I am trying to create a DTS package through EM Wizard. It is trying to get data from a table into an Excel. While doing so , it gives an error Error Source : Microsoft Jet Database Engine Error : Could Not Find Installable ISAM
Can some one please help !! Thanking you in advance.
I'm new here and this is my first post. I am not sure if this is the right place for me to post this problem but I really need your help guys. I've been looking for a solution of this problem for almost a week now. I'd googled a lot but of no result.
What I want to do is to import records from access 2000 database to SQL 2005 Express. I use the following statement to import records:
SELECT * FROM OPENROWSET('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0', 'Data Source="D:SamplesMydatabase.mdb";User ID=Admin;JET OLEDB:Database Password=mypass', 'tblTab1')
The following error shows:
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "(null)".
I dont know if the statement is correct or I am missing something. I had reinstalled my MS Access but this does not help either. By the way I'm using Access 2003 and my database is 2000 access version.
Installed Office 2007 and I am trying to develop an import by developing a Integration Project. If I use SQL2005 to import the data to create the table or I try to develop the Integration Project I keep getting a Can not find installable ISAM. I have tried to update the MDAC but either the SP is not supported in XP SP2 or it would do anything since there is a later version already installed. This is the same when I try and install / update the Jet database engine.(4.0). Does anyone have a clue, the only thing I can find info on is Access and other db's. This appears to be a product issue but which one I don't know.
Hi, when l use the ADO.NET with the following query, SELECT * INTO XLImport5 FROM OPENROWSET('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0', 'Excel 8.0;Database=C: estxltest.xls', 'SELECT * FROM [Customers$]')i get the following error, i.e.Error: 0xC002F210 at Execute SQL Task, Execute SQL Task: Executing the query "SELECT * INTO XLImport5 FROM OPENROWSET('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0','Excel 8.0;Database=C: estxltest.xls', 'SELECT * FROM [Customers$]')" failed with the following error: "Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "(null)".OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "(null)" returned message "Could not find installable ISAM.".". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.Task failed: Execute SQL TaskAny idea, what's wrong?Regards,YB Lim
First, let me state this is no longer an error, rather I wanted to share this experience with you. Primarily due to the fact I could not find any reference to this specific situation via Google, etc.
Scenario SQL Server 2005 We have a linked server that points to xbase files on a local drive to the SQL database. This linked server is used to pull in data on a daily basis from a legacy XBase application. This setup has been in use for quite some time and once in awhile any query request using the linked server throw this exception:
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "<somelinkedservername>". OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "<somelinkedservername>" returned message "Could not find installable ISAM.".
So I started digging into this and tried a few things. First, I attempted to drop and recreate the linked server. That was wishful thinking at best and, of course, the error still persisted. Then I noticed something very odd on the database. We had 80+ connections open from the Idera diagnositics software. These connections went back to the prior day at approximately 6 AM and every scheduled interval since. A quick DBCC INPUTBUFFER showed me they were making many calls to the WMI services on the machine. I shut down Idera and tried to kill all the connections and they just sat there in a KILLED/ROLLBACK state for over an hour (while I looked into the issue). Finally, I attempted to stop the WMI service and it gets stuck in a 'Stopping' state. Well, this tells me it's truly hung up for some reason. Eventually I used Sysinternals Process Explorer to identify the process and kill it manually. Once I restarted the service the linked server began working w/o an issue.
With this in mind, I assume that the SQL Server utilizes a WMI provider for this type of situation (access to a dbase IV file on the local file system). As far as to why the WMI service became nonresponsive, I don't know why it did this right now. I speculated that perhaps the Idera product was causing it with not releasing all the COM resources (it used sp_OA procedures to call into WMI) but since I don't have the complete source I can not confirm.
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?)
l've some excel files controlled by Vendor which changing frequently. The only thing does not change is the header name of each column.
So my question is, is there any way to create a new table based on the excel file selected including the column name in SSIS? So that l can use the data reader as source to select those columns l am interested on and start the integration.
Hi I want to import excel in SSIS via sql command and change the data types. can anyone guide me on this or give me some sample command on how to change datatypes explicitly.
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
I am importing data from Excel to SQL Server. My Excel files are .html file format. Using ActiveX Script I am saving that file to xls file format as follows
Set myXL = CreateObject("Excel.Application") Set myXLWorkBook = myXL.Workbooks.Open(filename) Set myXLWorkSheet = myXL.ActiveSheet
myXLWorkBook.SaveAs filename, 43 '43-xlExcel9795 Set oPkg = DTSGlobalVariables.Parent Set oConn = oPkg.Connections("Excel")
This script works fine but it prompts me that the file already exists do you want to replace it. How can I avoid this prompt
Secondly this file contains data like that Col1 Col9 Col10 Row-1 Report Name Row-2 From Date Row-3 To Date Location Count Amount 9999 1 100.00 9876 10 20.40
Where Row are the excel rows
The TransformData Task thinks that the Col 1 is of nvarchar(255) but after the tranfer all values in Col1 is NULL. How can I convert a nvarchar to Char or varchar
I'm needing to import a .csv file into a SQL database. This needs to be done through automation so I need the DOS commands, if any. Or if someone knows a better way, feel free to enlighten me.
I've tried looking in books online for SQL server but haven't had much luck.
I've been asked to create an automated DTS import which is to take place each and every evening. The import routine is to import data into an SQL table from an Excel spreadsheet. The spreadsheet is not massively complicated though is does contain formulas and calculations. When using the DTS Wizard: "Choose Data Sourse" Data Source = Microsoft Excel 97-2000 I then browse to the file name.
"Choose Destination" I select the Server name and Database to import into.
"Specify Table Copy or Query" I select 'Use a query to specify the data transfer' then click Next.
I then click on the query builder and here's where I get stuck. The Source tables panel contains many rows and when expanded they all contain the same thing (field headings in the Excel spreadsheet).
I'm totally stuck here - can anyone help? :confused:
I have to import Excel file to SQL Server 2005 using SSIS. I am having alot of problems and was wondering if it's no trouble if you could please instruct me how to proceed.
My scenario: I have an excel file that contains a heading and then subheading such as HEADING Acc_g Acc_n 12 n_a2 13 n_b3
My database has a table called accounts with fields acc_g and acc_n. I need to enter the values from the excel into the table. I tried doing it but SSIS also tries to insert the rows following the last line in excel and returns nulls and the table does't allow null values. How can i resolve it?
I am trying to import data from an excel spreadsheet. The file comes from a client and sometimes it may not have any data, that is, it will be blank. It seems that the Excel Source in SSIS does not like empty files, is there any way around this? I suppose I can check to see if it is empty and abort the import process but I am not sure how to do this. Any other ideas on how to get around this??
i want a simple way (straight forward) to import data from excel to sql, not only this, but the excel file is not located on the SQL server itself. my situation is the a person upload a file via asp.net and the file should be imported to excel(i want to use sql to transform and not parse in .net, then insert into database).
Hi, I'm building a web application in VB.NET 1.1 where users will upload Excel files at this webpage and the web application will transfer the data from the uploaded Excel file into MS SQL 2000. There are around 600-700 records and about 56 columns in the Excel file which is to be uploaded daily. There will be a few different files which I need to implement for as well. I've sourced for and tried alot of methods. But either they can't satisfy my requirements or they just can't simply work. - Most simple and direct way I've tried is creating a oledb connection to the Excel file in the following codes... Function TestUploadData1(ByVal vFile As String) As String Dim Oleda As System.Data.OleDb.OleDbDataAdapter Dim Olecn As System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection Dim dt1 As DataTable Olecn = New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection( _ "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & _ "Data Source=" & vFile & ";" & _ "Extended Properties=Excel 8.0;HDR=Yes") Olecn.Open() Dim ExcelCommand As New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbCommand("SELECT INTO [ODBC;Driver={SQL Server};Server=(local);Database=dbSSC;Trusted_Conn ection=yes].[tblOutstanding] FROM [Report$];", Olecn) ExcelCommand.ExecuteNonQuery() Olecn.Close() End Function But from the above codes I kept getting the error "Could not find installable ISAM." at the line Olecn.Open(). I've tried to set the registry to C:WindowsSystem32msexcl40.dll but to no avail... - I've tried another method using the OpenRowSet in the following codes Function TestUploadData2(ByVal vFile As String) As String Dim cn As SqlConnection Dim cm As SqlCommand Dim strSQL As String cn = New SqlConnection("server=localhost; user ID=accessSSC; password=accessSSC541; database=dbSSC") cn.Open() strSQL = "INSERT INTO tblOutstanding SELECT * FROM OPENROWSET('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0','Excel 8.0;Database=" & vFile & ";HDR=Yes','SELECT * FROM [Report$]')" cm = New SqlCommand(strSQL, cn) cm.ExecuteNonQuery() cn.Close() End Function For the above codes, I kept getting the error "Ad hoc access to OLE DB provider 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0' has been denied. You must access this provider through a linked server." at the line cm.ExecuteNonQuery() and I've tried to disable the Ad Hoc settings in the registry and tried to create a link server but to no avail as well... - I've tried DTS but I'd need to DTS package to run whenever the users upload a file. Is there an easy way that I can run the designated DTS package to run through my .Net web application? Any help would be deeply appreciated. Thanks & Regards, Keith Chang
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?
Hi guys, I need to import data from excel to MS SQL table, but I already have data in MS SQL table, I just want to update one column. How can I do that?
I have data in excel files I want to import it to existing SQL Server database. I can use SQL Server built in import tool but before Importing, the data needs to be validated. What is the best way to do this?
On SQL 2005 I am trying automatically through the import 'wizard' import data from excel into an existing table that I have created. I can't find a way to do this without creating a new table. Any takes?
Hi! I'm trying to import data from an excel file into a sql table.I'm using MS SQL.For import,I use openrowset.The SQL command looks like this(in my asp page):
SQLstr = "SELECT * INTO dbo.shopping_TSR FROM OPENROWSET('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0', 'Excel 8.0;Database="+Server.MapPath("\fileuploader\upload\tmb2.xls")+"', 'SELECT * FROM [Sheet1$]')"
I'm getting the following error: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0' IDBInitialize::Initialize returned 0x80004005: The provider did not give any information about the error.]
What could be the cause of this error? The .xls file and the sql table are on differen t servers.
