T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Import Values From Excel Into Table?
Nov 18, 2014
I've already created a table and i wanna to insert values in that more than five hundred row ,that values are stored in Excel files, Here I've the doubt is it possible to insert values from excel sheet? I've current data base of ms sql 2000, if it is possible means, how to insert values using query?
I have 2 identical tables one contains current settings, the other contains all historical settings.I could create a union view to display the current values from table A and all historical values from table B, butthat would also require a Variable to hold the tblid for both select statements.
Q. Can this be done with one joined or conditional select statement?
DECLARE @tblid int = 501 SELECT 1,2,3,4,'CurrentSetting' FROM TableA ta WHERE tblid = @tblid UNION SELECT 1,2,3,4,'PreviosSetting' FROM Tableb tb WHERE tblid = @tblid
I have a DTS package that imports excel spreadsheets. The excel spreadsheet cells contain numbers based on vlookups. Now negative values appear in these cells as -999 but when loaded into the table they appear as (999). Is there anyway way to configure it to just load -999? The tricky part is I don't have control over the format of the spreadsheet cell and the destination table field is varchar. I am hoping there is some way that the DTS interprets and picks up the value as it is displayed in excel. Or do I have to stick with converting it manually by replacing '(' and ')' with nothing and appending '-'?
l've some excel files controlled by Vendor which changing frequently. The only thing does not change is the header name of each column.
So my question is, is there any way to create a new table based on the excel file selected including the column name in SSIS? So that l can use the data reader as source to select those columns l am interested on and start the integration.
table2 is intially populated (basically this will serve as historical table for view); temptable and table2 will are similar except that table2 has two extra columns which are insertdt and updatedt
process: 1. get data from an existing view and insert in temptable 2. truncate/delete contents of table1 3. insert data in table1 by comparing temptable vs table2 (values that exists in temptable but not in table2 will be inserted) 4. insert data in table2 which are not yet present (comparing ID in t2 and temptable) 5. UPDATE table2 whose field/column VALUE is not equal with temptable. (meaning UNMATCHED VALUE)
* for #5 if a value from table2 (historical table) has changed compared to temptable (new result of view) this must be updated as well as the updateddt field value.
I need to import data to a MSSql table from massive (read: a million and a half rows, every single day) logs that come in .txt format separated in tabs with a ";" symbol and then have some stored procedures analyze that data to generate some reports in an excel file with that info. The text files include the column headers in the first row and the data starts on the second one.
The challenge is that the text files differ in column order and count every single day.
The analysis that I need to do only needs about 15 columns from the nearly 90-120 that those files include, and those columns sadly happen to be in a different order in those files.
I have a small problem with a join clause, because i need to return all values from my table BL:
my code is:
SELECT cast(0 as bit) as 'Escolha',data, contado , ollocal ,origem, ousrdata,ousrhora FROM ( SELECT noconta,banco, u_area FROM BL
[code]....
In fact, i need to return 2 accounts (16,35) - x.NOCONTA IN (16,35), but I know that the problem is on the WHERE clause.How can do that, because i need all the condition on WHERE clause regarding my table OL, but also, i need to return my two accounts (16,35).
I have a large excel file that contains some contact information and includes the following columns: Company Name, Company Fax, Company Address, Contact Person
In the db I have 3 tables that I need to insert into: Company table id ([uniqueidentifier] NOT NULL DEFAULT (newid()) Company Name nvarchar (200) Company Fax nvarchar (200) Company Address nvarchar (200)
Contact table id ([uniqueidentifier] NOT NULL DEFAULT (newid()) Contact Name nvarchar (200)
Contact_Company table id ([uniqueidentifier] NOT NULL DEFAULT (newid()) contact_id [uniqueidentifier] NOT NULL, company_id [uniqueidentifier] NOT NULL,
In addition, the excel file will contain the company name more than once (for every contact person in company new row with company name). I need to insert into table Company the company only once. I then need to insert the Contact details into the table Contact Finally, i need to insert into Contact_Company table both the company_id and contact_id
Problems: -How do i insert into Company table the company only once from excel? -How do i insert into Contact_Company the correct contact_id and company_id so that the right contact person will be assigned to the company?
Thanks for the help

How can I use code (wither it be SQL or .Net Framework) to programmatically import 8 different Excel Sheets into One SQL Table (that currently does not exist)?
Hi folks. I am having an excel file. I need to import this file to database and update some other tables with data contained in this file. I would like to automate this process as much as possible. Now, I am just using SQL Server Import Wizard to create a table and then I am running an update query. Is there any (more automate) way to do this?
I am trying to import data from an excel table into an existing table. Also there are more columns in the table than in the excel sheet. I am not sure how to import to an existing table. Also during the import i have to add 9999 to the existing EmployeeID in the excel file.
Columns in the excel file: EmployeeID DepartmentName UserName FirstName LastName Email WorkPhone UserPassword Active
I am very new to the entire world SQL Server databases. I am starting from scratch.
Currently I have a little Website I am doing for myself that is .asp based and will allow users to query some sports boxscores. I hope to create a user interface that will allow folks to seperate team results based on certain criteria...
It is just a hobby of mine that I have been doing for year with excel and now hope to let others like me do it aswell.
here is what I got.
MSSQL 2005 Server with a database. Iam using SQL 2005 Server Express Studio. Therefore, do not have access to SSIS or DTS or anything like that.
However, I want to import several hundred records into a db I created (hosted by Crystal tech). Since, I don't have access to the Server root directory, I can't use the BULK INSERT statement.
I am looking for a method to query an excel file (or .csv something..) that is stored on my local drive and upload it to the Server db tables.
I would like to do this either through SQL with a query. Or I would to add this VB code to the current VB that I use in my Excel file.
Hi! I have to develop an application for transfering data from an excel file into a sql table.The excel file is uploaded to a server.The database(and the table) is on another server.At first,I used openrowset for transferring data to the table.My sql command looked like this(in my asp page):
SQLstr = "SELECT * INTO dbo.shopping_TSR FROM OPENROWSET('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0', 'Excel 8.0;Database="+Server.MapPath("upload/tmb2.xls")+";hdr=yes', 'SELECT * FROM [Sheet1$]')"
I kept getting this error: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0'IDBInitialize::Initialize returned 0x80004005: The provider did not give any information about the error.]
After reading a few articles,I think the cause of my error is that the excel file is uploaded into the folder where the asp script is located.I have 2 servers : one running the asp scripts and one containing the database. Is my error generated by the fact that the excel file is on a different server than the sql server?How could I make this work?
I have a table with data in two columns, item and system. I am trying to accomplish is we want to compare if an item exists in 1, 2 or all systems. If it exists, show item under that system's column, and display NULL in the other columns.
I have aSQL Fiddle that will allow you to visualize the schema.
The closest I've come to solving this is a SQL pivot, however, this is dependent on me knowing the name of the items, which I won't in a real life scenario.
select [system 1], [system 2], [system 3] from ( SELECT distinct system, item FROM test where item = 'item 1' ) x pivot ( max(item)
Create table code ( id identity(1,1) code parentcode internalreference)
There are other columns but I have omitted them for clarity.
The clustered index is on the ID.
There are indexes on the code, parentcode and internalreference columns.
The problem is the table stores a parentcode with an internalreference and around 2000 codes which are children of the parentcode. I realise the table is very badly designed, but the company love orms!!
The table currently holds around 300 millions rows.
The application does the following two queries to find the first internalreference of a code and the last internal refernce of a code:
--Find first internalrefernce SELECT TOP 1 ID, InternalReference FROM code WHERE ParentCode = 'M222' Order By InternalReference
-- Find last ineternalreference SELECT TOP 1 ID, InternalReference FROM code WHERE ParentCode = 'M222' Order By InternalReference DESC
These queries are running for a very long time, only because of the sort. If I run the query without the sort, then they return the results instantly, but obviously this doesn't find the first and last internalreference for a parentCode.
I realize the best way to fix this is to redesign the table, but I cannot do that at this time.
Is there a better way to do this so that two queries which individually run very slowly, can be combined into one that is more efficient?
SELECT CAST(DEL_INTERCOMPANYRETURNACTIONID AS NVARCHAR(4000)) COLLATE DATABASE_DEFAULT AS DEL_INTERCOMPANYRETURNACTIONID, 'SRC_AX.PURCHLINE.DEL_INTERCOMPANYRETURNACTIONID' FROM SRC_AX.PURCHLINE WHERE DEL_INTERCOMPANYRETURNACTIONID IS NULL UNION SELECT CAST(DEL_INTERCOMPANYRETURNACTIONID AS NVARCHAR(4000)) COLLATE DATABASE_DEFAULT AS DEL_INTERCOMPANYRETURNACTIONID, 'SRC_AX.SALESLINE.DEL_INTERCOMPANYRETURNACTIONID'

My tabel is HST_MASTER.Control.
I want to have this query in a stored procedure. What syntax stored procedure i need to make to fill my table.
I have a table with a column AttributeNumber and a column AttributeValue. The data is like this:
OrderNo. AttributeNumber AttributeValue 1.-Order_1 2001 A 2.-Order_1 2002 B 3.-Order_1 2003 C 4.-Order_2 2001 A 5.-Order_2 2002 B 6.-Order_2 2003 C
So the logic is as follows:
I need to display in my query the values are coming from Order_1, means AttributreValues coming from AttibuteNumbers: 2001,2002,2003...and Order_2 the same thing.
Not sure how to create my Select here since the values are in the same table
I have this situation that I need to read a spreadsheet with user names into a sql table where user name is just one of the columns. I tried using oledb connection to read the spreadsheet and sqlbulkcopy to import into sql table. There was no error, but the data wasn't imported into sql. Does anyone have any suggestion what I did wrong or what is the right way of doing this? Thanks a lot. Mia
i have a table in sql 2000 db and want to import data from excel sheet in to the table. my table = Table1 excel file = data.xls is there a simple method where i can import data from the sheet into the existing table?
I am using the import wizard in SQL Server 2008 R to import data from an Excel spreadsheet into a table I have created.
The spreadsheet contains 3 columns that SQL recognises as DOUBLE and they contain a 1 or 0. What data type do the corresponding fields in SQL table need to be? I have tried BIT, INT and FLOAT but keep getting an error (can't view details of the error because I get chucked out every time the error pops up). I know the problem is with the DOUBLE data because when I 'ignore' those columns the import works fine.
I need to make a script in SQL 2005 to import data from an Excel sheet into a SQL table. I am using the wizard to import now. Import from Excel 2000. First row of the excel sheet has column names. Excel file name is: EXL.xls, sheet name is: Sheet1 Destination sql database name is: NM, table name is: Sht1 I use SQL Server Authentication to access the database. User name: ABC and password: DEF Database name is: DB I am using the following setting when importing now: - Delete rows in destination table - Enable identity insert
I need to import data from more than 10 excels having the same format in to a single sql server table.
I tried to use
INSERT INTO MyTempTable SELECT * FROM OPENROWSET('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0', 'Excel 11.0;Database=C:Book1.xls', [Sheet1$])
but got the below error Ad hoc access to OLE DB provider 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0' has been denied. You must access this provider through a linked server.
If DTS package is used then I am not sure how I can place 10 excels at a time so that they can be picked one by one and data is imported in to table.

I asked a similar question like this yesterday but i didnt work the way I wanted it to work. So I will ask in a diffrent way:
I have an Excel list which i want to import into a table in my SQL Server 2005. The ServerTable has one more column (for the the primary key which is created automatically) than the ExcelList. How can i import the ExcelList in a way so that I the first column of my ServerTable is not filled by a column of my ExcelList??
That is how far I came:
select * into SQLServerTable FROM OPENROWSET('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0', 'Excel 8.0;Database=D: esting.xls;HDR=YES', 'SELECT * FROM [Sheet1$]')
I've got an excel file that I want to import into a database table. The longest text in a cell is 385 characters. I've made the fields in the table nvarchar(1024).
I created a data flow task for the import.
When I run this task, I get the following error:
[Excel Source [1]] Error: There was an error with output column "Line Text" (52) 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.". [Excel Source [1]] Error: The "output column "Line Text" (52)" failed because truncation occurred, and the truncation row disposition on "output column "Line Text" (52)" specifies failure on truncation. A truncation error occurred on the specified object of the specified component.
is it possible that there is a restriction on the length of the text ?
I have a master table containing details of over 800000 surveys made up of approximately 400 distinct document names and versions. Each document can have as few as 10 questions but as many as 150. Each question represents one row.
My challenge is to create a separate spreadsheet for each of the 400 distinct document names and versions containing all the rows and columns present in the master table. The largest number of rows would be around 150 and therefore each spreadsheet will not be very big.
e.g. in my sample data below, i will need to create individual Excel files named as follows . . . "Document1Version1.xlsx" containing all the column names and 6 rows for the 6 questions relating to Document 1 version 1 "Document1Version2.xlsx" containing all the column names and 8 rows for the 8 questions relating to Document 1 version 2 "Document2Version1.xlsx" containing all the column names and 4 rows for the 4 questions relating to Document 2 version 1
I assume that one of the first things is to create a lookup of the distinct document names and versions assign some variables and then use this lookup to loop through and sequentially filter the master table data ready for creating the individual Excel files.
--CREATE TEMP TABLE FOR EXAMPLE
IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb..#excelTest') IS NOT NULL DROP TABLE #excelTest CREATE TABLE #excelTest ( [rowID] [nvarchar](10) NULL, [docName] [nvarchar](50) NULL,
I would like to know if the following sql can be used to obtain specific columns from calling a stored procedure with parameters:
/* Create TempTable */ CREATE TABLE #tempTable (MyDate SMALLDATETIME, IntValue INT) GO /* Run SP and Insert Value in TempTable */ INSERT INTO #tempTable (MyDate, IntValue) EXEC TestSP @parm1, @parm2
If the above does not work or there is a better way to accomplish this goal, how to change the sql?
