Please help me is their procedure available to use for multiple Excel files load into SQL Server table.
I found one on google, but not working as expected:
Msg 111, Level 15, State 1, Procedure usp_ImportMultipleFiles, Line 11 [Batch Start Line 40]
'CREATE/ALTER PROCEDURE' must be the first statement in a query batch.
Msg 137, Level 15, State 2, Line 67
Must declare the scalar variable "#filepath".

Answer 1

I see two errors here:
'CREATE/ALTER PROCEDURE' must be the first statement in a query batch.
Must declare the scalar variable "#filepath".
Get a very simple script to work, and then build on that. Can you try it like this?
insert into test.dbo.Categories
SELECT * FROM OPENROWSET('Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0','Excel 12.0;
Database=C:\Users\Excel\Desktop\Book1.xls;
HDR=yes','Select * from [Sheet1$]')
