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?

I have to transform 500 columns from an excel sheet to Sql Server. In Excel 2k3 , I can read a max of 256 columns only.If I use Excel 2k7, then SSIS 2k5 excel source does not support excel 2k7. If I use ole db source then again it can read a max of 256 columns.how can we read 500 columns in excel sheet (Around 10000 rows) efficiently using SSIS 2k5.

I have an Excel file with 52000 records. One of the columns is a date column d-mmm-yy. This column is NULL-able. Approximately 12,000 records have a value on this column.
I started the wizard, and it happens to be that the first record containing a date on this column is record 11,012. However, the wizar imports NONE of the values, and the column shows NULL in all records.
Now, if I sort first the data in the Excel spreadsheet so that some records with this date show up at the top then the records are exported correctly.
In my opinion, this is a bug that will stop me to use for using at my department.
Please let me know your opinion on this, and what fix is available for it.

While importing data from Excel source , some column is getting null value even though excel column has value.To Resolve the issue we tried with
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREWow6432NodeMicrosoftOffice14.0Access Connectivity EngineEnginesExcel
1.Change the Value of the Row TypeGuessRows from 8 (Default value) to 0 and ImportMixedType = text
• xls
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftJet4.0EnginesExcel
1.Change the Value of the Row TypeGuessRows from 8 (Default value) to 0 and ImportMixedType = text
the connection string of the excel
UPPER(REVERSE(SUBSTRING( REVERSE(@[User::VarInputExcelFile]), 1, 5) ) ) == ".XLSX" ? "Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=" + @[User::VarInputExcelFile] + ";Extended Properties="Excel 12.0;HDR=Yes;IMEX=1";":"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data
Source=" + @[User::VarInputExcelFile] + ";Extended Properties="EXCEL 8.0;HDR=Yes;IMEX=1";"
by doing the above setting also , the column is coming as null from excel source even though there is data in excel.

I have a SSIS package which is reading from an Excel file.
The Excel is created from a report from another system and sometimes the date of birth formats as a Date and sometimes as string.
I've added a data viewer so I can see how the columns are read as soon as SSIS reads the file.
When the cell in Excel is set as text its read correctly - I can then convert to a date as necessary
When the cell in Excel is set as date its read in US format! i.e. if it was 01/13/2014 in excel its read as 13/01/2014
How can I get round this? Its not an option to manually force the column to be text once exported from the system as my package picks this up automatically.
I have tried
-Regedit set typeguessrows = 0
-IMEX = 1 in connection string
-Set LocaleID = UK in the data flow task to read from Excel

In SQL Server 2000 DTS there is an Extended Connection properties
window that you can set the IMEX property for importing Excel
spreadsheets into a SQL Server table. Does anyone know where this is
in SQL Server 2005 SSIS?

I have an SSIS package that imports from an Excel file with data beginning in the 7th row.
Unlike the same operation with a csv file ('Header Rows to Skip' in Connection Manager Editor), I can't seem to find a way to ignore the first 6 rows of an Excel file connection.
I'm guessing the answer might be in one of the Data Flow Transformation objects, but I'm not very familiar with them.
Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,
I have the following scenario, and my main question is why Excel Formatted file errors out while TXT formatted file does not? Any workaround would be helpful, but I do want to avoid dtexec, and still want to manage it as SSIS.
MAIN ISSUES - permission issue & excel connection issue
SSIS Package Run Directly (not SQL Job, not automated)
* Every format and and folder location works!
Package Run under SQL JOB
TXT Format
A. Project Folder - GOOD
B. Client Folder - FAILS!
Conclusion - TXT Format works, but Client Folder does not have sufficient permission for PRODsvcSQLDMS
EXCEL Format
A. Project Folder - FAILS!
B. Client Folder - FAILS!
Conclusion - EXCEL Format DOES NOT work. Maybe SSIS Excel Connection Bug.

I am new to SSIS.
I am interested in using SSIS to import an excel spreadsheet into a SQL server database. My biggest concern is how to handle/manage errors that might occur when the import process occurs. Can anyone give me any guidance on this?
I could write some C# code to do the import and to create a custom .txt file listing errors that occur on import. Using C# code to do the import seems like I would just be reinvinting the wheel so to speak.

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 have an Excel file(.xls) that I need to import to SQL Server database. I am trying to use the Import wizard. However, when I select the file and click next I get the warning "External table is not in the expected format.(Microsoft JET Database Engine)" . I opened the .xls file using a text editor. It looks like some html document.
<html xmlns="urnchemas-microsoft-comfficeffice"
xmlns:x="urnchemas-microsoft-comffice:excel"
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40">
<head>.................
I also used OPENQUERY to see if it works.
SELECT * FROM OPENROWSET('Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0',
'Excel 12.0 xml;HDR=Yes;Database=C:myexcelfile.xls', 'SELECT * FROM [Table1$]');
SELECT * FROM OPENROWSET('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0',
'Excel 8.0;Database=C:datamyexcelfile.xls', 'SELECT * FROM [Table1$]')
I get the following errors.
OLE DB provider "Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0" for linked server "(null)" returned message "External table is not in the expected format.".
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0" for linked server "(null)".
Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
The OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "(null)" reported an error. The provider did not give any information about the 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)".
When I open the file and save it to overwrite the existing .xls file it works fine.
Is there a way to import such files using SSIS without having to open and save it?
Thanks in advance!

Hello,
I have a problem with the Import of an Excel file with SSIS and hope one of you can help me out.
There is a column with mixed data (format is TEXT) in an excel file and I want to import it as Text (DT_WSTR (255)).
So far everything works fine but some fields like "9760020" imports "9.76002e+006".
My settings so far are:
Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=<FileName>;Extended Properties="EXCEL 8.0;HDR=NO;IMEX=1"
In addition I altered the registry entry from Microsoft.Jet.engine.excel
TypeGuessRows to 0 (ImportMixedType = Text)
Has someone got a solution?
Thankx

I need to build an asp.net/C# application to read values from an Excel spreadsheet. Once the values are read from the spreadsheet, the C# code will do some elementary statistics on the values read. Then the values read and their computations will be written to a sql server database.
My manager suggested that SSIS might be a good candidate technology for doing this type of work. Does that sound correct? My only hesitation with using SSIS is that I want to keep the application as simple as possible, so that the code can be more portable. Maybe might argument is not a good one, but maybe someone can help me out here.

I'm trying to use Excel in SSIS to import the data from spreadsheet to a staging table. The package runs well from the web server using SSMS. But when I deploy and try to execute the package, I'm getting the below error. I've a question, whether I've to install the AccessDatabaseEngine driver in SQL database server or the web server where I'm executing the SSIS?

(Applies to SQLServer 2005 SP1)
We have found that using the SSIS "Import and Export Wizard" using the "Microsoft Excel" data source that there appears to be a maximum column length of 255 characters for any row.
Even when defining the destination table columns as nvarchar(4000), the wizard fails with the errors shown below.
We have found no workaround except manually changing the imput data. There doesn't appear to be any "Advanced" options for the Excel importer as there are for the flat-text importer. So, no question here, just posting the bug so that *next* time someone searches the web for an answer, this post comes up
MessagesError 0xc020901c: Data Flow Task: There was an error with output column "English String" (18) on output "Excel Source Output" (9). The column status returned was: "Text was truncated or one or more characters had no match in the target code page.". (SQL Server Import and Export Wizard) Error 0xc020902a: Data Flow Task: The "output column "English String" (18)" failed because truncation occurred, and the truncation row disposition on "output column "English String" (18)" specifies failure on truncation. A truncation error occurred on the specified object of the specified component. (SQL Server Import and Export Wizard) Error 0xc0047038: Data Flow Task: The PrimeOutput method on component "Source - Sheet1$" (1) returned error code 0xC020902A. The component returned a failure code when the pipeline engine called PrimeOutput(). The meaning of the failure code is defined by the component, but the error is fatal and the pipeline stopped executing. (SQL Server Import and Export Wizard) Error 0xc0047021: Data Flow Task: Thread "SourceThread0" has exited with error code 0xC0047038. (SQL Server Import and Export Wizard) Error 0xc0047039: Data Flow Task: Thread "WorkThread0" received a shutdown signal and is terminating.

(SQL Server Import and Export Wizard) Error 0xc0047021: Data Flow Task: Thread "WorkThread0" has exited with error code 0xC0047039. (SQL Server Import and Export Wizard)
edit: After searching further this is documented under "Excel Source"
in BOL which provides a registry-based workaround. I guess the issue
is that the wizard considers truncation to be a 'fail' case and
there's no easy way to override this behaviour, specify the column
types nor determine which line is in error)
Truncated text. When the driver determines that an Excel column contains
text data, the driver selects the data type (string or memo) based on the
longest value that it samples. If the driver does not discover any values longer
than 255 characters in the rows that it samples, it treats the column as a
255-character string column instead of a memo column. Therefore, values longer
than 255 characters may be truncated. To import data from a memo column without
truncation, you must make sure that the memo column in at least one of the
sampled rows contains a value longer than 255 characters, or you must increase
the number of rows sampled by the driver to include such a row. You can increase
the number of rows sampled by increasing the value of TypeGuessRows under
the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftJet4.0EnginesExcel registry
key.

I am attempting to run an SSIS package that, among other things, imports a spreadsheet from excel into a database table. The package runs without any issues within Visual Studio. I have tried executing the package through both, the MSDB run package and through dtexec (trying to kick of the package through a stored procedure) and I get 2 different behaviors.
Using dtexec (the method I really need to use): The package will run successfully...up to the point when the spreadsheet is imported at which time it fails with Description: The AcquireConnection method call to the connection manager "Excel Connection Manager" failed with error code 0xC0202009. Here is the code:
exec xp_cmdshell 'dtexec /sq PopulateTRTLStationandtRTLUnitMapping /ser SERVERNAME
Running it through the MSDB Run Package UI...It will also make it up to the point where the Excel spreadsheet is imported but errors with: The Product level is insufficient for the component "Lookup Station and Account Type: (1894) ...and 1 line with that same error for every single task in that dataflow. Here is the code it runs.
/DTS "MSDBPopulateTRTLStationandtRTLUnitMapping" /SERVER "SERVERNAME" /MAXCONCURRENT " -1 " /CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING V
The machine is running 32 bit OS Windows Server 2003 SP1 and Db SQL Server 2005 32 bit. I found one forum posting that suggested turning the Delay Validation property to True...but that did not fix the issue. I did create the package with my username with a ProtectionLevel of EncryptSensitiveWithUserKey. I don't think it is related to the account however because all of the tasks (serveral work tables are created) up to the Excel import will execute.
I really need to get this working as soon as possible so am open to any solutions someone can present.

Hi,
I have a requirement where I should be reading the file (I will use File system Task for this) and the header content. I should be able to read the header, validate and when the validation succeeds , I should start process the rest of the file.
To elaborate this further, take a sample Example. Assume that the header will have the date information. In a given folder I should read the file, will check the date (header being the first line of the file). If it matches the current date, I will start processing and on completion I will archive my files.
Can someone help me on this sample. Thanks
Regards,
Explorer

I'm trying this code in a script task inside a foreach loop that gets a file in a foreach file enumerator and maps it to a variable FileName.
In the script task I'm setting the ReadOnlyVariables to @[User::FileName]

Public Class ScriptMain
Public Sub Main() Dim fname As String = CType(Dts.Variables("FileName").Value, String) File.Move(fname, fname + ".processed") Dts.TaskResult = Dts.Results.Success End Sub
End Class
But now getting this error:
Error: Failed to lock variable "\xxxxDataf1.csv" for read access with error 0xC0010001 "The variable cannot be found. This occurs when an attempt is made to retrieve a variable from the Variables collection on a container during execution of the package, and the variable is not there. The variable name may have changed or the variable is not being created.".
As you can see the variable does appear to be resolving.

I have a simple SSIS package -> It reads a local text file which has 10 rows of data ( id, name, telephone # ) and puts it into a table.
It uses the "SSIS Flat File source" to read and a "SQL Command" to insert into the table. I can see that it reads line by line and puts each line into one row in my table.
Now, my production data is over 5 GiG of mainframe data and it seems their data is arranged in some hierarchical form.. so the position or arrangement of data in that file is important.
I pulled the data using my package and as far as I can see , my SSIS package pulled one line at a time ( from the flat file) and pushed it into my table. For each row, I also created an identity column in my table to be able to identify the positional arrangement of the hierarchical data and then use relational mappings to suit our business needs.
In all of this, my assumption is -
"SSIS reads one line at a time, inserts to my table and goes down to the next line .
It does NOT read a snapshot of rows from the flat file so as to write them into the table using internal ordering methods based on that particular snapshot "
My question is .. is my assumption correct ?
