Importing Excel 2007 And/ Or DBF Files Into SQl Server 2005

May 12, 2007

Greetings,

I'm having a tough time importing some of my legacy database into sql.
I have a number of dbase (IV) files I need to get into SQL. I have tried building a SSIS package with either an foxpro oledb connection or a jet 4.0 one, none of them work bec. of inconsistencies in the data format in my tables (e.g. date fields, etc).

I have tried to save the .dbfs as excel 2007 files, taking advantage of the larger space that comes with '07. Problem is you can't use the import/export wizard with 2007 for some reason and I haven't been able to create a package with the access 12 oledb as I have read.

I have to get some crucial data out of that old system and into the new one and I can't seem to be able to import them properly.

Any hints on what I should do ? (maybe I'm doing something awfully wrong)

Thank you for taking the time to answer my question,
Val

Importing Excel 2007

May 15, 2008



When importing an .xlsx file the number of columns stops at 255. Does anybody know how to get all columns imported?

Tried saving the file as text and that allows me to import all the columns but it would be much easier to do this directly from Excel.

Thanks

Excel 2007 DataMining Add-in Database On SQL Server 2005 Destroyed By Using SQL Server Managment Studio?

Apr 26, 2007

Hello,



i have made some Data Mining Model Examples in Excel 2007 (not temporarily!). They where there after leaving an re-opening Excel. I have used them several times. Then I want to look, if I can see them also via SQL Server Managment Studio in the Analysis Services. There where nothing in the DMAddInDB in Analysis Services.

And after this, in Excel my DataMining Models have disappeared and all Models i have made since this disappeared also.



Perhaps I have destroyed the database. But will this happen every time? Can I share Data Mining Models I have made with Excel with Projects in SQL Server Analysis Services?



Thanks

Importing From Excel To Sql Server 2005

Jun 23, 2007

I have about 50 Excel files from which I have to import data with some transformations to Sql Server. My first approach was to use Excel Source component in a data flow to read the data . However, as it turned out column X in some files was being converted to a DT_NTEXT blob and in other files it was mapped to WSTR. The reason I guess is because column X contained string of varying sizes - some greater than 255 characters while others less than 255 ( max was 3000 ) . My package used a ForEach loop to iterate over all the Excel files in a directory and feed that to the data flow task. I played around with IMEX and TypeGuessRows setting but they didnt help me . In my second approach I used 2 Excel sources ; one set up for the blob type and the other for the string type . I joined them together using a precedence contraint. This worked but I then figured out that there were 2 other columns in my data that exhibited the same behavior. I couldnt continue with the mulitple Excel source approach cause I would then have 8 Excel source components. Finally, I played around with Execute SQL Task . I selected the columns X,Y and Z , initialized 3 variables of type Object , used a ForEach to enumerate over the dataset and feed that to a script component that converted the objects to Strings. This seems to work for all types of data in the mulitple columns.



My question - has anyone encountered such problem ? What was the solution ? Just thought I would share this with the rest of the community. I cant seem to recall what the exact error I was getting ..but it was something like "cant convert long data to string " or something . I also keep getting annoying error icons in my Excel Source components used in the foreach loop. Something to do with acquire connection failed even after I set DelayValidation to "true".





Thanks

Importing Multiple Excel Files

Oct 27, 2006

I have a client who is sending me 800+ excel files each month with sales data. Each of the files is identical in structure, but has sales data for different stores. I receive all these files at the same time.

Is there a method with Data Transformation Services where I can have it work off of all the files in a given directory. I can set up DTS to work off of specific Excel files with no problem, but what I would like to do is set up a DTS so it could pull from each of the 800+ files.

Is this possible, or do I need to look at a solution outside of SQL to consolidate the Excel files first?

The Excel file would have columns similar to the following: store_id, zip_code, sales, transactions.

Importing From Excel To SQL Server 2005 Express

Jan 18, 2006

I'm trying to import a database. It seems my most likely route is via Excel, so I've moved my tables in there.

Then I tried setting up Excel as a linked server as described in http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q321686

My linked server gets created apparently with no errors, but I can't see any contents when I click on it in the object explorer.

Anyone with more clues than me?

thanks

Importing Excel Data Into SQL Server 2005 With A Twist!

Jun 11, 2007

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.

Please help me.

Integration Services :: Importing From Complicated Excel Files

Jun 3, 2015

I have several regular reports that are produced by different offices that I need to import the data from.  The challenge lies in the fact that the reports are not simply columns of data.  Some cells are labels, others contain data, and some contain both.  Also, the formatting of the reports isn't strictly uniform from office to office.  Is it possible to read this kind of sheet?  Excel data sources seem to just define everything in a column as data, and that doesn't work for me.  Is there an alternative, or perhaps a more manual way of defining what cells contain data?

Importing From Excel Into SQL Server 2005 Changing Values To NULL

Mar 9, 2007

I can't figure this one out...

I have an Excel spreadsheet (Excel 2003 format) with a column of values. The column is formated to General (although I've tried it formated to text). The values are alphanumeric. However, there are a few values that are completely numeric.

Example:

_ITEMNUMBER_

1-528

K214-5

184PR

45678

As can be seen, the last value is completely numeric. I am importing into a table with one column that is formated as nvarchar(50).

I use dtswizard.exe and do a simple import into the table and the alphanumeric values import just fine but anytime a value is completely numeric it has a NULL value in the table instead of the value that should be there.

I've tried changing the format of the column to nchar, char, etc, etc. Always comes in NULL.

Any ideas?

Using SSIS To Export Data From SQL 2005 To Excel 2007

Apr 3, 2008

Hello,

I made a package in SSIS to copy some data from SQL server 2005 SP2 to Excel 2007. The package works fine, but generate errors. If I replace the OLE DB destination for Excel 2007 with a Excel destination for Excel 2003 then they errors don't appear. The problem is that I have to use Excel 2007 because the data contains more than 65000 records. I thought maybe it was to much date, but if I limit the amount of data with top 100 it also generate errors.

The errors are:

SSIS package "Package.dtsx" starting.

Problem With Forecasting With Excel 2007 DM Add-in Using Drill-through Data From SSAS 2005!

Sep 18, 2007


I€™m having a problem with Excel 2007 DM and SQL 2005 and I hope someone out there has a solution.

Consider the following environment:

Windows XP SP2 or Windows Vista, Excel 2007, Data Mining Add-in, SSAS 2005 (with session mining models enabled, an AdventureWorksDW cube deployed and drill-through actions available).

Now take the following steps:

1. In Excel 2007 set up a connection to SSAS

2. Connect to the cube and create a new pivot table report (drag and drop whatever you like)

3. Right-click on one of the cell values in the data region and either select a drill-through action, or, select Show Details in the context menu

4. Ensure that you have at least 10 detailed records that are generated on a new worksheet page; you should have a time-based column in your detailed records

5. Select the table of detailed data, then select the Analyze tab (within the Table Tools grouping) which appears in the topmost menu above the ribbon

6. Click the Forecast button in the ribbon and choose both the field which you want to predict as well as the time-based column (from step 4) as well as the number of time periods to forecast

7. Finally click OK.

1. Having followed these steps on both WinXP SP2 and Vista, I keep coming across the exception: HResult:0x800A03EC. Any ideas as to why this exception pops up? If I was using a normal table of data (which was not generated from a Show Details or drill-through action), then the Forecast button works fine.

I googled it and thought the localization settings for SSAS 2005 and Excel 2007 needed to be the same (initially they weren€™t). I€™ve tried removing the auto-filters which appear atop each column in the detailed data table prior to clicking the Forecast button, and, I€™ve also tested for a series of data across a number of time periods with the same result.

Also, a colleague of mine discovered that the column headers that appear by default from a drill-through start with "$[", and, in removing them the Forecast function appears to work.

I would have thought there would be a seamless transition in Excel 2007 between data retrieved from a cube and the DM Add-in featueres (or at the very least, a more meaningful exception message than the one presented).

Is there something I€™ve missed, or, is there a KB article I haven€™t come across yet? As I know for a fact that the problem is reproducible, is there a fix to this problem on its way to us? Is there a useful workaround that doesn't require manual intervention?

Thanks,
A.

In my web application I need to create a form where the user will select the card from a dropdownlist and then find the excel file to be imported for that card.

Problem Importing Multiple Flat Files Into SQL Sevrer (2005) Using SSIS

Mar 3, 2008

Hi,

I'm just learning SSIS. As I was following the tutorial on foreach loop container (lesson 2) to export multiple flat files in creating a simple ETL package in SSIS, I get the following error:

SSIS package "Take17.dtsx" starting.

This occurs when the number of errors reaches the number specified in MaximumErrorCount. Change the MaximumErrorCount or fix the errors.
SSIS package "Take17.dtsx" finished: Failure.

I spent some time in understanding where could be the error. I traced it to the following place. If you take a look at the Lesson#2 in creating a simple ETL package in SSIS, using foreach loop container to import files into SQL server, as soon as I finish going through steps in configuring the file connection manager to use the variable for connectionstring, it immediately disappears. I repeated the tutorial three times exactly as I pointed out and when I reach to this step of configuring file connection manager for connectionstring, it takes the path and when I start debugging it, I get this error. When I go and check if everything is Ok, the connectionstring value is empty.

Why the value in connectionstring disappears?

Thank you.

Importing Csv Files To SQL Server Express

Nov 22, 2007

Hello,

I receive 4 .csv file downloads periodically (3 times per day) via email from our corporate database. I open each file in Excel, save as excel files, import to Access, replace the previous tables...run action queries, generate reports combined with production data from CSRs and supervisors. ALL DONE MANUALLY!!!

Here's where I am now:
-I've recently switched over to SQL Server Express.
-Used SSMA to bring tables over from previous Access database.
-Exercised the option to LINK these tables to the original Access database.(I'll explain why in a moment)
-Created ADPs for front end data entry use.
-Imported old Access database forms into the new ADPs previously used in Access.
-Connected to the new Server Express.
-I've eliminated my concurrent user problems by doing this.
HOWEVER, I am still bound to using old Access/Jet database to generate reports based on periodic downloads from corporate .csv files.

Here's the question:
What is the best way to import the csv files being sent to me via email into SQL Server Express? I've tried DTS. Seems to me you can't save AND actually use the packages later since it's the Express edition..... Importing manually 4 files, 3 times per day is a very tedious option I'd like to avoid. Any ideas?
Oh, by the way. Corporate has told me they would be willing to post the files to an FTP site instead of emailing the files. That's about as much help as I'm going to get from them. Can SQL Server Express be set up to run stored procedures (triggers) on a hot folder?
Thanks for your help.

Importing Binary Files Into Sql Server Database

Sep 26, 2005

I work for a company that makes heat transfers for the imprinted apparel market. We're developing a database of merchandise images for all of our non-design inventory. Using Access we're going to be inserting thumbnails of psd (photoshop) files. We're wondering if there is any way to import multiple psd's into the sql server database into matching records like matching a column named "filename" and the actual filename of the file without having to upload each file individually. We want to be able to dump the files from the database of the matching records, also. This way, once our catalog designer has found which designs they need to put into the new catalog, it will dump the psd's for us. The same for our staffer who does color separations.

Any suggestions out there? If you need me to post further of what we're trying here, I will. This is for the bossman.
