TSQL + VBA Excel 2003 - Importing Data From MS Excel 2003 To SQL SERVER 2000 Using Multi - Batch Processing
Sep 11, 2007
Hi,
I need to import an SQL string from MS Excel 2003 to SQL SERVER 2000.
The string I need to import is composed by 5 different several blocks and looks like:
Code Snippet
CommandLine01 = "USE mydb"
CommandLine02 = "SELECT Block ..."
CommandLine03 = "GO
ALTER TABLE Block...
GO"
CommandLine04 = "UPDATE Block..."
CommandLine05 = "SELECT Block..."
The detail of the SQL string is at:
http://forums.microsoft.com/msdn/showpost.aspx?postid=2093921&siteid=1&sb=0&d=1&at=7&ft=11&tf=0&pageid=1
I am trying to implement OJ's suggestion:
http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=2117223&SiteID=1
to use multi - batch processing to import the string to SQL SERVER, something like:
Code Snippet
Dim SqlCnt, cmd1, cmd2, cmd3
'set the properties and open a connection
cmd1="use my_db"
cmd2="create table mytb"
cmd3="insert into mytb"
SqlCnt.execute cmd1
SqlCnt.Execute cmd2
SqlCnt.Execute cmd3
Below is the code (just partial) I have, and I need help to complete it.
Thanks in advance,
Aldo.

Hi guys,
When I thought everything is okay with this script, I got a new problem...
I have a VBA's script from Excel 2003 that builds sql script and retrieves data from SQL SERVER 2000.
in order to make the sql running, I need to use a multi - batch processing, to pass and execute every command line once a time.
Up to here, I am using a test case with Account number = '123456' and getting the desire results.
The code below is running okay with the test case, but when changing the account number (mark as yellow in the code) to include all the accounts (or just one other account), I am getting the following ERROR:
run - time error '-2147217871 (80040e31)' - [Microsoft] [ODBC SQL Server Driver] time out expired.
Now, if I take the same code, with the condition that generates the ERROR, and try it into SQL Server, I get the results without errors.
Thanks in advance,
Aldo.
Below the code:

Is there any way that the data can be taken from sql server to the excel spreadsheets using odbc connections?
2. Some of the data taken from sql server 2000 database is loaded into pdf files. Is there any way this process can be automated?

I have around 600 worksheets that i need to import into sql server that are in a somewhat non-table like format. Data defractor seems to be able to do what i need, but i also need to check into doing it manually. I've seen the code to import cells and ranges into sql server, but can't seem to remember what it is anymore. I've also searched through the forums and can't seem to find any examples either. Could anyone post an example or a link with some examples or explaination code. Thanks in advance.

Hola
We are getting symptoms of a 30 second timeout irrespective of what we do, but only on certain machines. Can anyone shed any light on how the connection timeout can be set, as there seems to be a factor overiding any settings we set?
We are working in Excel (2003) connecting to an Analysis Services 2005 cube through a website https://Datasource connection. When we edit the connection string that the file is using (either by forcing use of an exterior .ODC file and editing the settings in there, or by converting the xls spreadsheet into an xml spreadsheet and manually editing the connection string in there) we get no joy: after 30 seconds the error appears:
"Either a connection cannot be made to the [my server address], or Analysis services is not running on the computer specified".
This error is itself rubbish: If a smaller query (one that takes < 30 seconds) is run in the same Excel file and Pivot Table, it connects fine.
What really doesn't make sense is that the exact same file works on some machines and not others. These machines are all inside the same network (and the machines that work have been proven to work on a number of other networks). What's more there is no pattern to the machine capabilities - some newer / faster machines get the error. These machines (that work and do not) have excel 2003 SP3. (Another of the ones that works has Excel 2007).
Changing the connection string to include "Timeout=300" or "Connect Timeout=300" makes no difference, and "Command Timeout" causes a different error so that it wont even attempt to run the query (as opposed to collapsing after 30 seconds of normal progress).
Similarly in the .ODV the tags <ODC:CommandTimeout>, <CommandTimeout>, <ODC:Connect Timeout>, <ODC:Command Timeout>, <meta name=CommandTimeout content=1000> etc. have no effect (the file still gets the 30 seconds error rather than just giving up so no way of working out correct syntax)
The only pattern we can see, and we can't fix this, is that the machines that work have Retail versions of excel, and the ones that do not have corporately licensed versions of excel. We cannot see any difference between them in the Help >Abouts, but thought it might be worth mentioning.
Any help would be fantastically appreciated, we are out of ideas.
Thanks kindly

We have a DTS package that imports data from a client's Excel file. Previously our client was using Excel 2000, but recently they upgraded to Office 2003, and now suddenly when I try to view the transformation task properties I get a Jet Database Engine error: "External table is not in the expected format".
Everything else with the file appears the same (layout, formatting, etc.).
Any suggestions?

Hi guys and gals,
Since monitoring blocks on the server, I have noticed that when I have a whole lot of users thrown out of their apps, it's all because of one PC.
The program name is "Microsoft Office 2003". The user reckons that they haven't opened any Excel files that have any kind of link to the live database.
Is there any known problem that you are aware of where Excel can "remember" connection strings maybe from other files you have opened in the past and would that spuriously throw INSERT, UPDATE & SELECT statements to the database server and that then cause locks?
The idea seem ludicrous to me. I'm stumped.

Hi all,
I want to import MS Excel data into MS SQL 2000 and I am programming this in VB 6.0. I am referring the article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/316934/EN-US/ for this. I can able to import Excel data successfully into SQL database table. But the problem is, the order of exported data in SQL table is not matching that of MS Excel data. All the rows were jumbled, which made it totally unusable.
Please guide me how to Import Excel data into MS SQL in its original order only. Any other method other than what I am following is present; please suggest me to keep the original order.

Hi,
I have encountered an error when attempt to open a report which is exported to Excel using SSRS2003. It looks like this:
Microsoft Office Excel File Repair Log
Errors were detected in file 'C:Documents and SettingsTocsonEIMy DocumentsRigidReports
ptRigidTransactionSummaryReport3.xls'
The following is a list of repairs:
Damage to the file was so extensive that repairs were not possible. Excel attempted to recover your formulas and values, but some data may have been lost or corrupted.
At first I thought it was because of the sheer bulk of the report since when I break down a month's report to every 5 days, it would export without error. So I thought that if I can break a whole report into several worksheets using page break, it might work. Unfortunately, although I did succeed in exporting the whole report into several worksheets, I still encounter the same error. Now I have no idea on what the root of the error is. Note that the same report can be exported in other formats and can be opened without error. Except for a case when I tried opening the same report exported in XML using Excel, an error which might be related to the error above occurs which says that there's an invalid unicode character in the xml file.
Any help in determining the root of the problem and a solution to it?

Hi
I am trying to connect to SQL Express from Excel VBA using an user instance.
I have tried the following connection string:
Driver={SQL Native Client};Server=.SQLExpress;AttachDbFilename=full_path_to_mdf; Database=dbname;Trusted_Connection=Yes;
And I get the following error : Could not open new database 'dbname' CREATE DATABASE is aborted.
Any ideas on what I am doing wrong?
All I want is an Excel document to connect to a .mdf that is stored on a CD (The database will be readonly). I do not want the database to be stored on the users hard drive.
Many Thanks

I have a C# program that sends an e-mail with an Excel attachment. The Excel file is populated with the results of a SQL stored procedure before the e-mail program is executed. The entire process is in a DTS package (populate a temporary table, export the table to Excel, then send the e-mail). It is possible that the stored procedure will return no results, in which case the Excel file will not be populated.I'd like to know whether it is possible (and if so, how) to add some code to my e-mail program that will count the number of populated rows in the Excel file and if that number is <2 (the header row will always be populated), to quit and not send the e-mail.
An alternative would be for the DTS package to terminate if the stored procedure returns 0 records.
Thanks!

I have a stored procedure in SQL Server which needs a parameter and returns a resultset.
sp_xxx 'parameterValue'
I'd like to know if it is possible to launch this stored procedure through Excel 2003 and get the resultset in the active spreadsheet.
I have tried to do this with Microsoft Query but it doesn't allow parameters in queries that can't be graphically represented.
I have tried also through an ODC files but I get an error.
Is it possible to do this?

Machine A is slower to do my nightlybuild (1h 20m) vs. Machine B (50m).I've done no tweaking of the databases. I Used SQL 2005's studio tocopy the database from Machine B to Machine A.The only major difference is the O/S and SQL, the machines are samespeed, however Machine A has twice the memory and faster disk; so Iwould expect it to be faster.Can anyone think of smoking guns I might be missing?TIA

I have a Excel 2000 column which looks like this:
Column A
23456
234-67
2-56
354899865
When I create a DTS package to import this column, only the values without a hyphen get imported correctly..and a null value will show for the numbers that have a hyphen in it.
I've set my datatype to varchar, float, nvarchar, text, etc in SQL Server 2000...but nothing seems to work. I have also changed the datatype in my excel spreadsheet to text, general, etc.
I've tried so many combinations, I forget which ones I've tested...Anybody have an idea what I should try ?
Thank you

Hello all:
I have gone through most of the question posed by people, about importing data from EXCEL sheet to some table using SQL server database. I have a slight variation of this problem.
My excel file contains some information apart from the normal data.
Lets say some 5-6 lines always gives me some info about the data, like its purpose, client info, date etc...
After this INFO my actually data start, which I want to load into table.
I have found some wizard for the same, "EMS SQL MANAGER 2005", which supports most of the file formats, and load data into the database.
But we are planning to not use this tool, instead everything should be done using TSQL.
If somebody can please gives me some idea how this problem can be tackle, it would be a great help. We won't be using any Third party tools, like scripting etc...
We want to stick with just TSQL for this problem.
Thanks a bunch,
sabegh

Hi,
I would like to import an Excel spreadsheet into SQL Server 2005. I can do this quite easily using the Import/Export wizard, and have each row in the spreadsheet transfer to a new row in the database table.
However, I want to import the first few columns of the spreadsheet row into one table (called Products), but put the remaining columns into a related, three-column table, called Product_Details. In the Product_Details table, one column would hold the spreadsheet column value, the other column would be a FK integer value linked to the PK in the Products table, and the third column the primary key as normal.
So, somehow, I would need to get hold of the primary key value when the first spreadsheet columns are inserted into the Products table and then insert the remaining columns into the Product_Details table with two values per row - one value being the spreadsheet cell value, the second being the primary key of the new product in the Products table.
TIA,
Graham.

Good Day,
I have an application that is being developed on Visual Studio 2005 (VB) and SQL Express. The application is set up to use the SQL Express on the development computer, and if an Internet or CD install is built, it installs SQL Express as expected. The question is, when it is time to deploy and put the SQL Express database on the 2003 server, how should the install on the server be done and how should we set the database path to the server?
Thanks,
Dave
