Hi I was wondering if anyone else was running into the problem where SSIS inserts data into a range incorrectly.
I have a Raw File Source in a Data Flow. The data is manipulated and then defined to insert into a named range within an Excel Worksheet. I have a task prior to the data flow that takes a template and copies it to another location. Within the Template I have defined several named ranges.
The Data Flow inserts the data in the line below the named range. For instance if I have a named range defined as B1:C1 the insert occurs on B2:C2
Does anyone know why this is happening or how I can get it to insert into the Range I have specified?
I have an Excel data source from a customer. The data source is a daily dump from the customer's HR system - bascially data about people. Some of these are new (to the data source) and some already exist in my database (from a previous import).
What I am trying to do is: If the row in Excel is new, then INSERT the data into my table. If the row in Excel already exists in my database, then I just want to UPDATE the data in my table.
The Excel data contains an ID field from the HR system that I store in my table for lookups. However, I also generate an ID from my table, when the data is inserted.
I have a Lookup task that uses the HR system ID from the Excel file and this will return the rows that already exist. These are the rows I want to update. One question is: Do I use the OLE DB Command task for this operation?
Second, how do I determine the rows that don't exist? I am assuming that the Lookup task only returns those rows that match. And, unlike the conditional split, there doesn't appear to be another path that the unmatched data can be sent to.
I'm searching a way get Excel data into SQL database and tried this "insert" process that given me error. Already create a table call "original_purged" contain column fields. Can anyone give me some tips to show the problem?
Server: Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 OLE DB provider 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0' reported an error. Authentication failed. [OLE/DB provider returned message: Cannot start your application. The workgroup information file is missing or opened exclusively by another user.] OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0' IDBInitialize::Initialize returned 0x80040e4d: Authentication failed.].
I've had little success gooling/searching for this (so far).
Given a simple spreadsheet:
StoreNumber StoreName
1 UPDStoreName_1
2 UPDStoreName_2
3 UPDStoreName_3
4 NEWStoreName_4
I want to have an SSIS package that will update a table: mystores (storenumber int, storename nvarchar(255))
StoreNumber StoreName
1 StoreName_1
2 StoreName_2
3 StoreName_3
5 StoreName_5
.. what I need to do is insert the new, update the existing and leave the remaining unchanged. i.e. :
StoreNumber StoreName
1 UPDStoreName_1
2 UPDStoreName_2
3 UPDStoreName_3
4 NEWStoreName_4
5 StoreName_5
(the UPD and NEW are added to simplify the example).
Now the default action of an excel source into an ole db destination is an insert into the table - so PK constraints causes failures.
Now, given that the table is referred to by other table, and is in a 24x7 website, how do I change the SSIS package such that, on a row-by-row basis, anUpSert (update or insert) is performed?
The only idea I have so far is:
create temp table
insert excel data into temp table
iterate through the table, using if exists ... update else insert logic <-- this to be done in a SP
I need to create about 1,000 (literately) Excel files that each contain 5 tabs. The data being placed on the tabs will always be the same (meaning the columns are static). I am fairly advanced at Excel VBA so I can write code that does all the following in Excel (looped 1,000 times):
Open an Excel template
Bring data in from the tables
Filter, then copy-paste the appropriate rows into each tab.
Save the new Excel file.
Email the file to appropriate individual (it is a Microsoft Exchange Server). As I started this in VBA, I thought that I might be able to do it with SSIS. My concern is I need to have the rows formatted (font, border, etc.) and the number of rows change.
My questions are: Is it possible to format Excel with SSIS? Can I email the files even if it is not with an SMTP protocol? Would SSIS process this data faster then Excel? Does this approach even make sense? Am I better just doing it with VBA?
While trying to insert data into existing XLS file, using below command, i am getting following error.
Insert into OPENDATASOURCE( 'Microsoft. ACE.OLEDB.12.0','Data Source=e:ediuploadhello1.xlsx;Extended Properties=Excel 12.0')...[Sheet1$] Select top 50 product_no From product_mst Msg 7343, Level 16, State 2, Line 1 The OLE DB provider "Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0" for linked server "(null)" could not INSERT INTO table "[Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0]". Unknown provider error.
I have encountered a problem. In the past i run a sql query to select all the data from the excel file and insert them into my SQL database. However recently i encountered an error when i run the query.
Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 4 The OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "excel_ls" reported an error. The provider did not give any information about the error. Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 4 Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "excel_ls".
I have a spread sheet which has 4 columns called cusip, Chartheader, growthdates and NAV.. and i also have the same number of columns in the Sql server... and I want to add another column called Rownumber and set it as int indentity... and when i try to import the data to sql server i am getting this error called Received an invalid column length from the bcp client for colid 1.
I have a data table which has list of bills with date and outstanding total.
If the bills dates between 0 and 30 I like to insert the Outstanding total into Colum K , If the bills dates between 31 and 60 I like to insert the Outstanding total into Colum L , If the bills dates between 61 and 90 I like to insert the Outstanding total into Colum M and so on ..
I tried below formula but it is not working
CASE DATEDIFF(day, Ac_Billbook.BillDate, getdate()) Between 0 and 30 THEN Insert into (Ac_Billbook.OutstandingTotal) Value ('K') CASE DATEDIFF(day, Ac_Billbook.BillDate, getdate()) Between 31 and 60 THEN Insert into (Ac_Billbook.OutstandingTotal) Value ('L') CASE DATEDIFF(day, Ac_Billbook.BillDate, getdate()) Between 61 and 90 THEN Insert into (Ac_Billbook.OutstandingTotal) Value ('M')
I have an Excel file with .csv extension . it has on sheet with name Sheet1.
Now, I'm trying to insert this Excel data into one #temp table. I tried with syntax:
---------------- Exec sp_configure 'show advanced options', 1; RECONFIGURE; GO Exec sp_configure 'Ad Hoc Distributed Queries', 1; RECONFIGURE; GO EXEC master.dbo.sp_MSset_oledb_prop N'Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0' , N'AllowInProcess' , 1;
[Code] ...
But, I'm getting error:
The OLE DB provider "Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0" for linked server "(null)" reported an error. The provider did not give any information about the error.
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0" for linked server "(null)".
If I'm executing for .xls file this statement is working finr and rows are inserted into #temp table. How to take excel file of .csv extension??
I am looking (and I have looked everywhere) to run a SP and get the data from it and open an Excel spreadsheet (manual column property editing is fine and preferred) and allow the user to save it wherever they want. I am using VS 2003 Thanks in advance,
Anyone have the code used in DTS to make a connection to Excel? Or perhaps a better idea? I need to pass different file names to a stored procedure which would upload the spreadsheet data into SQL7 on demand.
I'm trying to automate a data entry process. We get annual or semi-anual fee schedules from our clients. Sometimes it's an excel file, sometimes it's csv or other text, sometimes it's from the web. We clean up these files a bit and then import them to a new table in a sql server database. Then someone writes a custom insert to take specific columns from that temp table, do some transformations, and put them in the correct place in the normal database. Then the imported table is deleted or archived. We'll still have to do the clean up phase, but I should be able to automate most everything after the import.
What I want to know is, can I pass a filename to a stored procedure, along with perhaps a few other parameters, and have the procedure import data from that file? If so, how would I go about it?
I have an excel file that I would like to put into SQL so I can run queries on it. Is there any way I can create a procedure that will pull my info from my excel file to SQL? Any suggestions would be helpful.
I need to create users in my database from an Excel file source. I have an Excel source with user name and email.
I would like to use SSIS to go though the Excel file and execute a store procedure (create_user @name @email @password OUTPUT) for each row and then create an output file with the new created password (a random password is created for each user and the stored procedure has an output @password)
I tried to "plug" an "Excel source" to an "Execute SQL task" which execute my store procedure. But as a SSIS beginner I don't really understand how to pass the parameters (name and email in the Excel file) to my stored procedure. There is the concept of variable a for each loop thing... but i dont really know how to start.
I would be greatfull if someone could tell me a solution to my problem.
I'm looking for a tool that can schedule stored procedures or queries and save the results to pdf or excel (preferrably both). SQL Server 2000, so 2005 reporting services are out, though if that has the capability I'd like to know because that might convince some of the powers that be to upgrade.
I am trying to create a DTS package that uses a sql stored procedure to generate a set of results and export those results to an excel spreadsheet on a server.
The trick is that the stored procedure accepts a parameter for Bank_Number (there are 10 of them). Therefore i was wondering if there was a way to somehow create the package to run the stored proc 10 times, each with a different bank number as the parameter and generate 10 different excel spreadsheets, one for each bank with it's results.
Can this be done using DTS or do i have to try another method?
I need to run a SQL Server 2005 stored procedure by pressing a command button in excel 2003. Basically, I want stored procedures run from Excel to get the view/queries from sql.
Searched and tried many solutions here and in other web resources, read about opening the datasource, but I cannot find the exact solution for my problem.
Msg 50000, Level 16, State 2, Procedure ExportInExcel, Line 31 The requested operation could not be performed because OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "(null)" does not support the required transaction interface.
I'm new to Integration Services and going through the learning challenges one often faces when employing unfamiliar technology. I've created a simple package that executes a parameterized stored procedure and returns the results (multiple rows) into an object variable. How do I export the results to an XLS file? Do I have to use a script task to do this?
I have the codes below in excel VBA that always returns a "-1" value of the rs.RecordCount. The sql connection is open, BUT IS NOT ABLE TO EXECUTE THE STORED PROCEDURE. Anyone please I need help ;(
Database: SQL Server 2005 Programming language: VBA (Excel 2003)
Dim cn as new ADODB.Connection Dim cmd as new ADODB.Command Dim rs as new ADODB.Recordset Dim connstr as string
I need to export data, from within a MSSql stored procedure to excel. Right now we use DTS, but its cumbersome and the users always screw it up.
I would usually just send the tabel to a .csv fiel and pick it up in excel, but I have a field that has preceding zeros and excel truncates them and uses a general fromat.
I have the following code to import .csv file into my table in excel. It's being inserted into a table. dbo.ImportedPromoPricing. Table and the .csv file have 3 fields price, code and selling price.
Once import is completed I want to use the data in my dbo.ImportedPromoPricing to update another table dbo.MasterPricing. Records need to be compared and updated or appended if needed. in case of update only price will be updated. this is the beginning of my code
USE [Reporting] GO /****** Object: StoredProcedure [dbo].[ImportPromoPricing] Script Date: 03/03/2014 14:04:01 ******/ SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
but in this case, I would want to pass the values from a couple of cells in the worksheet. Do I have to use ADO (so this isn't a SQL Server question at all?)
Hi, I have created a stored procedure which imports the contents of the excel sheet into the sql server. I am using the syntax as "declare cur_Inoperative cursor for Select * from OPENROWSET ('Microsoft.Jet.OleDB.4.0', 'EXCEL 8.0; Database=D:Nupur_GRAPV2.0Inoperative.xls',Sheet1$) order by 1". as of now I am hard coding the database path inside the cursor, but i need to pass this path as stored procedure input parameter. Passing the path is working but i am not able to use that passed parameter inside the cursor. can anyone help me in replacing the actual path with the input path variable.
