SSIS Changing Excel Tabs Dynamically

Mar 25, 2008



In my SSIS package I have a loop container that I am running the same code against 4 servers.
I have the package export the SQL data to an Excel spreadsheet that has multiple tabs.

Is there a way I can change the tab on the fly or do I need to create a Connection for the same spreadsheet 4 times
Each Connection pointing to a different tab?

I tried to set up a expression for the Excel Connection Manager to use the InitialCatalog for the tab and change it
based on the script in the loop however this causes the following error:


An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E21. An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft Native Client" Hresult: 0x80040E21 Description: "Multiple-step OLE DB operation generated errors. Check each OLE DB status value, if available. No work was done.".
Cannot create an OLE DB accessor. Verify that the column metadata is valid.

Thanks in advance

Export Sql Server Data To Excel Dynamically In SSIS

May 23, 2008



Hi All..

I have an issue where I'm trying to export data from Sql Server tables (or from a result set in a SP or view) into Excel Spreadsheets. Normally I would use a simple data flow to do this. However, I need to do this on-the-fly because the schema of the Sql data is not static. The table could be a different one or the result set would have column schema that is not always the same.

The constant in all of this is that the spreadsheet columns and the table (or result set) column schema is identical. It's just that the column count and column names are not defined at design time, but would need to be defined at runtime.

Going from Excel to Sql Server is simple as I used a Script Task and the SQLBulkCopy class to dynamically transfer the data. However, BOL says that it's only one way (Data to Sql Server). Basically I need the to go the opposite direction now.

I have all of the information (SQL Table server, database, schema, and name and the Excel file path and name) already set up in variables and running through a ForEach container and I can dynamically change the variable information. I just need to figure out how to dynamically map the columns, create the spreadsheet file, and load the data into the spreadsheet. I'm sure this has been tossed around before. If someone could point me in the right direction I would most grateful.

Thanks.

Lee.

Excel Files, Multiple Tabs

May 8, 2008

I know from experience that the Excel connection mechanisms are somewhat limited. I was wondering if anyone has come across a solution to this problem.

We receive an excel file from a business line. Basically a list of account mods for a given month. Due to the tabular nature of Excel, sometimes the amount of mods exceeds the limits of one tab and has to roll over into a second tab. The names of the tabs reflect the file creation date, which often is the last day of the month, but not always. Here is a question related to this-

Is there a way to "query" a the list of tabs in an Excel file, so that I could store that record set in an SSIS variable, use it to loop through all the tabs? If no, can you think of a way to somehow get the value of the tab name or names so that I can use it to dynamically set the OpenRowset value of the Excel Data Source?

Thanks for your help, everyone!

Integration Services :: New 2014 Install Can't See Tabs In Excel

Oct 20, 2015

I have two local boxes.  On one I have ssis 2008 r2, the other a new install of 2014 enterprise.  I have an excel file that both machines can open (ext .xlsx) with 64 bit excel 2010 on the same share location.On my 2008 r2 installation, when I create a dft then go thru adding an excel source and let ssis create a conn mgr, ssis can see the one and only tab in the source's "name of excel sheet" drop down.On my 2014 installation, I see a message "no tables or views could be loaded" in the drop down after going thru the same steps. I don't know if it matters in 2014 but I set 32 bit mode on both.Am I missing some sort of addin on my ssis 2014 install?  I cant say for certain what version of excel created this file.

Rename Tabs In Excel File Created By SSRS

Nov 13, 2007



I love SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS), but it doesnt let me name the tabs when exporting to Excel. The feature is well documented as not being available.

So I figured I can use the cell(1,1) on each tab to contain the tab name, and have an SSIS job poll a file share, open the file, read the cell, rename tabs, rename the file, and then email out the file. Polling the directory and emailing is a piece of cake, but I can't find any way to rename a tab without having Excel loaded on the SERVER. Not to mention instantiating an entire instance of Excel on the SERVER every time I want to do this.

I want to leverage SSRS, and preserve the formatting of the excel file, which is why I don't just dump the data in with SSIS to begin with.

Anybody have any ideas?

Reporting Services :: 2014 Enterprise - Multiple Tabs When Saving To Excel?

Oct 28, 2015

We are running 2014 enterprise.  Our users love to see related report sections saved in separate tabs of the same spreadsheet.  Is there a way to control how ssrs will save a report to excel when it comes  to tabs?  

Are subreports a/the way (and only way) to do this? 

By sections I mean they might have a grid, then another grid, then a graph then another graph and so on. 

What property controls the tab name?  What if they want to combine 2 or more sections into one tab?

Dynamically Changing Column Headings

Feb 5, 2008

We have a query in which we have data in fields called TS1Min, TS1Max, TS1Avg, TS2Min, TS2Max, TS2Avg etc.

We have a different table in which we define that vale of TS1, TS2, as an example TS1 might equal RED, TS2 might equal BLUE.

We have written a query that puts TS1Min, TS1Max, TS1Avg, TS2Min, TS2Max, TS2Avg in a temp table #TEMPA

and we also put the values of RED and BLUE in another temp table #TEMPB

now we want to select * from #TEMPA but rename the headings TS1Min to display RED-TS1Min, TS1Max as RED-TS1Max, TS1Avg as RED-TS1Avg etc...

any ideas on how to do this

Dynamically Changing The Length Of A Varchar(n) Field

Dec 26, 2006

Hi Everyone,I have a question about dynamically changing the length of a varchar(n)field, in case the value I'm trying to insert is too big and will givea "truncated" error, but before the error is given! i.e. Is there somekind of a way to "test" the length of the field while Inserting thevalue into it, and to have it automatically increase its length to thelength of the value being inserted, in case the value is too big?I've been able to do this in a "primitive" way, simply by identifyingthe specific error number in case the value is being truncated, andthen increasing the length of the varchar(n) field by using the ALTERcommand, and then duplicating the insert statement, but is there astandard (shorter) way of doing this?Here is my code (I'm working in an ASP environment):<%var_txt = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz12345678789"sql = "Insert Into Table1 (text) Values ('" & var_txt & "')"On Error Resume Nextconn.Execute sqlIf err = -2147217833 ThenResponse.Write "Error Recognized Successfully!<br /><br />"sql = "ALTER TABLE Table1 ALTER COLUMN text VARCHAR(" &Len(var_txt) &") NOT NULL"On Error Resume Nextconn.Execute sqlIf err<>0 ThenResponse.Write "Error while trying to alter Column:<br/>" & err & "= " & err.description & "<br />"ElseResponse.Write "Column altered successfully to: " &Len(var_txt) &"<br />"sql = "Insert Into Table1 (text) Values ('" & var_txt &"')"On Error Resume Nextconn.Execute sqlIf err<>0 ThenResponse.Write "<br />Error number 2:<br />" &err.description &"<br />"ElseResponse.Write "Now it was added successfully!HaHa!<br />"End IfEnd IfElseResponse.Write "Success."End If%>Thanks in advance!

Dynamically Changing Configuration File Path

Apr 30, 2008

Before I launch into a long description of the issue, I was wondering whether its possible to dynamically amend the file path held in a configuration string? (I'm looking at the Package Configurations Organizer)

Basically recreating the /CONF switch in the dtexec utility

So a parent package could somehow tell a child package to pull its configuration from a selection of different xml config files at run time... I couldn't see a variable in the child package to set from the former

My only idea at the moment is to replace the Execute Package Task with an Execute Process Task, and directly invoke the child using dtexec & an expression to dynamically set the /CONF switch..

thanks

Dynamically Changing SQL ConnectionString For Live/test Environments

Sep 11, 2007

Hello. What I'm trying to do should be fairly simple, but after an hour of searching and trials, I can't seem to get it working.When I run my website on my test machine, I would like it to use a certain value for my connectionString. But when it's run on the live server, it should use a different connection string. This way, when it's on the test server it'll use the test database.In my Web.Config file, I have this:<connectionStrings>        <add name="myConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source=TEST_DB;Initial Catalog=tester;Integrated Security=True"            providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" /></connectionStrings>I would like to be able to change the connectionString in something like the Global.asax file, when the application is loaded. I'd check for a certain environment variable, or some other condition, and change the value of the connectionString.I tried this in my Global.asax, but it told me the value was read_only: ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["myConnectionString"].ConnectionString = "Data Source=LIVE_DB;Initial Catalog=live;Integrated Security=True" Does anyone have a good way of doing this, so I don't need to juggle Web.Config files when I publish my site? Thanks.

Dynamically Changing Task Name Displayed Within ForEach Loop Container

Oct 27, 2006

Does anyone know how to change the task name displayed within a ForEach Loop Container (or of the ForEach Loop Container task itself) based on a variable. I am pretty familiar with setting variable values during task execution and using expressions to alter task properties based on variables. I have tried using an expression to alter the value of the Name property of the ForEach Loop Container but the name of the ForEach Loop Container does not change during execution. Since the color of the various tasks change during execution, I would think that the task names could be changed as well.

Export Procedure Results To Excel Dynamically

May 16, 2007

Hi,

I am trying to create a DTS package that uses a sql stored procedure to generate a set of results and export those results to an excel spreadsheet on a server.

The trick is that the stored procedure accepts a parameter for Bank_Number (there are 10 of them). Therefore i was wondering if there was a way to somehow create the package to run the stored proc 10 times, each with a different bank number as the parameter and generate 10 different excel spreadsheets, one for each bank with it's results.

Can this be done using DTS or do i have to try another method?

thanks

How To Dynamically Generate Excel Files For The SQL Query Input?

May 22, 2008

Hi,

There is one manual process done by my friend. The process is " In query analyser, she runs a sql query and the resultset of Sql query, she copies and pastes into a excel workbook".

I wanted to write a SSIS package to automate it and providing a UI, in which she can give connection details and paste the SQL query and the package will in turn generate excel workbook in the target path". I thought of trying ExecuteSQL task, but the output resultset of ExecuteSQL task cannot be mapped dynamically to excel source(correct me if I am wrong). If I use Dataflow task, then also whether dynamic mapping of SQL output to Excel destination input is possible?

Can you please tell me the best approach for achieving the above functionality?

Thanks,
Venkataraman R
