SQL Server import and export wizard - change concurrent setting - sql-server

I am trying to export several (~40) tables using the SQL Server import and export wizard (Right click database -> Task -> Export Wizard).
The wizard allows me to export all tables from database, 1 by 1, without error.
However, when I want to export all tables together, there is an error. I guess it is due to a concurrency issue (because the screen shows 2 tables are exporting together).
Can I change concurrency settings of the wizard? (set maxconcurrentexecutables to 1 in SQL Server). Or, do I need to use SSIS?
The error message is below:
Pre-execute (Error) Messages Error 0xc0202009: Data Flow Task 2: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error
code: 0x80040E37. (SQL Server Import and Export Wizard)

SSMS can't open data file

Im trying to import a .csv file in SQL Server Management Studio using the import export wizard.
I just created a database and when I used the wizard I ran into several errors. This is the error log.

I don't have the file open with any other programs so i'm unsure why it even said it was being used by another program.
any way to fix this?

SQL Server import data

When I'm trying to import data from a flat file (text file) to SQL Server, I get some errors:

Help please
When using variable names you can set the setting delay validation to true. That will solve one of your issues. If you could tell us more about what localeid1 is, perhaps we could help you further?

mssql exporting stops in validating step

It seems like there is an error in Validating step.
I am assuming that your Bookid is an AutoIncrement field and you are trying to populate data into that table from another source. You have to use Enable Identity Insert in your mapping to allow the Bookid to be updated.
Also, be sure that your seed is above the last value you inserted in the data exchange or you could run into errors down the road because you turned off safety checks when you overrode the Identity Insert behavior.

How do I copy all tables in database to Excel

I have a SQL Server 2008 database and I wanted to quickly copy all the data in the database into either separate Excel spreadsheets or into a single spreadsheet in separate tabs. Putting the data into separate CSV files is also ok. How do I do this without having to do a select * from for each of the tables and then copying the data into Excel? There are a lot of tables.
EDIT
Running the wizard to export data I get this error on Pre-execute
Pre-execute (Error)

Using Server Management Studio:
Server Management Studio (right click on db) >
Tasks >
Export >
Login >
Destination box select Microsoft Excel > ...
If you are on a 64-bit server then;

MS Sql Server [your version] >
USE Import and Export Data (32-bit)

Using the SQL Server Import and Export Wizard, you can easily copy tables from the database to the spreadsheet.
You can directrly export table from database to excel file using sql-server Import and Export Wizard.
Have look at this article about Exporting SQL Server Data to Excel.
Ok, see this link http://www.hotscripts.com/forums/windows-net-programming/59962-export-data-database-excel-via-sql-command-customize-style-vb-net-without-auto.html for a quick way of doing it.
Ideally, if you get time to program it, I would use RDLC to build custom reports which you can export out as Excel using DataTables.
See my blog post at https://mashupweb.wordpress.com/2012/02/08/creating-an-online-list-of-users-in-a-database-using-report-wizard/ on how export data onto Excel using RDLC.

Failed importing file in SQL Server Managment studio

In SQL Server Management Studio I exported a table from one database to an .xslx file, then imported it to another database on a different server. It failed to import and gave the following details:

My best guess is that QuestionID is an auto-incrementing identity field. In order to insert values into that column you'll need to specify.
SET IDENTITY_INSERT YourTable ON
Your other option if that field is an auto-increment identity is leave it out of the import/export and let the sql engine generate keys like it would for any other insert.
Without having the schema of your table in front of me a guess is as good as I can offer.
If you update your question with the structure of the table your trying to insert that might give other clues. For example, if QuestionID is a guid or something.
