I recommend you using NPOI to do the excel stuff. it's light-weight, and can do all the data inserting and formatting as you expected.

I have data in excel file and I need to convert the excel file to CSV file then insert these data into sql table.
Please, how can I do it ?
Do have any solution for this problem ?
You can easily do that with the SQL Spreads Excel Add-In. It allows you to use Excel to update and manage the data in any SQL Server table.
You can download a trial here.

Is it possible to link an Excel sheet to a SQL Server database? I want to be able to join the Excel columns to the tables in SQL Server and run queries. I can find plenty of examples to link the tables from SQL Server to Excel, but I want the other way around.
Thank you in advance for any suggestions.
Use SQL Server Import and Export Wizard.
Set your worksheet as a Data Source
Excel file path
Specify the path and file name for the spreadsheet
from which to import the data. For example, C:\MyData.xlsx or
\Sales\Database\Northwind.xlsx. Or, click Browse.
Browse
Locate the spreadsheet by using the Open dialog box.
Excel version Select the version of Excel that is used by the source
workbook.
I have two different issues
1). I am trying to export data to excel from SQL Server database. The package will create a new excel file each day and insert the data from database to excel.
I want the column name to also be updated in the excel file. One way is to use a template and insert data into it. I don't want to use any kind of template as I want to create a new excel file daily. Is there any other method available ????
2). I am trying to export data from server to excel. DATATYPE in server database is numeric. I am using a data conversion and changing to unicode string and then inserting it to excel.
value in server database= 0.000
value exported to excel= .000
help me fix it. I need 0.000 to be exported to excel
1) Yes, instead of a dataflow you can use a Script task to create the Excel file and write the data to it, and that will allow you to dynamically name the columns.
2) It is not that SSIS is exporting that value to Excel. That's just the way Excel is displaying the data.
I have an SSRS report that exports to Excel in xlsx format. I'm trying to then use SSIS to export a large dataset as a new tab to that report, but when I try to use the SSRS exported xlsx file as an Excel Destination in SSIS I get a bunch of errors and it won't recognize the source.
But, if i open the xlsx file exported from SSRS and manually save it again as xlsx, then it will work.
Any idea why this is happening? Is it not possible to use an SSRS exported xlsx file as an Excel Destination in SSIS?
Thanks.
I faced the same issue after using a SSRS-exported excel file as Excel Source in SSIS. It seems SSRS encode the file and include several SSRS specific characters that Excel doesn't interpret and aren't visible from Excel.
You can export the report as a plain text file then use a Flat file connection to flow the data.
Let me know if this helps you.
First I will explain what is my requirement and then I will explain what I have done so far and what are all the helps I need...
I have to export data from sql server to excel sheet. The excel sheet will be like a standard template. If I run my project, the data from SQL Server should be inserted into a new excel file which should use that template and it should be created and saved into a new location. Also, generally we will use first row as header. But in my requirement, the template will have two or three rows header. So, the data should be inserted automatically from the third/fourth empty row.
I have done exporting data from sql server database to normal excel sheet with first row as header. I have also done exporting data from different tables into different sheets of the same excel file.
Any body please help out for the template format, creation of new excel file while running project and two or three rows as header.
I am using SQL Server 2005 and Visual Studio 2005.
Please help out...Thanks in advance...
If your export is to Excel 2007 or 2010 can you use EPPLUS to handle the Excel-files.
You can solve this using SSRS.
Create your report how it has to look like.
Then deploy it on a reporting server web.
Then create a subscription where you export the report to a excel file. You can setup location and time it has to run.
THe report can look like however you need it.
