > 0
AND [LampTypeID] = @LampTypeID
I would like to remove the hardcoded reference 'Database=C:WeeklySchedule.xls' and replace it with a parameter for the filepath. Is this possible? This is in SQL Server 2000. Also, if there is a way to do this with DTS I'd be open to doing it that way too.
Hi,
I have a excel file which i want to import the data to sql server... The sql server Data type for that particular column is
varchar and it has a contraint too like the data should be in this fashion 00000-0000 or 00000...
but when i try to import the data from the excel to sql server... 08545 just becomes 8545 (cause excel is treating it as a float) and so my insert fails...
what can i do to rectify the problem...

Hi there,
I am able to import an excel spreadsheet into a table in sql server 2005 using SqlBulkCopy. The only thing that bothers me here is how to check duplicate entries and throw an error to the user regarding the duplicate entries. In the table in sql, there is no primary keys. There are five columns and the way I will have to find the duplicates is to match all those 5 columns. Since the excel spreadsheet can have 40 to 500 entries, how can I check those dupes.
I wanted to see what would a way for me to import data from an excel document into an existing database. I have a database in which I want to clear out the current entries and import data from the excel document into that database. What is the best way of doing this??
Any help or comment will be appreciated.
