When we export data mining output including dates through Reporting Services to an Excel spreadsheet, Excel 2007 subtracts 4 years from the dates. Example, the date 11/16/2006 appears in Excel 2007 as 11/16/2002. How should this be handled? Workaround, bug fix, patch,etc.? Thanks, Sam

Hi,
I have reinstalled Office 2007 (to changre the license key)
after this, the data mining excel add-in failed to load.
the "COM add-ins" displays: "not loaded. a runtime error occurred during the loading"
reinstalling the add-in doesn't solve the problem
installing the 2008 version don't solve the issue too.
There is no other information, what can I do to solve the issue?
thanks.

Haven't been able to find much information on using openrowset with excel 2007 xlsx files. I've tried the following with no success so far.
SELECT * FROM OPENROWSET('Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0',
'Excel 12.0 Xml;Database=\serverfolderfile.xlsx;HDR=No;IMEX=1',
'SELECT f1 FROM [Raw Keywords$] WHERE f1 IS NOT NULL')
If anyone knows the correct way to do this please tell me.
hellow all,

now, how do i import excel 2007 files in SSIS? i don't have office 2007 installed on my computer, but i've got some .xslx that i would like to try ro import. i tried to create an OLEDB connection, but i don't know which provider to choose.
anyway, can i do it without the sp2 or office 2007 installed on my server?
thanks for tour reply!
When importing an .xlsx file the number of columns stops at 255. Does anybody know how to get all columns imported?
Tried saving the file as text and that allows me to import all the columns but it would be much easier to do this directly from Excel.
Thanks
Hello Everyone,
Is there any way in RS2005 to export to Excel 2007 format ?
The reason I'm asking is that we have a report that can potentially have more than 256 columns but for now, there is no way of directly importing to excel 2003 (.xls).
Is microsoft going to come out with an improvement to RS2005 or is there already a way to export to Excel 2007 to bypass the 256 column limit?
Regards,
Joseph
Hi Folks,
I have got a quick question, Is it possible to use office 2007 in SSIS, If so what would be the driver?
or Could we use JET 4.0 itself?
Any thoughts and help in this regard would be appreciated.

Hi all
I am wondering if there is a solution for our current issue i.e. we can't export the query report from SQL report services into 2007 Excel.
We have no problem with Excel 2003.
Any help/reply would be much appreciated.

Hi,
I wants to import data using DTS package from Excel 2007. I have tried this by using DSN but i'm not getting Excel 2007 types.
Please suggest me how to Connect to Excel 2007 using DTS package to import data.
Thanks!
I'm creating a small test package that copies a value from an Excel 2007 worksheet into a SQL 2005 database (SP2). When I do an Execute Task, I get the following error:
SSIS Error Code DTS_E_CANNOTACQUIRECONNECTIONFROMCONNECTIONMANAGER. The AcquireConnection method call to the connection manager \loripMandEScorecardsSQLQueryExample.xlsx failed with error code 0xC0202009.
However, if I do a "Preview" in the Editor for this same Excel Source task that fails, the data comes up as I would expect. What am I missing?
Thanks in advance!
Has anybody seen this? Is there a configuration setting or something that needs to be changed?

Hello everyone,
Since I would like to use an Excel 2007 File (*.xlsx) as Data Source, I created an ODBC Connection. It worked fine so far: the connection is established, I get the data as expected in the "Query Designer tab" and I could insert the fields in my report. However, when I want to see the result on the "Preview tab", I get an error saying that the "Report Definition '/myReport' is not valid...".
I don't know what could be wrong in my Report... Am I missing something in the ODBC configuration?
My Connection String is as follows:
Dsn=pl_excel;dbq=C:PublicPL_DataSource.xlsx;defaultdir=C:Public;driverid=1046;fil=excel 12.0;maxbuffersize=2048;pagetimeout=5
I also tried to create an OLE DB connection but I got the same error...
Thanks for your help, I'm waiting for your suggestions...
I am currently developing a report for users who insist on exporting to Excel 2007. When I export to Excel on my PC, the report formatting is fine (I am using Excel 2003), however, font sizing as applied in the report is lost when exported to Excel 2007 (i.e. font size 9 in the report is actually 10 in excel 2007). In Excel 2007, the data which runs onto two lines does not show up correctly - the second line is squashed below the first.
Any ideas on how I could resolve this?
I am new to reporting services. I need to export more than 64K rows to excel from SSRS Katmai. Please let me know how to do this.

We are using MS Excel 2007 Pivot tables to access en SSAS 2005 Cube. Farly often when we reopen an excel spreadsheet with one or more pivot tables we get an error like this:
Excel found unreadable Content. Do you wish to repair
When we click yes the following log is shown:
Removed Feature: PivotTable report from /xl/pivotCache/pivotCacheDefinition1.xml part (PivotTable cache)
Removed Feature: PivotTable report from /xl/pivotCache/pivotCacheDefinition2.xml part (PivotTable cache)
Removed Feature: PivotTable report from /xl/pivotTables/pivotTable1.xml part (PivotTable view)
Removed Feature: PivotTable report from /xl/pivotTables/pivotTable2.xml part (PivotTable view)
Removed Records: Workbook properties from /xl/workbook.xml part (Workbook)
And all the pivot tables are converted to plain text.
I have read about this in KB 929766 but this do not apply since KPIs are not used.
The KB 943088 is more interesting but after upgrading all user with SP 1 the problem is still there, mostly when we open old excel-files that has been created without SP 1 but opened and saved once with SP 1. After that we are not able to open them at all, either with or without SP 1 installed.
Is there some way to €œsave€? pivot tables from destruction? I can€™t ask the users to rebuild all there spreadsheets that have been created prior SP1. What will happen when there is a new SP for Excel? Rebuild all spreadsheets and pivot tables again?
I install add-in and run fine for a while, then all of sudden I could not see Table Analyze tool and data mining tab at my ribbon. I re-run server configuration and re-connect to DMAddinDB (remote server, but I am the administrator), but data mining add-in and table analyzer still not showing at my ribbon.
Then I uninstall DMAddin, re-install it, go through configuration again, but still the tabs are not showing up.
Any idea you can help me get my add in back?
Hi,
We have a excel 2007 file with a Pivot Table in it. We would like to use the same as data source (But all the source fields as it comes for Pivot). The key issue is that the data to the pivot is from a connection and points to DB - but there is no access to DB. So the Excel is static to us with a PIVOT in it.
Is there a way to get all the data that is avaialble as a source for pivot.
Ex. The select query has co1,co2....co 11 from xxxxx
whereas the PIVot HAS ONLY cO1, CO2 AS ROW, CO3,CO4 AS COL, CO5 AS VALUE AND CO6,CO7 AS FILTER AND OTHERS MISSED OUT IN PIVOT.
THe SSIS as such provide Excel 2007 access to Access OLE DB driver with Excel 12 setting in advanced tab. But not sure whether we can give the range (or) a way around ot get all the data as available in excel regardless of what is used only in the pivot.

Hello all,
I am in the process up testing an upgrade from XP to Vista, and the only thing that I am running into is that my linked servers for Excel that I defined no longer work.
The spreadsheet that I am trying to open is in the 97-2003 format (not the 2007 format), yet I keep getting the same error message "Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "TEST1"
Has anyone successfully created a linked server to an Excel spreadsheet on Vista, and if so, please can you provide some insight into what I am doing wrong.
I tried creating a linked server on an XP box running MS Office 2007, and it worked without any issues.
All comments welcome.
thanks

When I connect to an Excel 2007 workbook using the new Microsoft.ACE.Oledb.12.0 provider in SSIS 2005, I notice that any tables that I've created in the worksheet are not recognized in SSIS.
In the OLE DB data source component (using the "Table or View" data access mode) the any table(s) I've created are nowhere to be found in the drop down list. Similarly, when I constuct a simple SQL query on the workbook, such as "SELECT * From MyTable" it returns the error:
Microsoft Office Access Database Engine
Hresult: 0x80004005
Description: "The Microsoft Access database engine could not find the object 'MyTable'. Make sure the object exists and that you spell its name and the path name correctly."
I know I have the name right -- I can use structured references to my named table in the worksheet without any problems.
Does the new ACE provider not support Excel 2007 tables? Am I stuck with using "overlapping" cell references to capture data from tables in my worksheet?
I've SSIS 2005 SP2 and Excel 2007 installed. How come I do not see Excel 2007 on the Excel version list?
Thanks,
Ash

Is there a way to create a SQL 2005 x64 Linked server to an Excel (or Access) 2003/2007 file? In SQL 2005 32bit this was possible. Does anyone know of a solution or a work around?

I'm having a tough time importing some of my legacy database into sql.
I have a number of dbase (IV) files I need to get into SQL. I have tried building a SSIS package with either an foxpro oledb connection or a jet 4.0 one, none of them work bec. of inconsistencies in the data format in my tables (e.g. date fields, etc).
I have tried to save the .dbfs as excel 2007 files, taking advantage of the larger space that comes with '07. Problem is you can't use the import/export wizard with 2007 for some reason and I haven't been able to create a package with the access 12 oledb as I have read.
I have to get some crucial data out of that old system and into the new one and I can't seem to be able to import them properly.
Any hints on what I should do ? (maybe I'm doing something awfully wrong)
Thank you for taking the time to answer my question,

Hello,
I made a package in SSIS to copy some data from SQL server 2005 SP2 to Excel 2007. The package works fine, but generate errors. If I replace the OLE DB destination for Excel 2007 with a Excel destination for Excel 2003 then they errors don't appear. The problem is that I have to use Excel 2007 because the data contains more than 65000 records. I thought maybe it was to much date, but if I limit the amount of data with top 100 it also generate errors.
The errors are:

I downloaded a trial version of office 2007 and the data mining addin. I do not have an automatic connection to Analysis Services, so most functionality does not work. Is it possible to configure a connection with a trial version? If so, does anyone know what the server name is and how to configure it?

Hello everybody,
I have some problems of performance in my machine when i try to work whit a ETL that contains one connection of a excel 2007 file. These file has 3 page and it's 19MB. when i try to edit some data flow, my bids work very slow around 3 or 5 minutes, openning the Data flow source.
My machine configuration is:
Processor: Core2Duo of 1.66Ghz
Ram: 2GB
D.D:80GB
I'm working over a DB engine Sql Server 2005 Developer edition.
So, the excel file has thes load:
Page1: 5 columns X 62000 rows
Page2: 14 columns X 62000 rows
Page3: 12 columns X 123000 rows.
If i work with a file with the same structure but few rows, they work better. How can i correct these situation?.
Thank you!!

Greetings,
Environment:
Server: SQL Server 2005 with service pack 1 running on Windows Server 2003
Clients: Internet Explorer 7, MS Office 2007
Setup:
Our companies reports are a mixture of Reporting Services Reports and Excel workbooks with pivot tables. We want both the reports and the pivot tables to be accessible from the same web page so users have a single entry point into all of the business intelligence tools. We have the Reporting Services Reports working just fine but there is an slight hiccup with the Excel documents. The Excel files upload just fine, but when clients try and download them they are always presented with the following Yes/No dialog:
"The file you are trying to open 'Resource.aspx' is in a different format than specified by the file extension. Verify that the file is not corrupted and is from a trusted source before opening the file. Do you want to open the file now?"
Clicking Yes opens the file in excel but it is opened as Resource.aspx instead of the actual excel file.
Clicking No opens the file in excel as the actual excel file.
My questions are:
1. Why does the file upload correctly as an excel file type but download as an aspx?
2. Is there a way to let Reporting Services associate the .xlsx extension with Excel.
3. Is this even a Reporting Services problem? (I believe it is, because we also use SharePoint and excel files uploaded in sharepoint download correctly using IE7).
Any help or insight is appreciated.

I have a stored proc that runs and produces an Excel 2007 file. I can run it fine within SQL Server Management Studio.
Basically, this is a partial code in the stored proc:
-- export sql server table data to excel 2007
insert into OPENROWSET('microsoft.ace.oledb.12.0',
'Excel 12.0;Database=D: emp est2007.xlsx;',
'SELECT * FROM LicensesrRegion') select * from Licenses
BUT when I have an execute SQL task to run that stored proc in an SSIS package, I received the following error:
Ad hoc access to OLE DB provider 'microsoft.ace.oledb.12.0' has been denied. You must access this provider through a linked server.
Please advise.
PS: I have to run that stored proc in an SSIS package because the SSIS package does some prereq stuff ( create folder, copy template to new Excel output file) then finally calls the aforementioned stored proc.
Thank you in advance.
Thanks!
I€™m having a problem with Excel 2007 DM and SQL 2005 and I hope someone out there has a solution.
Consider the following environment:
Windows XP SP2 or Windows Vista, Excel 2007, Data Mining Add-in, SSAS 2005 (with session mining models enabled, an AdventureWorksDW cube deployed and drill-through actions available).
Now take the following steps:
1. In Excel 2007 set up a connection to SSAS
2. Connect to the cube and create a new pivot table report (drag and drop whatever you like)
3. Right-click on one of the cell values in the data region and either select a drill-through action, or, select Show Details in the context menu
4. Ensure that you have at least 10 detailed records that are generated on a new worksheet page; you should have a time-based column in your detailed records
5. Select the table of detailed data, then select the Analyze tab (within the Table Tools grouping) which appears in the topmost menu above the ribbon
6. Click the Forecast button in the ribbon and choose both the field which you want to predict as well as the time-based column (from step 4) as well as the number of time periods to forecast
7. Finally click OK.
1. Having followed these steps on both WinXP SP2 and Vista, I keep coming across the exception: HResult:0x800A03EC. Any ideas as to why this exception pops up? If I was using a normal table of data (which was not generated from a Show Details or drill-through action), then the Forecast button works fine.
I googled it and thought the localization settings for SSAS 2005 and Excel 2007 needed to be the same (initially they weren€™t). I€™ve tried removing the auto-filters which appear atop each column in the detailed data table prior to clicking the Forecast button, and, I€™ve also tested for a series of data across a number of time periods with the same result.
Also, a colleague of mine discovered that the column headers that appear by default from a drill-through start with "$[", and, in removing them the Forecast function appears to work.
I would have thought there would be a seamless transition in Excel 2007 between data retrieved from a cube and the DM Add-in featueres (or at the very least, a more meaningful exception message than the one presented).
Is there something I€™ve missed, or, is there a KB article I haven€™t come across yet? As I know for a fact that the problem is reproducible, is there a fix to this problem on its way to us? Is there a useful workaround that doesn't require manual intervention?
Thanks,
A.
