SSIS Problem With Excel
Feb 8, 2006
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

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.

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?

I have 25 columns in my excel which is the second row in the excel. I have merged column comprising of 3-4 columns so like wise 7 columns as the 1st row. How can I suggest SSIS that 2ns row in the header or column names? Is there a way to validate values in each cell in excel for their data types using SSIS?
Also is there any way using SSIS that I can refer to specific cell in the excel?

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

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.

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

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

Hi all, I have never used SSIS before, but am looking to use it in this aspect:
1) A user uploads an Excel file into Sharepoint. This will be through a Document Library in a Sharepoint page.
2) When this file is uploaded, I'd like SSIS to notice there is a new file and process it - it will pull information from the Excel file, put it into a database, and - if this is possible - delete the new file.
3) This is iffy. Can SSIS then generate an InfoPath document from the information stored in the database? If not, I can just have a InfoPath query form.
I'd just like to know if this is possible. If you have any helpful links, please let me know - I would greatly appreciate it!
Thanks,
James

Hello! I have an SSIS package that basically collects Excel files from an FTP server, deposits them to a file share on a SQL server and then processes each Excel file into a SQL 2005 database using the ForEach enumerator.
The package runs flawlessly when executed directly on the SQL server. The problem starts when I set this package to run via the SQL Agent. I have looked through these forums and other places and have done what this article suggested http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918760; changing my package protection to
"Dont Save Sensitive" and setup the package to store its configuration in a SQL table. Despite all this I still continue to get this error when the package is run via the Agent:
SSIS Error Code DTS_E_CANNOTACQUIRECONNECTIONFROMCONNECTIONMANAGER. The AcquireConnection method call to the connection manager "ExcelSourceFile" failed with error code 0xC0202009. There may be error messages posted before this with more information on why the AcquireConnection method call failed.
The Excel files are not password protected, no funky settings, nothing complicated, its just a plain Excel file with a few rows of data on one worksheet. The package transfers the files from the FTP server to the share on the SQL server with no problem, I can see that the files exist on the share, so it isnt a case of the Excel connection manager not finding any files to process.
The Agent account is running under administrator privileges and has full access to the share, so it shouldnt be a permissions issue either.
I have no idea what else to check, any ideas?
Thanks!

I am using SSIS to export data from a table to an Excel spreadsheet. This all seems to work put just fine. The user would like a data in column B1 to say when the spreadsheet was created. Is there a way within SSIS to do this. I was looking at using a .NET script but it accesses the spreadsheet as a table so I do not know how to insert data above the headings in row 1. I believe the OleDB provider using column 1 as it column names for the table. Maybe I am just going about the whole think wrong?

Hi,
I'm trying to create an SSIS package and exporting to excel using data flow task data conversion. (This is the first time I am writing to you and I am doing so since I have spent a lot of time researching this subject. Your blogs were very helpful. I changed the output folder formats in ADVANCED EDITOR and then changed the excel file data types.) I finally got it to work... somewhat!
My exported excel data contains sevearal formats currency, text and DT-I4. However when it exports,the excel file does not retain the datatypes purely. I then inserted an empty row below column names and changed the data types for the fields. It has worked so far for only currency data types. The text fields are still in general format. There's still the issue of the empty line which best be removed. I also need to e-mail this spreadsheet.
Please help with the datatypes.
Thanks much in advance!

I need to populate three worksheets within the same workbook with data from SQL 2005. However, I am not sure how to handle the custom formatting. Even if I use a template, my data does not start at Row 2 for any of the worksheets.
Under SQL 2000 DTS, I used to work directly in an ActiveX script task to instantiate an Excel workbook and loop through the data, placing it in the correct cells, handle formatting, etc. I cannot seem to find any way to do this in SQL 2005 but perhaps I am missing an easier option?
Does anybody have a solution?
Kind regards,
Steve

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...

Good morning all,
I have been dealing with a recurring problem importing Excel data into SSIS. When I pull data in from an Excel source, the data is somehow changed. In the most recent example of this, I was importing about 28,000 rows from a single sheet of Excel data, all of it formatted as Text on the Excel side. The key field, Charge_Code, is an 8 digit numeric field but it may eventually contain alphanumeric identifiers so I am interpreting this as text. The majority of the rows import without any obvious errors; however, about 7,000 of these Charge_Codes are not being passed over into the subsequent components properly. For example, I had a Charge_Code that was 30100100 in my Excel source, but it came across as 30100000.
I've tried a number of tricks to solve this problem, including changing the Jet row sample "guess" parameter and using the IMEX driver directive described here: http://msmvps.com/blogs/nickwienholt/archive/2006/03/15/86379.aspx.
Interestingly enough, if I save the Excel spreadsheet into a CSV and use the resulting CSV file as my data source, these problems disappear.
I have experienced the same type of problem on 2 different computers, using several different packages and Excel sources. Are these problems common to those using Excel as SSIS data sources, and if so are there any reasonable workarounds to solve?
Thanks in advance,
Tim

I have a problem, and I'm fairly sure I know what the answer is going to be, but I'll ask it anyhow.
I have a database which I switched over to SQL 2005 last year, and in the process converted all the DTS packages I had to import the data over to SSIS. We have several reports that we generate to Excel files, and I attempted to migrate these over also, but they would never run in production. Worked fine in when I developed the packages, but nothing I did would make them run in production, so I droped back and punted by modifying the DTS packages to point to the new database. Everything works fine that way, but we want to retire the old SQL box.
When I started digging into the problem by running the package from the dev platform on the production box, I got the following error info:
Error: 0xC0202009 at TSC_Outbound_Calls, Connection manager "Excel Connection Manager": An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040154.
An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft OLE DB Service Components" Hresult: 0x80040154 Description: "Class not registered".
Error: 0xC00291EC at Create Excel Table, Execute SQL Task: Failed to acquire connection "Excel Connection Manager". Connection may not be configured correctly or you may not have the right permissions on this connection.
Task failed: Create Excel Table
What I have seen about this error is that it cannot find a 64-bit Excel driver, which (I believe) does not exists. So, as the server is already built with Server 2003 64-bit and SQL 2005 64-bit, does anyone have a suggestion to help me get these exports working again, or am I as stuck as I think I am?
Rob
