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 few SSIS (2012) packages that create 3 different unicode XML-files and FTP's them to a remote location. Two of the XML- files are flawless, the third cannot be processed as it violates XML well formed rules. When you open the flawed XML file you can't see anything out order, but invisibly it half way contains the hidden characters FF FE.
The heading <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UCS-2"?> is specified in the Flat File Destination. The XML body is generated in an OLE DB Source with a FOR XML statement.
The offending characters FF FE come right after the header <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UCS-2"?> and right before the first XML-element.
The file also contains FF FE right at its beginning, but that is the BOM (Byte Order Mark).
I investigated the first character generated by the FOR XML statement. That is '<', as it should be. So The FF FE is not generated by the FOR XML statement.
I have deleted the Flat File Destination building block and copy-and-pasted the Flat File Destination building block element from a package that generates well-formed XML files. It didn't work, the characters FF FE keep appearing a second time. So the FF FE don't come from the Flat File Destination building block neither.
No one is responsible for the appearance of the second #FFFE in the resulting XML file, yet those disrupting bytes are there.
How can I prevent or remove those hidden characters?
I have looked for programs that can search and replace characters from files, like fnr, but they can't remove "hidden" bytes.
I need two ssis expressions from the same field
1. remove the 1st 5 characters from the field Service Name
2. take those 1st 5 characters and put them in a new field called Team.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm new to SSIS, using Terdata Attunity connector for integrating data flow between Terdata (source) to SQL Server (Target).
SSIS package is getting failed because of length mismatch between source and Target for Unicode character datatype columns. Reason is Teradata TPT always occupies 3 times more length of actual defined in DB.Â
Even I tried by increasing length of attribute in Source but it didn't work.
I know by converting datatype from unicode -> Latin would work, but i don't want to do conversion since loosing some characters.

Hi everybody,
I would like to know if there is any property in sql2000 database to separate lowercase characters from uppercase characters. I mean not to take the values €˜child€™ and €˜Child€™ as to be the same. We are transferring our ingres database into sqlserver. In ingres we have these values but we consider them as different values. Can we have it in sqlserver too?

Hi experts
When i ran SSIS package from Business Intelligence studio it works fine..but when i use the DTEXEC.EXE /SQL it gives me error at the Data transformation Tasks for Excel Destination
Description: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005.
An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft JET Database Engine" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open the file ''. It is already opened exclusively by another user, or you need permission to view its data.".
I have given the same permissions as the Sql server and Sql server agent to the Folder where the excel file is sitting.
Is there anything else i have to add for the package to work?

We had this ActiveX Task in DTS SQL 2000 that updates an Excel File and
saves it.
================================================
Function Main()
Dim xlApp
Dim Desc
Set xlApp=CreateObject("Excel.Application")
xlApp.WorkBooks.Open DTSGlobalVariables("ExistingBOM_Path").Value
xlApp.ActiveWorkbook.RefreshAll
xlApp.ActiveWorkBook.Close True
'xlApp.Quit True
Set xlApp=Nothing
Main = DTSTaskExecResult_Success
End Function
==================================================
We need to do this in SSIS Script Task since ActiveX Task will be
deprecated. We successfully did an update with OLEDB to update the
excel file but it needs to be saved for all the changes to happen
properly since we were getting invalid results.
Can anyone help with an approach doing so since we don't have access to
the excel object in VSA? Thanks in advance
Hi All,
I€™ve been battling with a client who€™s supplied us with what they consider to be a legitimate CSV file. 1st off let me say that I understand that there€™s no CSV €œspecification€? per say, but here€™s the situation regardless.
The client has a test string in one of their fields that looks something like this:
He said "STOP" so, of course he stopped
The CSV best practice requires that you double quote, so a valid CSV filed would look like this:
He said ""STOP"" so, of course he stopped
Once this is placed into a comma delimited CSV it looks something like this
"Col1","Col2"
"He said ""STOP"" so, of course he stopped","value in col2"
---------------------
So the problem here is that the client saves the above as a CSV, opens it in Excel and say - Look, Excel deals with this just fine €“ why can€™t you handle it?
Trying to explain to the client that SSIS can€™t deal with a field that has embedded commas in it but that Excel can is quite honestly a little embarrassing (especially considering the const difference between the two).
It seem that having embedded quotes in the filed is fine, but that as soon as you have an embedded comma €“ SSIS can€™t handle it, yet Excel can.
---------------------
That said €“ I€™ve also read quite a few posts where people flame the original poster saying €¦ change your delimiter. That€™s all good and well when you€™re the one generating the CSV but when your client knows hinks they€™re generating a legit CSV (according the Excel and quite a few other CSV parsers) it€™s not a pleasant argument €“ especially when you know that asking them to make this change is going to take a few weeks of your project timeline.
I know I€™m not the 1st person to experience the problem, but I did want to see if I could get a straight answer as to why the Excel CSV Parser would dela with this situation but the SSIS parser would not.
Thanks

Getting started.
Hello All
First time setting up A SSIS
Trying to import a excel that creates a new table called lockbox.
Does not import any records from Columns-Contract Id, Owner ID,
that have a null value.
Then in the Site Id -that is a number value- change to a text value
and update it to it text value.
for example: Site Id Column
2 = Ell
3 = CSI
12 = Ell2
Can someone get me started in the right direction?
Thanks for your time and help

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.

I have a SSIS Package that exports data from Sql Server to an Excel file.
I need help figuring out how to have the file name be "Report_02132007.xls". Basically I want to append the date to the file name.
Any ideas?
have now spent 3 days on finding a solution for this problem.
I export data from a table with a money data type column to excel. Before I do the export I'm creating the table in excel with a create table statement in "Execute sql task editor" like this:
CREATE TABLE `test` (
`MYmoney` Currency)
in the datapump I use OLDB source (local sql server) and destination OLE DB connection (excel destination).
When I open up the excel spreadsheet the Mymoney column will show dollar sign. The problem is that it should be Swedish kr currency showing. WHen I'm running the old DTS package in "Microsoft sql server dts designer components" in sql 2005 on the same server this result will be in the currency kr as it should be.
When I'm running the SSIS on my local machine the result also get right.
Any ideas?
Thanks
