Export Table To Excel
Aug 1, 2007
how should I go about exporting a couple of columns of data from a specific database table to an excel spreadsheet stored locally on a client machine (the one the script is being executed from). I am using SQL server 2000 SP3.
I'm fairly new to using SQL server, and not experienced at all with Transact-SQL.

Can any body help me export data from sql database to excel? I am using datagrid method but it is not transferring complete table's data at a time through LAN .i.e. it works on local host ,but not working if I accessing this project from other computer.
public class gridviewexport

public gridviewexport()
{
//
// TODO: Add constructor logic here

}
public static void Export(string fileName, GridView gv)
{
HttpContext.Current.Response.Clear();

{
using (HtmlTextWriter htw = new HtmlTextWriter(sw))
{
// Create a table to contain the grid
Table table = new Table();
// include the gridline settings
table.GridLines = gv.GridLines;
// add the header row to the table
if (gv.HeaderRow != null)
{
gridviewexport.PrepareControlForExport(gv.HeaderRow);
table.Rows.Add(gv.HeaderRow);
}
// add each of the data rows to the table
foreach (GridViewRow row in gv.Rows)

Hi,
I was wondering if there is a way to export just the table names of all the tables in a sql database to an excel spreadsheet. Can I also see the table structure, like which are the parent tables and which are the child tables? Please let me know. I'm using SQL server 2005.
Thanks.

Hello,
I am trying to export bunch of tables to excel files, and some table columns contain leading 0s. I tried to use bcp and found that it's not possible to directly export to excel file with leading 0s. I don't want to export to txt or csv file format since the client needs to update excel file as well.
We now think to use SSIS to do the transformation, but got problem. I used OLF DB as source, Excel as destination. I directly connect OLF DB to Excel destination, but always got error message which said unicode cannot convert to non-unicode. Can anyone explain how I get this error since we don't use unicode in the tables, and I make sure the table excel created used varchar and smallint?
Thanks in advance.

I know that this is an Excel question, but I guess it is much more likely that an SQL person using dynamic pivot tables had stepped on this, rather than any advanced Excel user.
I am exporting a dynamic pivot table to Excel through a Stored Procedure. If the Stored Procedure that executes the dynamic pivot table returns 7 columns in one run, and 4 columns in the following update, then I have 3 orphaned columns that are still displayed in the spreadsheet. There isn't any content related to them, but the empty columns with their headers are bothering enough.
I've been trying to play with the data connection properties, but nothing deletes unused columns from former data executions.

Hi everyone, I am new with SQL and I tried to use the code below to export data from Excel into an existing SQL table, but I keep on receiving the following message.
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.

Can anyone help me on this?

I have to export about 50 excel files from different tables. Some tables contain leading 0s in the columns. If I use bcp to export to xls file, the leading 0s will be missing. If bcp to csv or txt file, there will be no issue at all. But I have to export to xls file in order to let client update that xls file and reload to tables again.
Is there any other ways to do this task?
Thanks in advance.

When I open the spreadsheet in Excel 2000, it works fine. When I try to print, it crashes Excel. In testing, I narrowed it down to the Header/Footer, because it also crashes when I go to Page Setup and click on the header/footer tab.
However, I can print the same spreasheet from Excel 2007.
Am I just dealing with a "you need to upgrade all your clients" situation, or is there a known issue with certian formatting that is passed out with reports that is not supported by older versions of Excel?
I am using Reporting Services 2005 SP2 to serve up the report that is exported to Excel.
Any assistance is appreciated.

Hi All
I've been googling this for a while now and can't seem to find any elegant answers.
I'm looking for an automated way to present a FORMATED Excel Spreadsheet to the Customer from a stored procedure output.
Can anyone advise me the best method of doing this - should I / can I assign an Excel Template to the DTS Task output ?
His mind is set on Excel and the formatting is basic and easy to write in a Macro which I've done, but this requires human interaction to finish the task (Automated Run Once on opening etc).
In an ideal world an individual would send an email to the Server with two formated parameters (@FromDate & @ToDate) and would be emailed back a ready formatted S/Sheet. But I believe he would be willing to just select the relevant SpreadSheet for the Daily / Weekly / Monthly periods dumped.
Thanks

I want to run Stored procedure that is returning recordsets and is using cursors/ temporary tables (MS Sql 2000 Server).
The output of this SP is to be used to prepare an excel Report.
In the Transform Data Task Properties:
EXEC sp_ProductivityReport_ByDay '01/01/2005','02/01/2005'
It shows me the data in the Preview, but asks me to define transformations. Further on the transformations, it does not shows up the source columns (although they were populated in the preview)
When I perform the same task using DTS Export utility, i get the following error:
Error source: MS ole db provider for sql server
Error Desc : Null Accessors are not supported by this provider
context: error calling CreateAccessor. Your provider does not support all the interface/methods required by DTS
Please Help
Thanks

Hello All
First time setting up A SSIS

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?

I have written a query which dumps the output to a table, ideally I would like to select everything from this table in to an Excel file.
Looking @ http://blog.sqlauthority.com/2008/01/08/sql-server-2005-export-data-from-sql-server-2005-to-microsoft-excel-datasheet/
Made me think this would be quite easy... so
1. I created a spreadsheet named test.xls with the column headings from my temp table
2. Saved and closed this xls
3. Tried to run the following:
USE [PEI];
GO
INSERT INTO OPENROWSET ('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0', 'Excel 8.0;Database=C:DELL est.xls;',
'SELECT * FROM [Sheet1$]')
SELECT *
FROM tblCFPooled
GO
Where C:DELL est.xls is where I saved test.xls, tblCFPooled is the table I have populated in the firstplace and PEI is the database name.
When I run this the following error crops up:
OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "(null)" returned message "The Microsoft Jet database engine could not find the object 'Sheet1$'. Make sure the object exists and that you spell its name and the path name correctly.".
Msg 7350, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Cannot get the column information from OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "(null)".
I then found something on a different site:
http://www.mssqltips.com/tip.asp?tip=1202
So based on this I tried:
insert into OPENROWSET('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0',
'Excel 8.0;Database=C:DELL est.xls;',
'SELECT * FROM [T$]') select * from tblCFPooled
And obtained the following error:
OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "(null)" returned message "The Microsoft Jet database engine could not find the object 'T$'. Make sure the object exists and that you spell its name and the path name correctly.".
Msg 7350, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Cannot get the column information from OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "(null)".
(I renamed the sheet1 to T if you are wondering where T$ comes in!)
Before running either of these 'export' queries I did as instructed in the first link:
EXEC sp_configure 'show advanced options', 1;
GO
RECONFIGURE;
GO
EXEC sp_configure 'Ad Hoc Distributed Queries', 1;
GO
RECONFIGURE;
GO
Which produced results:
Configuration option 'show advanced options' changed from 0 to 1. Run the RECONFIGURE statement to install.
Configuration option 'Ad Hoc Distributed Queries' changed from 0 to 1. Run the RECONFIGURE statement to install.
I assumed from that I had successfully enabled Ad Hoc Distributed Queries - Is that correct?
Both methods seem to throw up a similar error, an error which makes me think its some kind of SQL authentication issue.
Has anyone successfully exported from SQL to Excel - if so, any tips?!
(For the record I am using Management Studio, we are running SQL Server 2005, I am doing all this on a Vista Business machine, the SQL server is on a local server on our network here. )

I have some reports that I used vbcrlf in. Whenever they are exported to Excel only the first line appears.
Ex: Name (&vbcrlf)
Address 1 (& vbcrlf)
Address 2 (& vbcrlf)
City, State, Zip
This exports to Excel and displays the name line only.
However, if I close the file that was exported and the extra blank screen, and hit export to excel again for a second time, all of the information is displayed.

I am having a problem exporting data to excel using t-sql. I need to create a t-sql stored procedure that exports the resultset of a dynamic query to Excel where the columns are not know beforehand.
I have been able to do it using bcp, but the problem is that the bcp method just exports the data to an tab-delimited ascii file with a .xls extension. Excel is smart enough to pick it up and parse it out into the individual cells, but the problem arises if the field value contains any special chars that may have been picked up when the user input the data by using copy & paste. Then the columns/rows are skewed for the record that has the field with the special chars in its field value.
I have tried using the openrowset method and if you know the fields(cols) that you want to retrieve, it works great. All you have to do is pre-create an excel file with the first row containing the columnNames for each column. But for dynamic queries, this is not an option. I have read somewhere that you can do a range, but have not been able to figure out to do that yet. You would have to pre-determine the number of columns & rows and figure out the range. Columns A-Z may not be as big an issue, but then I would have to figure out the values for any columns if the column count exceeded 26.
Outside of using Ole-Automation, is there any way than I can achieve the results that I really need? It just seems like over-kill for something that should be a simple task. If it cannot be done outside of Ole-Automation, is there a good example that someone can point me to?
Thanks in advance for any help!

Hi all,
I have a SSRS Report which I have built using only a table. There are many table header rows, detail rows and table footers rows. For the layout of the report, I have merged many Table columns as well.
So when I am exporting this report to excel, it renders the report as it is but I am not able to manipulate any data in the excel till I do a lot of cleaning up. I have to remove the table headers, footers and also unmerge the merged columns etc.
My users are asking that they need a way throught which when they export the data it presents them with just the data which can be easily sorted, added, manipulated.
Is there a way of doing this. I thought about two ways of doing it.
Make another report in which only the data is shown and thus when this data is exported, then only the data gets exported to excel. But this is a very tedious way. Because as the number of reports increases, thi sis going to be a tough task to follow.
Make a web service or a plug in which will be connected to my web form. Then when the Export to Excel is clicked, this plug in will clean up the SSRS Report and export to excel in a way that only the data is exported.
But I dont know much about web services or plug ins.
Could you please guide me that if it is achieveble. And what are the various ways in which this task can be done.
I really need this urgently. Any help or suggestion is welcome.
Thanks

Hi,
I'm trying to use the export to Excel (Excel Destination) however, I wish to supply a dynamic piece of SQL to generate the data.
When I set the properties I just get an option to enter "Table or View", "Table or View as Variable" or "SQL Command".
The issue is that the table does not exist until the SSIS job is run and the columns will not always be the same anyway.
How can I use a simple dynamic piece of SQL (or stored proc) to get a recordset that is simply dumped out to excel - rows... columns... nothing more ?.
Help very much appreciated - Paul.

Hi,
I have several similar reports all with a table with more or less columns depending on the report it self.
On one report I made the table rows with a bigger Height( because I have a small column with big data where I need to wrap)
It works OK on the Preview (Designer)
it works OK on the reports Web Page (ReportManager) .
it works OK when I export to PDF
When I export to Excel the rows are not with the height I specified and not all the data is visible (I have to adjust row height in excel).
Why is this appening?
Help is really apprecieted.
Tks,
