I need to create an application to import several text, excel and mdb files into SQL2005. I created a c# application to dynamically create a package & import text files but not able to do the same with excel and mdb files.
I guess i am not giving the right connections. Any help on this please........

Ther eis an excel file.
This file is open all the time so the excel sheets get populated by an external third party application real time.
So the data inside the spreadsheets are constantly changing. This spreadsheet is only capable of being updated with data when it is open.
And I would like to import this excel data on a certain interval into sql server 2005.
Tried using the import wizard but it seems the import does not work if the source i.e. the excel file is open.
Is there an alternative please?
Thanks
hi all,
how to import data from excel to sql server 2005 using asp.net 2.0 and c#
Ashok
Hi
I have to import data from a number of excel files to corresponding tables in SQL 2005. The excel files are created using excel 4.0. I have created an excel connection manager and provided it with the path of the excel sheet.Next i have added an excel source from the toolbox to the dataflow. I have set the connection manger, data access mode, and the name of the excel sheet (the wizard detects the sheet correctly) in the dialog window i get when i double click the excel source. Every thing goes fine till here. Now when i select the 'columns' in this dialog window or the preview button, i get this error
TITLE: Microsoft Visual Studio------------------------------Error at Data Flow Task [Excel Source [1]]: An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005.Error at Data Flow Task [Excel Source [1]]: Opening a rowset for "test4$" failed. Check that the object exists in the database.------------------------------ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:Exception from HRESULT: 0xC02020E8 (Microsoft.SqlServer.DTSPipelineWrap)------------------------------
Any ideas about why is this happening???

I have a simple code that uses a the file upload control to read an excel sheet and upload the data into a SQL 2005db.
I'm using Visual Web Developer and Sql's express edition to test it. It works fine when I test. However, when I push it up to the production server and try it via the any other pc it does not. The page loads fine. However, when it starts to upload it errors out.
Any reason why? I've never seen this happen.
Here's the code. Thanks in advance. Protected Sub BtnUpload2_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles BtnUpload2.Click
UploadTextDocument()
End Sub
Private Sub UploadTextDocument()
Dim location As String = FileUpload1.PostedFile.FileName.ToString
' Connection String to Excel Workbook
Try
Dim excelConnectionString As String = String.Format("Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source={0};Extended Properties=Excel 8.0", location)
' Create Connection to Excel Workbook
Using connection As Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection = New Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection(excelConnectionString)
Dim command As Data.OleDb.OleDbCommand = New Data.OleDb.OleDbCommand("Select BuilderID,SeriesID,OptionLevel,CommunityID,PhaseID,PlanID,ElevationID,OptionID,CurrentSalesPrice,LocalComments,Active,DateAdded,DateAvailable,DateInactive,SalesPriceEffective,SalesPriceExpires,PreviousSalesPrice,CutOffNotBefore,CutOffNotAfter FROM [Data$]", connection)
connection.Open()
' Create DbDataReader to Data Worksheet
Using dr As Data.Common.DbDataReader = command.ExecuteReader()
' SQL Server Connection String
Dim connectionString As String = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("HbAdminMaintenance").ConnectionString
' Bulk Copy to SQL Server
Using bulkCopy As SqlBulkCopy = New SqlBulkCopy(connectionString)
bulkCopy.DestinationTableName = "ExcelData"
bulkCopy.WriteToServer(dr)
End Using
End Using
connection.Close()
End Using
LBError.Text = "The spreadsheet was successfully uploaded."
Catch
LBError.Text = "There was an error. Check the spreadsheet for correct format."
End Try

View 2 Replies View RelatedI 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.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am trying to import an xlsx spreadsheet into a sql 2008 r2 database using the SSMS Import Wizard. When pointed to the spreadsheet ("choose a data source") the Import Wizard returns this error:
"The operation could not be completed" The Microsoft ACE.OLEDB.12.0 provider is not registered on the local machine (System.Data)
How can I address that issue? (e.g. Where is this provider and how do I install it?)
l've the following situation,
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.
Thanks.

p/s : The excel header is at the row 7.
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, I am trying to create a connection string that will connect to a SQL Server 2005 Registration on a remote machine. I have a SQL Server 2000 registration (installed) on the same machine and so I think there may be a conflict. The SQL 2005 registration is denoted as HARDYSQL5 and the 2000 registration is merely HARDY (the machine name). I need to connect to a database on the HARDYSQL5 registration but I am not connecting. I have tried various connection strings but none have worked. I get a Login failure. I think this is red herring because I doubt its even finding the database.I can connect to the 2000 db with:"Server=HARDY;Database=Perimeter;UID=use;pwd=example;" But its fails with the following, for example:"Server=HARDYSQL5;Database=Perimeter;UID=use;pwd=example;" "Server=HARDYSQL5;Database=HARDYSQL5Perimeter;UID=use;pwd=example;" "Server=HARDY;Database=SQL5Perimeter;UID=use;pwd=example;" I'm gon go nuts. What am I doing wrong? Thanks.
View 10 Replies View RelatedHi,I created a small application to upload small video files on my

or less.When I upload the same file locally,it works perfectly fine and
uploads quickly without hanging.Here's a link to sample of my web.config filehttp://www.bleusolutions.com/sampleconfig.txt Here's a link to the pagehttp://www.bleusolutions.com/foto/uploadvideo.aspxI believe that this may be a database issue. I am running my

change the web.config connection string to point to my local database
or to the remote database. When I point to my local database the application works fine as you can see: http://www.bleusolutions.com/images/localupload.jpgWhen

Hi all,
I have an aplication in VB6 that uses an ODBC to link to a SQL database.
Until today all my clientes had SQL Server2000 and my aplication worked fine.
Some of my cliente have now SQL 2005 and my application still woks fine except in one of them.
In this particular cliente it gives an error when the application tries to read/write a particular table and a particular column.
This column is data type BIT and my code is
...
Myrs("Servida")= true
...
Any idea why the error appens? And why only in a particular machine and not all of them with SQL2005?
What can I do? I changed the code for
myrs("servida")=abs(cint(true)) and solved the problem, but is not the way that I want to go. I do not want to change thousands of line of code where I read/write a column in the database data type BIT.
Is there a way to configure SQL Server 2005 the way that it controls data type BIT?
Regards
Luis

Hello, I am experiencing difficulty with the installation of sqlexpr_toolkit for sql server 2005 express. I have installed sql server 2005 express with advanced services. That has installed correctly. However, when I try to install the sqlexpr_toolkit with the feature 'Business Intelligence Studio' , the toolkit does not install; the toolkit does not show up in the program list in the"Add & Remove Programs" window. When I try to 'Change' the sql server 2005 in the "Add & Remove Programs" list and try to upgrade the feature components with the Business Intelligence feature, I get a error that states"cannot find devenv.exe." Both versions of setup files for sqlexpr_avd and sqlexpr_toolkit are the same. I previously had an earlier version of sql server 2005 express loaded but it was not the beta version. And I uninstalled the sql server apps, except I did not uninstall .NetFramework 2.0.
I have found some of the Business Inteligence files installed in the path: C:ProgramFilesMicrosoftVisualStudio8common7IDEPrivateAssemblies
I was wondering if I need to uninstall everything and start over. I also had previously installed Visual Web Developer Express and Visual Basic Express 2005 which are working okay. Do I need to obtain updates for these applications in order to get Business Intelligence Studio to install?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I really would llike to use the Business Intelligence Studio application.
