Using SSIS, every month/week I have to generate serveral excel files. I need to find a way to automatically format these excel files (Bold, Headings in Different color etc.). Is there a way to integrate MS Office excel task in SSIS?
Thanks

Hi!
Today we moved from 32bit to 64bit computing environment. 64bit Window server 2003 and SQL 2005 are now our playing ground. And 32 bit Office 2003 is also installed. Excel in Office program plays important roll in our mission.
One of our routine task is that
step 1. get Excel data files from other websites and
step 2. extract specific data from them and
step 3. converting them into some type of data that can be compatible with SQL
Our problem occured in step 3. To convert data, we realised taht 64 bit excel driver, which we believe is not yet available, is required.
My questions are:
1. Is 64 bit excel driver (of office 2003 or office 2007) available now?
2. Is there any way OR IS IT POSSIBLE to use 32 bit excel driver with 64bit SQL 2005?
If possible, please enlighten me.
I would appreciate it very much if anybody answer my questions.
Sincerely
Help! My network support staff just upgraded my MS Office products from Office 2003 to Office 2007, and now I no longer get the "F5 = Run" option in Microsoft Visual Studio to run any of my SSIS packages that ran just fine yesterday, before the upgrade.
The "Debug" option does not occur in the menu choices across the top of the screen. (They are File, Edit, View, Project, Build, Data, Format, SSIS, Tools, Test, Window, Community, and Help -- no Debug.)
I store my packages in the File System. I can run many of them just fine, even today, with the Execute Package Utility. My problem occurs when I try to run them in Visual Studio.
Even if I make a simple, new package that moves a table from Access 2003 to SQL Server 2005, I see no Debug menu selection option when I am finished with the new package.
I figure it must be something simple -- I just don't know where to find it in the Visual Studio menu.
Most of the packages I am trying to run do not access Office files: they access dBase 5 files (database); they run processes on SQL Server 2005 servers. I realize that I may have to make some adjustments to connections to Access databases, should such databases be upgraded to Office 2007.
Thanks in advance.

Hi guys,
I'm trying to write an SSIS script that will create an excel file and append data to it.
I downloaded the Office 2007 PIAs (Primary Interop Assemblies) and installed them on my desktop PC where i'm developing from.
However, and even though the assemblies are in the GAC, they don't appear when you look in "Add Reference" for your script task.
If i create a standard .NET web or windows app and try to "Add Reference" I can find them there.
Am I missing anything obvious?
Thanks for your help in advance

I want to achieve the following in (SSIS/SSDT for SQL 2012) -
I have a generic SSIS package which simply sends out email notifications using SMTP email task (this package is within its own project, and has project level input parameters).
I need to be able to call this package in the Event handler section of every package (numbering in about less than 60) that we have. These packages are within their own respective projects.
I thought I could use the "execute package task", but it turns out , using this, I cannot call a package that is part of some other project. I also cannot call a package that is stored in the CATALOG. Is there any way I can do this ?
When I call the child package , I should be able to send in parameters like - error information and package name of the Parent package.
Hi All
I am new to SSIS and my first task is to find out if there are any good third party/strongly recommended connectors out there to connect to SAP.
Our goal is to get information from SAP using SSIS and run transformations on source data

Hi,
I want to insert datas from a txt-file into a sql-table.
Therefor i would use a xml-file for the structure!
How can i refer this xml-file to a measurement insertion task?
Tanks for your help and sorry for my bad english :rolleyes:
I'm very new to the use of SSIS in a real enterprise environment. I've used DTS in the simplistic method of import/export but little else. As myself and a few others new to the tool are working through some things two questions have come up.
1.) What is the best way to execute an SSIS package using Java?
2.) Is it possible to deploy an SSIS package to a server that does not have SQL Server installed? I've read a few things that suggest that embedding the SSIS runtime environment in an application is possible but definitely not a beginner type operation.
Any quick guidance you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
I have two computers one has SQL 2000 and 30 DTS package. The other computer has a new default install of SQL Server 2005 with SSIS.
All SQL related services on both computers are configured to run under localsystem.
I am planning on moving the DTS packages from SQL 2000 to SSIS. I want to do this by copying records between the MSDB sysdtspackages tables. The problem is I cannot access the SQL 2000 server from SQL 2005.
I am sure it is because I am running under the localsystem account. Assuming I had to run under that account, how can I access the system tables in SQL 2000 from SQL 2005?
I am looking for a solution to help integrate an older ERP system with Great Plains. Data needs to go in both directions. For example vendors will be created in either system and will need to update the other. Mostly invoices will get pushed to Great Plains. Is there a way to use SSIS with EConnect so that our accountants, who are somewhat comfortable with simple SSIS packages can see the data made available with EConnect and play with transformations?
Does anyone have a solution like this?
Or am I going down a known wrong track?
Thanks in advance.
David.

if there is any way to accurately size a single server using SSIS. The server will be a virtual machine. The data being loaded will be approximately 200 MB per load with loading to a 150 GB database on a separate server.

Can anyone help regarding the SQL server integration Services(SSIS), ETL
We have requirement like this:
We have Live Database( LIVE_DB ) and Reports Database (REP_DB)
I want to trasfer the few tables data from LIVE_DB into the REP_DB for end of the day using SSIS
If any new records are added, updated or deleted in LIVE_DB, these should reflect in the REP_DB, Our requirement is not to delete the old data, we should append or delete or insert the new transaction data in REP_DB.
Thanks in advance, if anyone help me in resolving this issue.
Regards,
Bhushanam.
Hi,
View 8 Replies View RelatedSimilar to the BizTalk Business Rules engine does the SSIS provide any support for independent business rule management?
I would guess that through the use of Embedded CLR we can invoke the Business rules stored in the Business Rules Engine (either Biztalk Rule Engine or ILOG Rule Engine). Is there a construct in the SSIS similar to the BizTalk Call Rules Construct in the Biztalk Orchestration.
If this mechanism is not the preferred mechanism then are there any other mechanisms offered by SSIS which facilitate the use of Business Rule Engine Components within SSIS which make it easier to manage the business rules outside of the deployment.
Thanks

I'd like to create some basic ETL SSIS packages, and I worked very comfortably in 2008R2.
For 2014, I started with this tutorial:[URL]However, it says to go to Start->All Programs->Microsoft SQL Server->SQL Server Data Tools.
I did explicitly install SSDT when I installed VS2015. I also installed it separately. I see SSDT listed in Programs, and SSIS is running according to SQL Server Config Manager, and Services. Half of Microsoft's docs seem to be 2012 era, which is a shame because 2014 is out and it's nearly 2016...
how do I get to the GUI where I can design ETL packages?
We'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.
we have a table with xml column. This column has a large xml data . I am trying to use ssis to import xml from sql column (table a) to destination (another table).
steps which i did in ssis:
1. execute sql task:
fetch the xml column by query and store "full result set" into an object variable.
2. foreach loop:
select Ado enumerator option and select variable which has reset set of execute sql task. In variable mapping selected a new variable of type string.
when I run package I get below error:
"Error: ForEach Variable Mapping number 1 to variable "User::variable" cannot be applied".
Have Visual Studio 2008 R2 with SP 2 installed. Due to a merger we now have a MySQL database that we need to update from SSIS. Everything works except for the table insert or update. Would upgrading to SP 3 or SP 4 maybe useful with that?
We have installed the latest driver from MySQL. Have tried the ADO.Net and ODBC drivers with similar results when we try to update the database.
I have a ETL ( SSIS ) Process in which i am loading around 150 tables in each run. ( Truncate and Insert ). I have four packages each from different sources. ( Each package loads different tables and different numbers )These are run on weekly basis one after the other. Each package is taking around 60 to 90 minutes each. Now i want to track the progress of the ETL on my front End application.
We want this in two ways.
First Way : I need to show the user how much percent of ETL Process is completed
Second Way : I need to show the No of tables completed and how many rows have been completed in the ongoing table ( which is in process )
how to design the table and ssis process.
Im newto SSIS. I want to develop package for data validation.
FirstName
1. Mandatory field checking: if Null, reject the record
2. If field length > 50, then reject the record
SSN
1. If field length > 12, then reject the record
2. If SSN is not in valid format, issue warning and process rhe record without SSN value.
3. Valid format: 9 digit numeric values should present after striping off all non-numeric characters.
4. Only send 9 digits to MDM
Like these i have 30 rules. And I have to shop the error msg if the validation fails like "Mandatory feild is missing".
How to use derived columns in SSIS
string to datetime
Input value : (string)

Note : Having null or blank value
I'm unable to find a solution to this truncation error on google.This happens only on one field which has comments. The offending Excel row/column has text that was entered in two lines i.e they entered the data and pressed "enter" and wrote a new line in the same row.Im using an Excel file source in SSIS and an OLEDB Destination (SQL Server) but one column keeps erroring out and I have tried to do the following:
1) Change output column width in advanced editor (still errors)
2) Data conversion tool between the source and destination (still errors)
I have a below JSON script. I need to run the below script, fetch the json files and parse them in SSIS.

I tried using script component, but unable to find how to capture these JSON.
