I am using SSIS 2012 SP1 to import a comma delimited csv file into a SQL table.
One of the fields carries a time value:
Source = textfile, column=DT_STR(8), value format = "hhmmss", e.g. "011525"
Destination = field in SQL table, data type = time(0)
To get it from the textfile to the SQL table I am:
1.) Creating a derived column called [d_Time of Entry]with the following formula -
SUBSTRING([Time of Entry],1,2) + ":" + SUBSTRING([Time of Entry],3,2) + ":" + SUBSTRING([Time of Entry],5,2)
2.) Performing a data conversion task to convert [d_Time of Entry] from DT_STR(8) to time(0) The upload fails because values that start with a zero, i.e. times before 10am, have their leading 0's stripped before being derived. You can see this because "011525" is derived as "11:52:5" when it should be "01:15:25".

View 3 Replies View RelatedWe'll be using 2014 enterprise to populate some excel spreadsheets. We may not have the option of using ssrs so here is the question.
The excel spreadsheets have some pretty fancy heading structures, multiple tabs and in a few cases graphs that i'm sure are dependent on data sitting somewhere in the spreadsheet. The heading have variable info in them (eg FYxx where xx is a parameterized fiscal year, month names etc). Sometimes those headings have sub headings (with variable info) and so on.
Generally speaking how (if at all) do folks deal with this kind of excel challenge when limited to using ssis? I don't know if templates are going to be a good idea. I don't know if i'll be looking at a fair amount of c# etc code behind the scenes. I can be more specific depending on the feedback.
This is part of a conversion from 2 of the larger BI and statistical tools out there to the MS sql stack. Obviously with some shortcuts that we may wish we didn't take. Â

View 13 Replies View RelatedHi,
I would like to know how to import in the custom delimited text file by using SSIS.
For example, instead by using tab or comma delimited, I use this character : '¶'
The reason is the delimited format that SSIS provided is too common such as colon, semi colon, tab, comma and pipeline.
I have the data that the user also key in the pipeline there. So I am thinking to separate the field by using this special character, but cannot see if there is anyway to import in by using SSIS.
Please help to share the solution on this :

While handling errors in a flat file I am routing the rows into the excel sheet to business for further processing. Â I need to send a mail attaching the excel sheet which contains the errored-out/In-Complete definitons. The problem is I need to send a mail if and only if there is at least one row in Excel sheet. How Can I count the rows exist in excel sheet? and send the rowcount to a variable and use that value of a variable to send a mail?

Using excel connection to load data to SQL Server When I try doing this character data is loading as nulls, I have tried by putting IMEX=1 property in connection string and removing IMEX=1 property from connection string , in both cases it is showing nulls, in the data viewer which i have placed after Excel source. I have also tried using the OPENROWSET which for some reason does not create an adhoc connection. I also tried changing the Datatypes in the advanced editor which again throws error. For some reason SSIS excel connection reads only the first 8 rows and decides a datatype and rest showup NULL.
I have an SSIS package that is creating an Excel worksheet and writing data to it. It works fine when i run it inside Visual Studio. But when it runs as a scheduled job it writes the header and no data. I turned on logging and the log even says it is writing the 10,456 rows that it should be.Â
But they are not showing up in the Excel document. The job is setup as 32 bit and writing to Excel 97-2003. The job ends normally and does not generate any type of messages that are out of the ordinary. This is running on SQL Server 2008r2.
I need to delete the second row in an excel file in my SSIS package. Is that possible to do?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a SSIS package which is reading from an Excel file.Â
The Excel is created from a report from another system and sometimes the date of birth formats as a Date and sometimes as string.
I've added a data viewer so I can see how the columns are read as soon as SSIS reads the file.Â
When the cell in Excel is set as text its read correctly - I can then convert to a date as necessary
When the cell in Excel is set as date its read in US format! i.e. if it was 01/13/2014 in excel its read as 13/01/2014
How can I get round this? Its not an option to manually force the column to be text once exported from the system as my package picks this up automatically.
I have triedÂ
-Regedit set typeguessrows = 0
-IMEX = 1 in connection string
-Set LocaleID = UK in the data flow task to read from Excel
Hi,
in SSIS I read data from a DB2 database on AS400 using the Client Access ODBC Driver for DB2 from IBM and write it to a SQL Server database. Since it does not work using the odbc driver as data source directly, I use a data reader component with .net providersodbc.
Some special characters were not translated correctly when read from DB2. They show up as ? in the SQL Server target table.
I tried to change the client locale in the ODBC connection properties but it did not help me. I tried changing all other settings in odbc but it still does not work.
In dts I could source all the data without this problems and good speed using the same nodbc driver.
The OLEDB Providers delivered with SSIS do not work in SSIS or I am too stupid to configure them correctly. They are even too slow as I explained above.
I cannot use the MS OLEDB Provider for DB2, because it works only in Enterprize Edition and we only have the Standard Edition.
Thus, only using Client Access ODBC Driver for DB2 with net providersodbc (as bridge) is performant enough and works on Itanium. But how to work around the problem with the special characters?
Best regards,
Stefoon

View 12 Replies View RelatedI have 2 different excel files file1 and file2. file1 should be loaded to table1 and file2 should be loaded to table2. Both of the files will have 1 sheet inside.

I’ve been trying for a while now (won’t say how long), to get BIDS to read a very simple Excel file.Â
I’m talking SIMPLE!! No matter what I don, SSIS keeps throwing an error, and of course it doesn’t say what the error is, so I can’t really debug it.Â
I’ve tried this at least 20x with flat files, and it works perfect each time. I’ve done Data Conversions, Sorting, Union All, and several other Transformations; all work perfect.Â
Trying to used Excel as a data source, is proving to be a mind numbing experience. Of over 20 different attempts, it hasn’t worked even once. I can make it as simple as you can possibly imagine, and SSIS, refuses to even perform the first step (I’m not even trying to create a table in SQL Server anymore).Â
I have the Excel file path (very simple)
I have the Excel version (very simple)
I have the Connection Manager (very simple)
I have the Sheet name (very simple)

All I can do is see a preview of the Excel sheet before the process runs. As soon as I het F5, I get an instant error, for no reason whatsoever, and no debugging options,whatsoever.
I am trying to refresh some excel sheet I get with powerquery. After that I load the data in an sql server table to build a dummy DWH for various testing.
My goal is to automate all task and this include also the excel queries. I have seen that exits on codeplex an excel refresh task but it doesn´t work in my enviorment (SSDT 2013) or at least I have been unable to do it.
I have seen too a pragmaticworks component but I have to pay so I have discarded it.
I have tested a code that I have found in this
thread with minor changes like increase the time to refresh the excel file to 60000 and change the line
[System.AddIn.AddIn("ScriptMain", Version = "1.0", Publisher = "", Description = "")]
and replace for
[Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Tasks.ScriptTask.SSISScriptTaskEntryPointAttribute]
I run the script but neither fails nor does anything. It run sucefully without refresh. This is the entire code I run
/*
Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services Script Task

I am experiencing unexpected behaviour when copying an Excel file.
An Excel file from TemplateDir to WorkingDir.
Excel file is then populated in WorkingDir, ok Copy File task copies Excel File from WorkingDir to FinalDir, however non populated version of file is copied.
However, if I stop SSIS and and execute Copy Task only, the populated version of file is copied.
It seems SSIS has a kind of lock on Excel file in WorkingDir.
how lock can be released to enable Copy of populated file.
I am copying the template with header before loading the data. I tried deleting Dataflow task, Excel Connection manager etc., nothing seems to work and there are no nulls in the data. I did this several times, workaround seems to not working this time.

 I have created an SSIS package which processes daily financial information to a sql server database.  These processes are to be outputted to excel spreadsheets to a readable report format for management to review.  Some of these reports are laid out in a way that is not just tabular output but requires customized placement of data on an excel spreadsheet to specific cells. Â
I am able to place an initial resultset of a query output from the database in a tabular excel template through SSIS but the issue is at the end of that placement in the spreadsheet I am required to place another output below that tabular output in a different format from the initial output which I have shown below.
