I am trying to import an Excel file into SQL Server 2005 using the SSIS import/export wizard; however, Microsoft Excel doesn't show up in the list of the data sources. I am assuming that something else must be install from either Microsoft Office or SQL Server 2005. I am using Microsoft Office 2003 on a Window XP machine. Does anyone know what I need to do to correct this.
Thanks,
Tim
Hi All,
Do you have any idea why I am not getting any ODBC in import / export Data Source list???
I am trying to link connection with Informix Server through ODBC, same ODBC is working good with ACCESS.
I am using SQL Express 2005
Using Windows Authentication
Thanks for your help in advance

I have several versions of SQL Server and have been using SQL 2008 on a regular basis due to this issue. Our SQL 2014 when I do the Import Data process, it opens up the dialog window, hit next, and the data source is currently defaulting to ".NET Framework Data Provider for IBM i" - when it does this it immediately errors out with:
"An error occurred which the SQL Server Integration Services Wizard was not prepared to handle.
Additional Information:
> Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation (mscrolib)
>> Failed to find or load the registered .NET Framework Data Provider (System.Data)"
It immediately crashes/closes the Import/Export wizard with me unable to change the data source to what I need it to be.
My 2008 defaults to SQL Server Native Client 10.0 and does allow me to change to that same option (at which point it errors) but it does not close the wizard.
I need a way to either:
> Default the starting Data Source to be something else
> Fix whatever error is causing it to crash - I am at a loss as to what the error is looking for
> Not have the wizard crash whenever it defaults to this source.
Any of the above solutions would work fine - but at the moment I am unable to use the Import/Export wizard at all in SQL 2014.
Should I be able to use a SQL Server Compact Edition sdf file as the data source for the SSIS Import and Export Wizard?
When I select the .net Framework Provider for compact Edition from the data source drop down, I get a message box with "An error occured which the SSIS Wizard was not prepared to handle. Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. (mscorlib) Specified method is not supported. (System.Data.SqlServerCe)"
We have a user with a sdf file that will no longer sync, so we wanted to get her data from sdf file tables into SQL Server tables quickly and easily. Since the SSIS wizard wouldn't work with the sdf data source, we copied SQL Server Mgmt Studio query results into an Excel spreadsheet via the Clipboard, them imported those records with SSIS. But we need a repeatable process in case this happens in the future.
We tried to reinitialize her merge replication subscription with SQL Server Mgmt studio, and with C# code, but none of that would work.
How many MS data provider options are available for SQL Server compact edition? I see ".Net Framework Data Provider for Microsoft SQL Server Compact Edition" in the SSIS data source drop down, but shouldn't I also see an OLE-DB Provider for SQL Server Compact Edition?
This is all on my XP workstation where I can successfully write C# code for SQL Server Compact data access with Assembly = System.Data.SqlServerCe = C:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 8Common7IDEPublicAssembliesSystem.Data.SqlServerCe.dll. So I think I have the proper tools installed.
Thanks.
Running SQL 2008. Trying to copy data from one table into another table using SSIS Import/Export Wizard. Now, when I do a straight "Copy data from one or more tables or views", no problems. But when I use the "Write a query to specify the data to transfer", it will not let me get anywhere.
My source table has a field that is setup as "time". It has data, and no problems with the field. I even replicated my destination table structure exactly. But when I try to use the Import & Export wizard, for that one field I get an error stating the source field is unknown and it is labeled as "-1" instead of "time".
I found a couple of of workarounds. One is to cast the source field "time" as "datetime", and then end up with a "datetime2" field in the destination table. Works, but not what I want to store in that field. Second workaround is to use TSQL and use a "INSERT INTO...SELECT...FROM..WHERE.." statement. This works, and gives me the desired results with all data types being same in source and destination, but is a slight pain in the rear end.
I just want the Import & Export wizard to work. It should work. Why doesn't it know what "time" is? I even checked the MSSQLToSSIS10.XML mapping file the wizard is using. This is what it has for "time":
<dtm:DataTypeMapping >
<dtm:SourceDataType>
<dtm:DataTypeName>time</dtm:DataTypeName>
</dtm:SourceDataType>
<dtm:DestinationDataType>

I've installed SQL Express SP1 on a Windows 2003 server and I'm trying to get a new MySQL datasource to be recognized in the DTSWizard. A MySQL database needs to be moved over to a MS SQL server due to software requirements (which weren't looked at before the site was created). I've installed the ODBC Connector/MySQL software and created the System DSN (named "MySQL DB Import) in the Administrative Tools/Data Sources (ODBC) tool. When I start up the DTS wizard for SQL Express however, I do not get my new data source in the selection options for data sources. I am following the instructions on this page: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/sql/2000/deploy/mysql.mspx#ERJAE What am I missing?
View 2 Replies View RelatedHi All,
I have become frustrated and I am not finding the answers I expect.
Here's the gist, we support both Oracle and SQL for our product and we would like to migrate our Clients who are willing/requesting to go from Oracle to SQL. Seems easy enough.
So, I create a Database in SQL 2005, right click and select "Import Data", Source is Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle and I setup my connection. so far so good.
I create my Destination for SQL Native Client to the Database that I plan on importing into. Still good
Next, I select "Copy data from one or more tables or views". I move on to the next screen and select all of the Objects from a Schema. These are Tables that only relate to our application or in other words, nothing Oracle System wise.
When I get to the end it progresses to about 20% and then throws this error about 300 or so times:
Could not connect source component.
Warning 0x80202066: Source - AM_ALERTS [1]: Cannot retrieve the column code page info from the OLE DB provider. If the component supports the "DefaultCodePage" property, the code page from that property will be used. Change the value of the property if the current string code page values are incorrect. If the component does not support the property, the code page from the component's locale ID will be used.
So, I'm thinking "Alright, we can search on this error and I'm sure there's an easy fix." I do some checking and indeed find out that there is a property setting called "AlwaysUseDefaultCodePage" in the OLEDB Data Source Properties. Great! I go back and look at the connection in the Import and .... there's nothing with that property!
Back to the drawing board. I Create a new SSIS package and figure out quickly that the AlwaysUseDefaultCodePage is in there. I can transfter information from the Oracle Source Table to the SQL Server 2005 Destination Table, but it appears to be a one to one thing. Programming this, if I get it to work at all, will take me about 150 hours or so.
This make perfect sense if all you are doing is copying a few columns or maybe one or two objects, but I am talking about 600 + objects with upwards of 2 million rows of data in each!!
This generates 2 questions:
1. If the Import Data Wizard cannot handle this operation on the fly, then why can't the AlwaysUseDefaultCodePage property be shown as part of the connection
2. How do I create and SSIS Package that will copy all of the data from Oracle to SQL Server? The source tables have been created and have the same Schema and Object Names as the Source. I don't want to create a Data Flow Task 600 times.
Help!!!
Hi,
I have two environements:
1) Development (Full access to SQl Server 2005)
2) Hosting SQL Server 2005, ONLY accees to the database MYDatabase, NO access to master
I would like to copy a table from my development to hosting. I would like to have an exact replica of the table in hosting. I DO NOT want to copy the whole database, just a table. I was able to do this without problems in SQL 2000/Enetrprise Manager.
I have tried to copy the table using the new import/export data wizard. I did enabled Identity Insert option. There are few problems:
1) The drop table and recreate option (under Mappings) is disabled, I can not check it. IS THIS a BUG? I have latest SP 3 aplplied
2) When I just run it I get the following errors. Also the problem is that it runs in trunsaction, I was hoping it would skip the duplicate records and just copy the ones I need. Seems it is all or nothing, very common problem in Windows based systems (same problem in Explorer when copying files)
3) I was hoping that such a simple task as mirroring a table would be easly achieved, please help

I'm just beginning to use SSIS (bracing for a steep learning curve due to lack of helpful documentation) and am starting out trying use the Import and Export Wizard. On the "Choose a Data Source" page there is a dropdown for the Data Source. I see a list of possible data providers, but not one of "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC drivers," which is the one I wanted to use because I'm trying to connect to an obscure database. So I figured that I need to use ".Net Framework Data Provider for Odbc." Unfortunately, regardless of what I enter for the Connection string or the Dsn or the Driver I invariably get an error, although it's somewhat dependent on that I have entered for those three items.
Either this (when I type in a DSN)
Cannot get the supported data types from the database connection "Dsn=Terrascan_Okanogan_WA".
or this (if I enter a full connection string and a driver)
The operation could not be completed.
------------------------------
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
ERROR [IM002] [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified
of this (if I enter a DSN and a driver)
Cannot get the supported data types from the database connection "Dsn=Terrascan_Okanogan_WA;Driver={SmartWare Driver}".
------------------------------
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
Specified cast is not valid. (System.Data)
So I have a couple questions. First, why doesn't "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC drivers" appear in the list of data sources, and secondly, when using the ".Net Framework Data Provider for Odbc" data source what inputs are expected because whatever I'm doing doesn't seem to work?
I am trying to import data from SQL 2000 to SQL 2005
The Data schemas are the same in both (tables, relationships, key and triggers).
Using the wizard I am trying to import data from SQL 2000 to SQL 2005. The issue I face is to manage the Idenity columns. I do not want the identity values from the SQL 2000 DB which may be at say 5000, instead I want to use the identity values from the SQL 2005 database which will problably start at 1
Is there a way to do this, should I use a custom query instead of a direct table dump. If using a custom query do I need to just specify a Select query or does it have to be a specific "INSERT INTO Table ..." type query
If I do import the data directly with Identity "ON" how can I advance the identity column value to current +1 on the SQL 2005 table.
Thanks

Not seeing the Review Data Type Mapping Screen in SQL Server Import and Export Wizard?
Is there only a certain version where that screen shows up?
I am trying to import data from an MS Access application to SQL Server and all of the connections are good, but some of the data isn't and if I let it migrate using this tool it crashes on the bad data and there is no data that migrates. The Review Data Type Mapping screen will allow me to bypass the records in error and load the rest. however, I can;t do that if I cannot see the screen.
Where is a package visible when running the Data Import/Export wizard, choosing to save a package, and choosing "SQL Server" as the location? When I make an SSIS connection in Management Studio I do not see the package under the "MSDB" node.
View 4 Replies View RelatedAfter some weeks evaluating tools and platforms for developing an application, I decided to move to SQL Server 2005 Express Edition. Everything was fine till last night, when after creating my tables, I needed to populate them. I tried to find the Import and Export Data Wizard that SQL Server 7.0 and 2000 used to have, but great was my surprise when I found - in this forum - a post that said that it's not available in the Express Edition.
I'll have to move back in time (what I hate) to remember the way BCP worked. Can somebody post some examples to not start from zero ? Does anybody know a third party visual tool that can import/export data from text files to a SQL Server DB via ODBC ?
What's the reason it was not included in the EE ?
THanks !
Hi all,
I face a small problem in DTS, hope you can help me to solve this issue.
I designed a DTS package to import excel data ( with 4 column ) into SQL server database,The database design for the database table was
column name type length
ID bigint 8
CountedQty decimal 9
Location nvarchar 8
Other nvarchar 50
The DTS package is work and does not appear any error message. But the data in column 'Location' appeared <Null> after import into the database, this issue happen when the excel data was <numeric> value (string value in this data column can be accepted and appear nicely).
Izzit because nvarchar cannot accept numeric value, how can i solve this problem ?
Thank you very much.

View 7 Replies View Relatedhello ,
I want to download data from an AS/400 to a SQL 2005 Database.
Within Sql server 2000 it was possible to do more than 1 transformation with just 1 source connenction and 1 destination.
In SSIS I have created:
- new solution
- data source
- Data source viewer ( I made named queries to format the data as i want it to be in Sql)
Although it is possible to view the named query data it does not seem to be possible to import the data in the data viewer into my sql 2005 database. (For each dataflow I have to define each query again)
I have added the data source in the connection manager.
Also I am searching to import more than 1 file in 1 package !
I can use however a Dts-2000 package but why then use SQL server 2005
Hope somebody can help me

I am trying to simplify a query given to me by one of my collegues written using the query designer of Access. Looking at the query there seem to be some syntax differences, so to see if this was the case I thought I would import the database to my SQL Server Developer edition.
I tried to start the wizard from within SQL Server Management Studio Express as shown in one of the articles on MSDN which did not work, but the manual method also suggested did work.
Trouble is that it gets most of the way through the import until it spews forth the following error messages:
- Prepare for Execute (Error)

I have a very simple (but big) CSV file and I want to import it to my database in Microsoft SQL Server 2014 (Database/Tasks/Import Data). But I receive the following error:The conversion returned status value 2 and status text "The value could not be converted because of a potential loss of data".Here is a sample of my CSV file (containing ~ 9 million rows):

1393010,301242,'20150414 15:46:58'
Ideally my first and second columns are bigint and the third is datetime. In the wizard, I choose 'unsigned 8 byte integer' for first two and 'timestamp' for the third and I receive the error. Even I try to use string for all three columns as data type and still I receive the same error.I also tried using bcp command in command line. It errs nothing and inserts nothing! Also using "bulk insert" command errs me that: "the column is too long! verify your terminators", but they are correctly fixed!
Can anyone tell me how I can use the DTS Wizard to import over 100 excel files from my hard drive, over to my server called(MARKETING_DB)and loop back through to grab the next excel file until all the files have been imported?

Hi,
I'm using the DTS Import/Export Wizard for the first time. Does anyone have a "canned" script I can run instead of going through the step by step wizard process. I have a number of tables I have to copy from a prod to test environment.
Thanks,
Jeff
What happens if my DTS fails half way through? (For example due to a network error).
I guess what I'm really asking is: does DTS Wizard operate within a transaction which upon failure is rolled back, and on success is committed?
Thanks,
Richard.
Import Export Wizard creates a new SSIS package to the file system. With the help of that wizard can I add the data flow task to an existing package.

Hello,
I am having alot of problems with the import export wizard. I am trying to copy over around 315 tables to a new database. When the tables are copied over to the new database they are copied without any of the original constraints. Does anyone know why this could be happening? What I am trying to accomplish is a simple database transfer with the exception of about 10 to 15 tables from the original database. I do not understand why this is such a problem. I did not create a package, as this is going to be a one time shot.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,

In sql2k i can select bunch of tables in EM and export to a different db also I can schedule this activity.
How to do the same in SQL2K5?
Or is someone reading this a Wizard of Wizards. I need a 2nd flavor of import wizard. The one that I would clone out of the existing one would:
Use ASCII not UnicodeUse the copy column control not the Data ConversionThe size of all fields will be 255 not 50.The data type will be varchar.In my cloned wizard, the goal will be to just get the data loaded.
All other goals will be addressed by the user after the data is in the database.
Do I hear a volunteer?
Thanks,

SQL Server 7.0 has an Import/Export Wizard for insert/outputs to delimitefd files.

I have read your articles and I got one question about the SQL Server Import and Export Wizard in MS SQL 2005.
It seems that in some cases, the Wizard do not copy ID’s even if I select the “Enable identity insert”
One of these cases is when I have already run a script to create the database schema before I start the wizard.
If I don’t run a script to create database schema before I start the wizard, then I will not get the keys transferred to the new database.
Do you know why this can happen and if this is meant to be a feature in the MS SQL 2005 or is Microsoft using another way to copy databases with identities and keys in this version?
Hi everyone,
Plese help me out. I import one database from one server to another. This process able to copy all the tables and functions but it copied only few stored procedures.
so tell me how to copy or import remaining stored procedures?
