Dear all,
i'm using sql server 2005.
i've 20 queries to run. all the out put should come into excel file and each one to each sheet.is it possible?i've following the great aricle given below.but i didn't get the desired output.i used DTS import and export. it works fine but i need batch file for this.
help me in this regard.
I've created a dts package that exports data to an excel. The data exports okay, but I'd like to make a few changes on how the data is exported.
First, when the data exports to the excel file, it always creates a new excel sheet. How can I map the data to the existing sheet in the Excel file? I have an existing sheet named 'Sheet1'. I've deleted the other two sheets in the excel file, so there is only one sheet. When I created the destination table in the dts package for the data transformation task, I specified the name as 'Sheet1', but when it exports, it creates a new sheet named 'Sheet11'. I haven't been able to correct this.
Second, I'd like to either ammend data to the last row in the excel file, which I'd have to know the last record that was inserted from the SQL table. Or probably much easier, simply drop the existing sheet in the excel file and simply re-create and insert.
I need to do a simple task. I have a oledb source which pulls data from sql server, creates an excel file abc.xls and dumps it with the Excel destination at remote location.
I need to create this file at runtime. However, when i give the location, the Excel Destination expects the file to be there for the Mapping of the source columns with destination ones.
My tasks are 1. Creating a table for the worksheet in Excel connection 2. Select from source table and write in Excel Destination
I can't find the answer to these problems. I'm using SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition. I have a report with 15,036 rows and about 15 columns. It utilizes a table and a report header and footer. One column has data containing hyperlinks to another report.
1) When I export this report to Excel, the result is 14.2MB file. Why is this file so huge, and how can I make it smaller?
2) Is there anything I can do to prevent the inclusion of the hyperlinks in the exported Excel file?
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.
Anyone know why cells within a matrix that are formatted as numeric export to Excel with a cell format proprty of "General"? Cells within a table however export with an appropriate format.

I have a table in one of my databases that stores files in one of its columns. I need to be able to export this BLOB column into either a CSV or Excel file. I am forbidden from using xp_Cmdshell so I was wondering if there was a way to do this in the Cmd prompt.
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.

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.
I have the Excel Connection Manager and Source to read the contents from an Excel file. For some reason couple of numeric fields from the Excel worksheet are brought over as nulls even though they have a value of 300 and 150. I am not sure why this is happening. I looked into the format of the fields and they are set to General in Excel, I tried setting them to numeric and that did not help.
All the other content from the excel file is coming thru except for the 2 numeric fields.
I tried to bring the contents from the excel source to a text file in csv format and for some reason the 2 numeric fields came out as blank.
Any inputs on getting this addressed will be much appreciated.

Hello All, I'm simply exporting data from SQL to Excel via the Export Data feature in SQL Management Studio.My problem is I have a column aliased as [ID #] and when it exports it changes the Pound Sign into a decimal -> ID .SPACE(25) As [ID#], It's not a major problem but does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks, Kyle
Hi there I know its possible to export data from a gridview to excel. I'm looking to export data directly from a stored procedure at the click of a button.Somebody suggested using the following:insert into OPENROWSET('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0', 'Excel 8.0;Database=C: esting.xls;', 'SELECT * FROM [SheetName$]') select * from table-nameWhen I tried executing the above lines of codes I got the following error message:"Ad hoc access to OLE DB provider 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0' has been denied. You must access this provider through a linked server." If anyone has any idea whats wrong ... plssssssssssssssssssss ... let me know .... Thanks in advance.
I have a job which produces a daily report and exports it to excel. However, instead of overwriting the contents of the file the data is being appended to the file. Any suggestions welcome.
I'm trying to export to excel using dts, but using a stored procedure where i have a query using temporary tables (#D,#T,#R) and the result is a table with a variable number of columns (sometimes 3 columns and sometimes 10 columns)
I want to run Stored procedure that is returning recordsets and is using cursors/ temporary tables (MS Sql 2000 Server). The output of this SP is to be used to prepare an excel Report.
It shows me the data in the Preview, but asks me to define transformations. Further on the transformations, it does not shows up the source columns (although they were populated in the preview)
When I perform the same task using DTS Export utility, i get the following error:
Error source: MS ole db provider for sql server Error Desc : Null Accessors are not supported by this provider context: error calling CreateAccessor. Your provider does not support all the interface/methods required by DTS
1. I created a spreadsheet named test.xls with the column headings from my temp table 2. Saved and closed this xls 3. Tried to run the following:
USE [PEI]; GO INSERT INTO OPENROWSET ('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0', 'Excel 8.0;Database=C:DELL est.xls;', 'SELECT * FROM [Sheet1$]') 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 a report when I run that report if the result is span for multiple page the table header is displaying for each page.When exported to PDf it is displaying the table header for each page.but when we export to Excel the table headers are not displaying.Any work around for this.
