Using A Excel Source To Get The Data From An Excel File Gets Null Values For A Couple Columns
Nov 19, 2007 I am using a Excel Source to get the data from an excel file to sql server 2005 table. A couple columns are coming in a double precision float, but some values have characters in them, but those values are coming out as null, even though I changed the datatype from float to unicode string. Any inputs on resolving this will be much appreciated.
Thanks,

Problem With Retreving A Excel Data Through Excel Source Component.
Sep 18, 2007
Hello,
I have a problem with retreving a excel data through excel source component.
I have source component as Excel Source which will connect to my .xls sheet.
To retrieve the values from the sheet i am using a query as,
"SELECT F14,F3 FROM [Charac Defn & Assgnment$]"
The column F14 is not formatted so that the format of the cell is "General" I have a different type of values in the F14 column such as "PE","PES",15,20,20.00,8888.9999 etc..
While i click on preview button of Excel source it shows only the text values and not the int or decimal values, its returning NULL for those cells. I tried to use convert function, its throwing an error as
TITLE: Microsoft Visual Studio
------------------------------
There was an error displaying the preview.
------------------------------
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
Undefined function 'Convert' in expression. (Microsoft JET Database Engine)
Is there any other function to change the format of the cell or i need to some thing else
Please help me how to solve this issue.
Pipeline Error-excel Source-data Reader Does Not Read In Meta Data
Apr 16, 2008Hi all, i got this error:
[DTS.Pipeline] Error: "component "Excel Source" (1)" failed validation and returned validation status "VS_NEEDSNEWMETADATA".
and also this:
[Excel Source [1]] Warning: The external metadata column collection is out of synchronization with the data source columns. The column "Fiscal Week" needs to be updated in the external metadata column collection. The column "Fiscal Year" needs to be updated in the external metadata column collection. The column "1st level" needs to be added to the external metadata column collection. The column "2nd level" needs to be added to the external metadata column collection. The column "3rd level" needs to be added to the external metadata column collection. The "external metadata column "1st Level" (16745)" needs to be removed from the external metadata column collection. The "external metadata column "3rd Level" (16609)" needs to be removed from the external metadata column collection. The "external metadata column "2nd Level" (16272)" needs to be removed from the external metadata column collection.
I tried going data flow->excel connection->advanced editor for excel source-> input and output properties and tried to refresh the columns affected.
It seems that somehow the 3 columns are not read in from the source file?
ans alslo fiscal year, fiscal week is not set up up properly in my data destination?
anyone faced such errors before?
Thanks

Excel 2007 PIVOT As Data Source
Jan 18, 2008Hi,
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.

Changing DataTypes In An Excel Data Source
Jun 7, 2006Hello.
I'm importing some data from an excel file to sql server 2005.
I created an Excel Data Source inside my Data Flow Task but it is assuming that the source columns DataType is double-precision float [DT_R8]. It isn't, even though some rows may containg numeric string in the column's cell.
If I go to the Data Sources advanded editor, and modify the data type property of the column, SSIS complains the the error output and the source output are not of the same DataType. If I try to change the error output's data type in the advanced editor I get this error: "Property Value". The deailed error states:
Error at MOVIM 04 [MOVIM 04 [1]]: The data type for "output "Excel Source Error Output" (10)" cannot be modified in the error "output column "Agente Protector" (7662)".
Error at MOVIM 04 [MOVIM 04 [1]]: Failed to set property "DataType" on "output column "Agente Protector" (7662)".
If i let SSIS correct the error by itself, it changed the dource column back to double-precision float [DT_R8].
Is there any way to get arround this?
Thanks in advance,
Hugo Oliveira

How To Change Data Types In Excel Source File?
Mar 8, 2006I'm getting a bit lost in SSIS. I've got an Excel source file that I'm trying to load into a table. I keep getting validation errors that warn about not being able to convert between unicode and non-unicode string data types.
I'm trying figure out where I have to change this and am frankly confused. It seems SSIS is selecting various columns as unicode/WSTR data types, but I want them to import as regular string types.
On the Data Flow tab in SSIS, I right-click on the source Data Flow component (the Excel file) and select Show Advanced Editor. Then on the last tab, Input and Output Properties, there's a tree view for the Excel output. There are "External Columns" and "Output Columns" containers in the tree view.
I tried setting some of these but they don't seem to "take". Do I need to change the data type for each column under both the External and Output columns?
That seems like a lot of work! And, as I say, I tried setting some, but I still got the same validation errors. So, then I go back to this spot (Advanced Editor -> Input and Output Properties tab) and my changes seem to have been lost.
Any help would be appreciated!
Reporting Services :: Excel As Data Source In SSRS
May 19, 2015I want to run SSRS report directly by connecting Excel as a data source. The report runs properly from SSDT, but when it is run from Report manager, some users cannot access the Excel connection and the report execution fails. I am using SSRS 2012 and Excel 2010.I have created the ODBC data connection in SSRS and when I use 'Windows Integrated Security' option for credentials, the connection gets successful. But the problem is that all users does not have permissions to access the Excel inline, but they should get the report working.How can I store the credentials to access the Excel in SSRS with a specific username and password?
View 4 Replies View RelatedSource Data Types In Excel Defined Incorrectly
Apr 9, 2008
I'm trying to import some data from an Excel 2007 file into a SQL table. I created the Source Connection Manager and an OLE DB Source Data Flow Component which uses it. (Correct me if I'm wrong, but I can't use the Excel Source because of the version of Excel the file is saved in.) The outgoing Data Flow Path thinks some of the fields being imported should be of type float, when in fact they have alpha characters in them.
The fields in the database are defined as varchars.
A Data Conversion Transform doesn't seem right because I need the data to come out of the source as string data (which it actually is in the Excel file). Even if I convert it to string on the way to the destination, I would still be missing the original alpha characters.
How/Where do I change it (Source Connect Manager, OLE DB Source Data Flow Component, something else) to correctly identify the field's type?
TIA,
Christy
Excel Source Numeric/string Data Problem
Oct 26, 2006i've been reading some problems with excel source data being force as
numeric type when there are string/numeric type in the data, but adding
IMEX=1 to the extended properties will fix this problem...this is true
but not in my case...
say my excel file have about 40 rows..if row 1-39 in column A are all
NULL and row 40 has a string in it, the string in row 40 will not be
converted and the excel source is forcing this column A data type to be
numeric..having IMEX=1 in there does not work..however..if i add a
string anywhere in row 1-8 in column A, the the string in row 40 will
be converted because the external data type now is a string..
anyone know how to solve this problem?

Excel Source From Variables And Data Type Issue
Aug 22, 2007Hi
I am after some help with the following issue
I have a package that reads a table for a file path of a excel file. This gets passed to a variable and then this file is imported into a staging table for further transformation work. The issue i have is that file 1 may contain data in Column A which is 50 characters long in which case i have to import the excel as a DT_WSTR, do a data conversion to a DT_STR and load to the staging table. However file 2 may contain data in Column which is over 255 characters in which case it would import as a DT_NTEXT which i then transform to a DT_TEXT and then to a DT_STR. I used a fixed file path in the Excel Connection to start with which was for File 1 so the datatype for column 1 is a DT_WSTR. I then changed the excel connection to a filepath variable, put the path of file 2 in my table and called it from my package. It failed as the data exceeding 255 characters in column 1 needed to be a DT_NTEXT. I can change it and it works but if i then run the package using file 1 (less than 255 characters) it fails again as it wants it to be a DT_WSTR.
Is there anyway around this? Am i missing something as i would have thought that by setting it to DT_NTEXT this would cover data under 255 characters as well.
Any help is gratefully aprreciated.
Import Excel Data From User-selected Source File
Dec 4, 2007Is it possible to import data from an Excel spreadsheet using OPENROWSET or OPENDATASOURCE without having to explicitly define the filepath of the source file? Currently, I have this piece of code within a sproc:
INSERT INTO [dbo].[ProductionRequirementDetail]
([ProductionRequirementHeaderID], [SKU], [Quantity])
SELECT @ProductionRequirementHeaderID,
[SKU],
[LAMPS]
FROM OPENROWSET ('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0','Excel 8.0; Database=C:WeeklySchedule.xls', 'SELECT * FROM [Master$C5:Q65536]') AS XL
LEFT JOIN [dbo].[PartMaster] ON (RIGHT([XL].[CODE], 7) = [PartMaster].[SKU])
WHERE [SKU] IS NOT NULL
AND [CODE] IS NOT NULL
AND [LAMPS] IS NOT NULL
AND [LAMPS] > 0
AND [LampTypeID] = @LampTypeID
I would like to remove the hardcoded reference 'Database=C:WeeklySchedule.xls' and replace it with a parameter for the filepath. Is this possible? This is in SQL Server 2000. Also, if there is a way to do this with DTS I'd be open to doing it that way too.
How Do I Extract Data From Selected Rows From My Excel Source File?
Jun 21, 2006The columns in my excel source contain data of different types with the column name being a string and the data in those columns being integers. Is there any way to only extract numeric data , in short I want column names to be omitted. Also the data is distributed unevenly , beggining at various rows in each column.
Thanking in advance :)
Integration Services :: Can't Preview Data In Excel Source Editor Unless Sheet Is Open?
Nov 10, 2010I have a package which has an Excel source with the 'Data access mode' set to SQL command and then a sql select statement. When I try and hit the 'Preview...' button below the 'SQL command text' window I get the following error:
"Error at Standard Data Flow Tasks [source tasks name]: No column information was returned by the SQL command"
Ordinarily this would be down to the fact that my SQL is shocking, I hit the 'Preview...' button whilst the workbook the source is pointing at was open and it works fine??
I can't figure this out, but needless to say the package errors with a NEEDSNEWMETADATA when I try and run it.
Integration Services :: SSIS Excel Data Source Numeric Values Returned As Null
May 8, 2009I'm using SSIS 2005 Enterprise edition, I'm creating a package that reads an excel (xls) file using the "excel source" component, and it dumps the data into an OLEDB destination (a sql server). When I drag the excel source component and create the excel connection to my file the component automatically reads the columns and their datatypes.
The problem is that I have a column which has numeric data and the package uploads as NULL every number that starts with a zero. (note: in excel this column is formatted as "text", despite it has only numbers, because it's the only way excel maintains the left sided zeros).
So I checked the data types by right clicking the excel source component -> show advanced editor and my surprise is that this column's data type is detected as double-precision float, and it doesn't let me change it. URL... but it only works when the first row of data has a number beginning with zero on this column. How to get the data imported correctly?

How To Pass The Excel Sheet Names To The Excel Source Control Through Variables
Feb 22, 2006I am trying to get the contents of the Excel Files dynamically and dumping into the SQL Database using SSIS. Through WMI Event Watcher, I could find when one or more Excel files dumped in a particular folder and using ForEach Loop Container I was able to take all the filenames and pass it through Variables. But at the same time in the Data Flow, I have to pass each Sheet of an Excel File to the Excel Source control and export the data to my SQL Database using OLEDB Destination.
For that I need to get the names of each sheets in an Excel File and pass it to the Excel Source Control through variables. But when I give Data Access Mode as "Table name or view name variable" and provide the variable name in that, then it is giving an error message as "A destination table name has not been provided".
And at the same time, Since I was not able to provide an static Filename (as I am passing through Variables), when I tried to map the columns in the OleDB Destination, it is not allowing me to map the columns.
So all these things I should do at Run-time using Variables in SSIS. I don't want to hard-code any filenames or Sheet names. If any one of you have a solution, please share with me.
Thanks & Regards,

Meta Data Synchronization With Excel File Source Once We Update The File
Dec 28, 2007
hi all;
1. Excel file Source--> monthly Revenue details
2. Derived Colum Transoformations
3. Oledb Destination
its my flow in one of my packates (ETL job)
Excel file contains monthly revenue details, i wanna import the excel data to my database staging table, so i've created the package.
its working fine...
Problem
if we change the new data for the next month and running the package its not running;
the same file, same format, only we delete the contents, of the file except first row of the excel sheet,
and pasting the new data;
new data is coming from Oracle DataBase in the form of excel sheet ( manually they will copy the data and sending to us)
i open that package in design mode and while double clicking the excel file source it says <column name>'s Meta Data needs to be synchronized
Do you want to Fix this issue automatically with the available external column's meta data
Clearly noted that its a data type issue; i have changed the corresponding data types as it is in the previous Excel sheet which is equivalant to the Table its copying to.
now the package is running with validation warnings, External Column "Invoice Amount" needs to be updated...etc. some 2 or three warning messages i can able to see in the package Execution wizard,
ok, i'm ready to accept these warnings, and i want my package running from my server;( packages had been deployed in to the Centeralized server; every time if we want to run the package, we have the asp.net webpage, that is executing the package in an On_click event)
The package is not running from the server, its due to the meta data change in the Excel file( i guess)
please suggest me some guide lines to resolve this meta data issue, i want my excel sheet meta data should not change when we have new updates in it;
otherwise suggest me some solutions that i can validate the excel sheet before running the package and testing whether the data is in correct format or not? its a kind of Data Profiling activity;
i know its some what crazy, but i need to maintain the system with permanent solution, instead of facing this meta data mismatch issue!!!
some what lenthy explanation--> its needed for my dear powerful microsoft responders. i think i 've explained my problem clearly, if i don't let me know your queries, i'll try my level best.
Using SSIS 2005 To Strip Out Bad Rows In Excel And Then Insert Detailed Rows Into OLE DB Data Source
Apr 6, 2006Environment:
Running this code on my PC via VS 2005
.Net version 2.0.50727 on the server (shown in IIS)
Code is in ASP.NET 2.0 and is a VB.NET Console application
SSIS 2005
Problem & Info:
I am bringing in an Excel file. I need to first strip out any non-detail rows such as the breaks you see with totals and what not. I should in the end have only detail rows left before I start moving them into my SQL Table. I'm not sure how to first strip this information out in SSIS specfically how down to the right component and how to actually code the component to do this based on my Excel file here: http://www.webfound.net/excelfile.xls
Then, I assume I just use a Flat File Source coponent or something to actually take the columns in the Excel and split into an OLE DB Datasource to shove each column into a corresponding column in my SQL Server Table. I have used a Flat File Source in the past to do so with a comma delimited txt file but never tried with an Excel.
Desired Help:
How to perform
1) stripping out all undesired rows
2) importing each column into sql table

ODBC Data Source Doesn't Like My SQL Query
Jul 28, 2006Good morning all,
I have created this query in SQL Server 2005 which uses an MS SQL Server data source - I've tested it and it perfroms as it should:
SELECT DISTINCT
WIP.R0 AS [Job No], WIP_R23.R0 AS [Pack No], PlanningM2.R1 AS [Part No], WIP.R17 AS FKF, WIP2.R17 AS FKF2, SUBSTRING(PlanningM2.R0, 1, 3)
AS Ref, PlanningM2.R5 AS Qty, LTRIM(RTRIM(WIP_R23.R23)) AS Shortages, LEN(PlanningM2.R1) AS StrLen, Stock.R2 AS [Stock Qty],
WIP.R10 AS Status, WIP2.R10 AS [Pack Status], WIP.R15 AS [Qty UC]
FROM C001_UNIDATA_WIP_NF AS WIP INNER JOIN
C001_UNIDATA_PLANNINGM_NF AS PlanningM ON WIP.R0 = PlanningM.ASSY INNER JOIN
C001_UNIDATA_PLANNINGM_NF AS PlanningM2 ON PlanningM.R1 = PlanningM2.ASSY INNER JOIN
C001_UNIDATA_WIP_R23 AS WIP_R23 ON PlanningM.R1 = WIP_R23.R0 INNER JOIN
C001_UNIDATA_WIP_NF AS WIP2 ON WIP_R23.R0 = WIP2.R0 INNER JOIN

ORDER BY [Job No], [Pack No]
I am now trying to recreate this query using ODBC and am having one helluva problem with it as it doesn't seem to like many of the functions I've used, such as LTRIM, RTRIM, LEN, RIGHT and won't accept the parameter I've included, or any other parameter come to think of it.
Has anyone else had a similar problem at all, and could you direct me to a solution if you have?
Thanks in advance,

Help With Modifying A Data Source's Query At Runtime
Sep 13, 2007Please help figure out what is wrong with my code. The script is supposed to load a package (from file). The loaded package already has everything set up to run a query against a local server and output the results to an Excel file. The reason for the outer script is because I need to change the query based on a global variable. When the query changes, though, I think the existing dataflow Path is no longer valid, so I should remove it and re-create another one with the new input mappings. Here is my code, which runs and throws an exception at the AcquireConnections call.
The error is
Error: 0x2 at Script Task: The script threw an exception: Exception from HRESULT: 0xC020801B

Query Date Range SQL Data Source Control
Jan 24, 2008I have a DB with the folloing fields... ArticleID, ArticleTitle, PublishDate(DateTime Field), EndPublishDate(DateTime Field).... What I want to do is show in a list view only the articles where the date is on or after the PublishDate and before or on the EndPubishDate.
I thought I could simply do something like this
SELECT ArticleTitle, PublishDate, PublishEndDate, PublishedFROM UserArticlesWHERE (Published = @Published) AND (PublishDate >= @PublishDate) AND (PublishEndDate <= @PublishEndDate)
Well I can't... can someone explain how I can do this please... I understand the the PublishDate and EndPublsihDate need a variable... The info is in the DB I just don't know how to do what I need to.
Thanks,
Query Results SSIS Data Flow Source Adapter
Jun 1, 2006Hi,
Quick question on how SSIS handles queries from Data Source in a Data Flow. I noticed that when I run a particular query from Query Analyzer it takes forever. But, when I run the same query in SSIS data source in a data flow. The query results are immediate.
The query plan is already cached in SQL.
Is this just something which I am seeing incorrect or is there some bit of optimization in there in SSIS. As per my understanding SSIS does not optimize the source query.
Thanks,
Gaurav
SSIS OLEDB Data Source Query Parameters Connect To Oracle
Oct 26, 2007 Hi,
I'm trying to use query parameters with an Oracle OLEDB Source in a data
flow task and I'm having problems.
I've tried formatting the query each of the following ways...
--
select
frq_code,
frq_name,
update_frq,
uptime_frq
from frequency_bcs
where update_frq > ?
and update_frq <= ?
--
Parameters cannot be extracted from the SQL command. The provider might not
help to parse parameter information from the command. In that case, use the
"SQL command from variable" access mode, in which the entire SQL command is
stored in a variable.
Additional information
---> Provider cannot derive parameter information and SetParameterInfo has
not been called. (Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle).
