Hi All,
I created a package which runs everydays and dumps the data into an excel file.
The problem iam facing is that -today the package runs and fills in the excel file,tomorrow it again runs and fills in the data without deleting the previous records.......
But i want it to delete the records already present and fill in the excel only with the new records...
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in Advance,

Hi,
I have a package that writes information to a table in sql server 2005. I created an Excel file called ErrorLog.xls with column headers:
AccountNumber and Date.
I have a Data Flow Task that inserts from SQL into the Excel File.
This works fine the first time.
However, I then want to rename the Excel File, delete and recreate it with just the column headers AccountNumber and Date.
I need the Excel file to be empty every time the package runs.
I am able to create an Excel File using Script Component but how can I also add the headers?
Thanks

Okay... I am now about to pull my hair out: something that worked VERY EASILY in Server 2000 doesn't seem to work at all in 2005. I am trying to pump an Excel table into a 2005 database. I go into the Visual Studio Integration Services Project (this is so much easier... cynicism) and set up a project. I have my data source (Excel), I have my destination (SQL Natve Server, database). I set it up the same way that it worked (perfectly) in DTS and I run it... it grinds away and reports back that all is well... no errors. I go looking for the table... not there. I try with an SA login VS windows authentication... not there. I try with a different table... no there. I try with a different database... not there.
I am certain you can imagine the frustration... that is, if you are a user, not a programmer at Microsoft.
Okay, okay... I won't launch in to abuse here... but hey, how do I make this very complicated process now work?
Thanks...
Hi All,
We did the development of SSIS packges on 32 bit machine. We have few excel files which is loaded using SSIS.
Now the same was deployed to anothe rmachine(64 bit). This 64-bit machine does not have Microsoft office installed.
And all packages(which loads excel files) failed. Hence can someone answer my following questions:-
1) In order to load excel files using SSIS, is it necessary that Microsoft excel software should be installed on that machine?
2) If answer to above is yes, Can Microsoft excel viewer be used instead of Microsoft office(excel)?
Thanks

I have an excel file which i am reading through SSIS through MICROSOFT Office 12.0 Access Database Engine OLE DB Provider. My problem is that if the Excel file has data in a column as 123.45 which is displayed as 123. SSIS is able to pick 123 only and not 123.45. however if I change the data type to Numeric in the excel, SSIS is able to read data as 123.45.Any solution other than changing data type in Excel?

New to SSIS and dts. Stumbling along on this one, really looking for resources and help.
I have a flat file, i defined through connection manager
and (for now) a fixed destination excel file I defined in connection manager.
My dataflow, is pretty simple, mapping two fields to each other an amount field and a phone field in a flat file source and excel destinatinon.
the amount column is formated as a number in the excel, and a currency in the connection and both input output properies.
A few questions,
1. why do cells on the excel show up with that green wedge on the upper left? appears to be a formating issue.
2. in the flat file, my amount field does not have the decimal, what would be the best way to apply that? it's should be implied.
3.Everytime I test the SSIS package, it keeps appending to the excel (it actually does not even work right on the second run). What's the best way to have it write to a fresh file? have an ssis script task copy the file from an empty template?
4. Id like to remove the last row? what's the best way to do that?
Thanks for any help or information!
I am using Office 2007 beta. I have a SSIS package that exports the records from sql server to excel file, when number of records is less than 24000 then it exports well, but if number of records is greater than 24000 than it does not export anything to excel file.
But when I give administrative privilages to the service account under which the SSIS package is running, it export even more than 24000.
On prod server giving administrative privilages to service account is not a good option. I don't know what are the minimum permissions it needs while exporting more data into excel 2007 file.
I thought this is the problem in office 2007 beta, but same behaviour is with RTM also.
Thanks in advance.

I have an excel file source, that has a column that is a date column, although the group puts in more that just a date sometimes: example (11/1/2007) or (Sold), the problem is I cant get SSIS to ever see anything but the date, for the cells that have Sold shows me null, or blank when doing a view. Any thoughts??? I am starting to hate excel more and more.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have problems when exporting data into Excel file from SSIS. It all works fine with numeric columns but an apostrophe is attached at the beginning of each text cell. I tried using derived columns and data conversions but it didn't work. It seems to me that problem is in 'excel destination' task... I saw many people had this kind of problems too... Is there any solution possible?

Hello everybody...
I have a very simple SSIS package that loop throught the worksheets of an Excel file and insert the data into a SQL server 2005 table.
The SSIS is very simple and works fine the problem is that after the Package executes if I double click on the Excel file imported I have the message that the file is in use.
I think that the Excel connection manager of the package doesn't release the Excel resourse but this is only a guess..
Do am I right? If yes how can I release the resource?
Thank you very much
Marina!

I’ve been trying for a while now (won’t say how long), to get BIDS to read a very simple Excel file.
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.
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.
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).
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 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 have excel column with numeric and special character values , when I take that into SQL table using SSIS, the special character values enter as null value. the example column values are given bellow

how can I read this values exactly into SQL table?
I have an excel file which has dynamic columns
i.e. Col1, Col2, Col3 this week. next week i will have a new Col4 in the sheet. This will keep on adding every week.
My problem is to Unpivot the data
Date 8/2/2013 8/9/2013 8/16/2013
Stock 1,561 1,661 1,761
i.e. the abobe table should become as
Date Stock
8/2/2013 1561
8/9/2013 1661
8/16/2013 1,761
How can I unpivot the dynamic columns given that the columns will keep on increasing every week.
I have a package which is creating a excel file 'ExcelName.xls' and storing in 'E:ReportingDelivered_Reports'. Now I have to attach this report using send mail task and send it to given mail id.

"E:ReportingDelivered_ReportsExcelName_"+
((DT_WSTR,4)Year(@[System::StartTime]))+
RIGHT("0"+((DT_WSTR,2)Month(@[System::StartTime])),2)+
RIGHT("0"+((DT_WSTR,2)Day(@[System::StartTime])),2)+".xls"
I need file name should be 'ExcelName_20150601' where suffix is the current date. But I recieve file which name is 'ExcelName', which is the original file name.

Do I need to change any values here to process .xlsb file
I have the Excel Connection Manager and Source to read the contents from an Excel file. For some reason couple of numeric fields from the Excel worksheet are brought over as nulls even though they have a value of 300 and 150. I am not sure why this is happening. I looked into the format of the fields and they are set to General in Excel, I tried setting them to numeric and that did not help.
All the other content from the excel file is coming thru except for the 2 numeric fields.
I tried to bring the contents from the excel source to a text file in csv format and for some reason the 2 numeric fields came out as blank.
Any inputs on getting this addressed will be much appreciated.
Thanks,
