Importing Excel Into MS SQL Table
Sep 12, 2006
Hi.
I have done this successfully the last time but just couldn't get it to work this time round. Please help.
I was trying to import data from an Excel file into MS SQL table. NONE of the numeric or value fields (right justified) works because they shown <NULL> in MS SQL table after the import via DTS. Those string fields were able to import ok into the table. DTS didn't show any error message during the DTS run.
Any advise? Thank you.
Best regards

I am using the DTS wizard and having problems importing excel into an existing table.
Problem is that various column in excel are defined as double in the wizard but in my db table it is defined as an integer.
How do I get around this issue so the data types in excel can match up accordingly to my defined data type in my db table?
The wizard does a bad job of guessing the correct data type.
I have heard of using a staging table to import from excel and using that as my source to import into my existing table.

I hope this is the right forum for my question.
I'm developing a website for a Prepaid Calling Cards distributor. Each of the cards they sale have a list of the countries the card is good for. I need to import this data into my countries_rates table. The file they are giving me is an excel file that contain 3 colums (fields)
1- Country-Name
2- Rate
3- Card_$_Price
these files contain aproximaly 400 rows so it will be a hasle to have to insert it manually every week.
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.
I would like to know how do I do that with Visual Studio 2005, SLQ 2005 and C#
please direct me to some links where I can learn how to do this or please send me some code snips I can see how is done.

I am trying to import an Excel Spreadsheet into SQL2005. There is a column in the spreadsheet that has character values, and numbers. I have formatted the numbers as text on the spreadsheet. I have declared the column on the table as char/varchar/nchar, but whatever I do, the numbers don't get imported into the table, but show up as nulls. Any idea why?
Thanks

Hi guys,
I wanted to know if there was a way to import multiple sheets from one excel file into one sql table in one go.
I have an excel file which has 15 sheets and want to import them into one table in one process rather than having to create 15 table and then joining into one table.
I am using Sql Server 2005(enterprise edition) v9 SP2.
Thanks

Hi,
I need to import an SQL string from MS Excel 2003 to SQL SERVER 2000.
The string I need to import is composed by 5 different several blocks and looks like:
Code Snippet
CommandLine01 = "USE mydb"
CommandLine02 = "SELECT Block ..."
CommandLine03 = "GO
ALTER TABLE Block...
GO"
CommandLine04 = "UPDATE Block..."
CommandLine05 = "SELECT Block..."
The detail of the SQL string is at:

I am trying to implement OJ's suggestion:
http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=2117223&SiteID=1
to use multi - batch processing to import the string to SQL SERVER, something like:

'set the properties and open a connection
cmd1="use my_db"
cmd2="create table mytb"
cmd3="insert into mytb"
SqlCnt.execute cmd1
SqlCnt.Execute cmd2
SqlCnt.Execute cmd3
Below is the code (just partial) I have, and I need help to complete it.
Thanks in advance,

Is there any way at all to import from Excel to MS SQL without using the DTS package and without doing it manually? I really do not like the lack of flexability that DTS has and I need something else that will always work. Basically I am importing shipping documents that are in excel and putting them into a table. This has 2 issues, 1 I don't know the file name, just the folder it is in and 2 there is a large amount of header data in the file, some of which I need, some of which I don't. Is there any solutions out there? Thanks!

I need to copy the data in two spreadsheets into two
tables in "SQL Server 2000". Below are the details:
One spreadsheet contains the data that needs to be added
to an existing table in SQL server. All field names in the
spreadsheet match the DB table column names.
Another spreadsheet contains the data that needs to be
copied to a new DB table. The table currently does NOT
exist in the DB.
I'm not sure how to accomplish this. ANy help would be

Here is the scenario: I have an excel spreadsheet that contains 182 columns, and I need to move this data into a semi-normalized database for reporting. The SQL Server database schema has 11 tables. Some of the tables are going to use identity columns for their PK, other tables are using a value that comes from this spreadsheet for their PK values.Anyway, I have never done a DTS package of any significance before, and know I most likely need to write some VBScript to handle sticking data into the proper data tables, etc.I am just hoping someone can point me at a good resource, give me an alternative means of doing this (this is a process that will need to happen whenever a new Excel spreadsheet is dropped into a folder or on a schedule, either one). I would love to write some C# code to handle these things, but a DTS package would probably be the best, I just don't know where to start.Thanks,

I have an excel document that I need to import into a table. The format of the Excel spreadsheet has three columns:
|First Name | Last Name | Zip code|
This data is not normalized. I want to convert the data in the spreadsheet to foreign key values for two existing tables.
The table I'm importing to will contain records with a many-to-many relationship.
For example,
|John|Smith|77079
imports as:
|1|1|
Where "Smith" is the first record in the 'rep' table and "77079" is the first record in the 'zip' table.
How can I bring the data in and then convert the de-normalized data into ID values from my existing tables?
I have thousands of records that I need to do this for and want to automate the process.
Thanks for any help.
Regards,

What do others do if you need to import excel files into SQL Server?My main problems are1) zipcode formatting issues. If the column is a mix of zip and zip+4,I have problems retrieving all zipcodes.2) If the last column contains NULL no information is imported.All this with using the Management console using Import data in SQLServer 2005. I am simply trying to import the data into NEW databases.The excel files vary in structure. Right now I am working on case bycase basis.Does anyone see these types of problems?What I am doing now is converting the excel file to a tab delimitedfile and that seems to work.TIA.
