I am trying to obtain data from CSV file (in Excel) to SQL Server table using Openrowset command. There is one issue I am facing – The columns which have blank values in the first 20 records and then only has a proper value in the 21st record are not getting imported correctly. For such columns, I get a NULL for the proper value as well. I need to proper value to come. Any suggestion?
Thanks in advance,

im running a dynamic query with open rowset in it
pseudocode:
@CMD=declare @ RETURN SELECT @RETURN =SUM(X) FROM OPENROWSET(....) SELECT @RETURN
EXEC @CMD
This pseudocode dipplay the result of @return
the problem:
capture @return into @myvalue outside the dynamic sql scope
something like
Select @myvalue=exec(@cmd)
I don't wanna run on ditributed transaction like this
insert mytable
exec(@cmd)
thanks,

Hi,
I am getting an error
'Server: Msg 7416, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Access to the remote server is denied because no login-mapping exists'
when i run the below code,
SELECT a.* from
OPENROWSET('SQLOLEDB',
'Data Source=SA3KNX;
Integrated Security=SSPI;
Initial Catalog=[Mis Mart];
Persist Security Info=False;
Initial Catalog=Mis Mart;',
'select * from [Mis Mart].dbo.Dim_Cus') as a
Can you please help resolve this. The server SA3KNX uses windows authentication and I run this code in another serer 'SEBDTD3' which uses SQL server authentication. How can i retrieve data from a server that uses windows authentication.
Regards,
Sharan.

The following statement fails when using SQL Analyzer under sa but works on all of our development and staging server. All are SQL Server 2005 SP1. We upgraded production over the weekend from SQL Server 2000, creating a new instance machinenameSQL2005.
SELECT *
FROM OPENROWSET('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0',
'Excel 8.0;Database=d:data est.xls',
'SELECT * FROM [Sheet1$]')
The error we are getting only in prodcution is:
OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "(null)" returned message "Unspecified error".
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "(null)".
Any help seriously appreciated,

I have a test server (TEST1) running SQL 2012 and Windows 2012R2. One of the developers wants to use OPENROWSET to read in data from an Excel 2010 file (an xlsx file).
I have loaded the Microsoft Drivers in "AccessDatabaseEngine_64.exe" and enabled the Ad Hoc Distributed Queries option in SQL.
This is the sample code we are working with:
SELECT
X.MEMBID
FROM OPENROWSET(
'MSDASQL',
'Driver={Microsoft Excel Driver (*.xls, *.xlsx, *.xlsm, *.xlsb)};DBQ=etworkserverFolder1Folder2MEMBIDs.xlsx',
'SELECT * FROM [Sheet1$]'
) AS X
I can run the sample query from my laptop with SSMS (I have admin rights) and I can also run it as SA from my laptop. So all is good, right?
But if I RDC into TEST1, I cannot run the query. I get this error:
OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "(null)" returned message "[Microsoft][ODBC Excel Driver] Your network access was interrupted. To continue, close the database, and then open it again.".
OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "(null)" returned message "[Microsoft][ODBC Excel Driver]General error Unable to open registry key Temporary (volatile) Ace DSN for process 0x574 Thread 0xb74 DBC 0x1d07f08 Excel'.".
OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "(null)" returned message "[Microsoft][ODBC Excel Driver]General error Unable to open registry key Temporary (volatile) Ace DSN for process 0x574 Thread 0xb74 DBC 0x1d07f08 Excel'.".
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "(null)".But wait! It gets better.
I can run the query as SA from TEST1.
And of course, the developer can't run it either.
And it works fine in the production server.
I'm thinking the basics are there but something isn't right in some permission somewhere.
I am trying to use OpenRowSet to read from a csv file. I run a query like this:
select *
from OpenRowset('MSDASQL', 'Driver={Microsoft Text Driver (*.txt; *.csv)}; DefaultDir=C:data;','select * from data.csv')
This works very nicely on my development system. However, when I try to run the same query on my production server, I get the following error message:
OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "(null)" returned message "[Microsoft][ODBC Text Driver] System resource exceeded.".
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "(null)".
I also tried with the Jet driver:
select *
from OpenRowset('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0', 'Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:data;Extended Properties="text;HDR=Yes;FMT=Delimited";', 'select * from data.csv')
The error was:
OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "(null)" returned message "Unspecified error".
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "(null)".
I have run "sp_configure 'Ad Hoc Distributed Queries', 1" and "RECONFIGURE". I have checked and double checked the file names and assigned full control to everyone for the folder and file.
I tried to create a linked server to the folder, but got the same error messages. I created an odbc system data source to the folder, but had all the same problems using the dsn as well.
The server is SQL 2005 running on Windows 2003. I am current with service packs and MDAC updates.
As far as I can tell, the db configuration of my dev box and productions box are the same. I am not using any linked servers on either machine.
It seems obvious that there is some configuration setting I have missed. Anyone have any ideas for me?
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 have an XML file about 25MB. When I read it with openrowset it gives me 'System.OutOfMemoryException'. The machine I'm running has 16GB of RAM and memory is definetely not exceeded. When I run smaller XML files it works fine.
I've read that older versions of SQL Server had this problem and it was caused by the parser having limited amount of memory. Is this still the case? Is there a way to change this?
I am writing a custom query to determine if a legacy table exists or not. From My CMS Server I already have all the instances I have to query and I store the name of the instance in the @Instance variable. I cannot get those stubborn ticks to work right in my query.

DECLARE @Found tinyint

Hi,
I just upgraded to SQL server 2005 and some of my Openrowset to Oracle doesnt work. I found out that the issue occur with field with structure Numeric.
The issue is not solve even when I try to cast the field to varchar. sometimes it succeeded and sometimes I get error 7320 & 7321.
I'm using Oracle connector from SQL to Oracle.
I've 64 bit SQL Server.
Attach the code, the Numeric field is SCORE.
select *
FROM
OPENROWSET('ORAOLEDB.ORACLE',aaaa;bbbb;cccc,
'SELECT AUDIT_OPRID, AUDIT_STAMP, AUDIT_ACTN,EMPLID, ACCOMPLISHMENT, MAJOR_CODE,
CAST(SCORE AS Varchar(250))
FROM SYSADM.PS_RTA_ACCOMPLISHM WHERE 1=2')
Anyone can advice on resolution?

Hi,
I need to pass data from a SQL Server data base to an Access data base. To do this I use the OPENROWSET as followed:
FR
INSERT INTO OPENROWSET('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0', 'C:Aux.mdb'; 'Admin'; '',Test) (Id, Name, TypeId) SELECT Id,Name,TypeId
FROM Test
ORDER BY TypeId
FR
On SQL Server 2000 or MSDE the data is transfered as expected, respecting the specified order. But when I run the same clause on a SQL 2005 EE the data is transfered, but the order is not respected.
So my question is if I have to activate an option for the order to be respected or if this is a bug.
Best regards,

I have a directory with images and a table in my DB with the path of each file. The main application allow me to create reports where I can display an image, so I was thinking to use a query like:
SELECT [ID]
,[PT_CODE]
,[FILE_PATH],
CASE WHEN [FILE_PATH] IS NOT NULL THEN
(SELECT * FROM OPENROWSET(BULK [FILE_PATH], SINGLE_BLOB) TT)
END
AS IMAGE_LOADED
FROM [DB].[dbo].[TABLE_MR_FILES]But I keep getting the error:
Incorrect syntax near 'FILE_PATH'.I have try multiple combinations without luck to make the OPENROWSET read the path stored in the column [FILE_PATH]. What am I missing?
Note: I am using MSSQL 2012. I don't want to import the images into the DB just load them in the fly as needed by the report runned from the application. I have full access to the DB so if a store procedure is the solution I can go with it.
Hi,
I am having a recurring issue that involves a stored proc using OPENROWSET to query an excel file. I used the surface area config to enable this on the server, and made sure that is still set. After an undetermined amount of time, the OPENROWSET query starts failing with this message:
OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "(null)" returned message "Unspecified error".
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "(null)".
I corrected this previously by restarting the SQL server, but not before I checked permissions, the excel file itself, etc, and that was the last thing to try.
I am using SQL 2005 with SP1 installed - my primary approach to tackling this issue is to install the SP2, but I did not find this bug referenced in the fixes, and was wondering if anyone else had further insight.
Thanks,

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm working on a search engine right now, and I am querying out a set amount of information at one time. How can I grab the last row count of a query, and use that as a starting point, or index when a "Next 100" is pressed. For instance, a person searches through a user table, but only wants 25 users at a time. So the beginning index is 0 to 25. In my query, I have "SELECT TOP 25 from users", but now when the person searching want's to move to the next 25 users, so the index would be 26 to 50, how can I hold the last row displayed? It gets a little more complex also, if a user is searching by last name, the rows will be staggered. Is there a SQL function which will grab the number of the last row displayed? I've looked through the SQL Book, and was unable to find a function that does this, or anything close to it. I hope I made sense of this question, if you need more information, email me and I will try to clarify. Thank you for any information or hints.

Each employee can have multiple locations where they have sold(let's say up to 50). I only want the names of the top 3 locations. The closest I can get is filtering the dataset by a HAVING clause > a dollar amount but this still gives me between 3 - 12 records for each plus I have to literally enter each salesperson's number as it stands now.

I have a new computer, clean, I installed WinXP, and I want to connect a SQL Server (other computer in the same network)
For this I installed the client tools from SQL SERVER 2000 kit. Ok.
When I try to connect to the server, I can't connect through "trusted connection", only whit user name and password.
I mention that I set the sql server in mixed mode autentification.
When I try to connect from other computer (my laptop, or other computer from this network) I can connect both types of connection: trusted and with
sa (for example)
The question is:
How I can set up a "trusted connection" at SQL Server?
The computer is completely new, clean and has win xp with sp2.

Hi everyone,
I'm stuck with this silly thing but I haven't idea how to obtain the path for the log file specified in a SSIS package programatically.
This snippet of code works fine:
Dim pkg As New Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Package
Dim app As New Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Application
Dim pkgResults As DTSExecResult
pkgLocation = "C:Documents and Settings40990880Mis documentosVisual Studio 2005ProjectsProyecto de SSIS3Proyecto de SSIS3ProvaPrimera.dtsx"
pkg = app.LoadPackage(pkgLocation, Nothing)
pkgResults = pkg.Execute()
After execution I'd like to see the log file which is allocated in the same place than DTSX file. But how??
Using pkg.LogProviders.Item(0).Name appears description reference "SSIS log provider for Text files1" but no the name of the file or its path
Thanks in advance for any thought or advice,
