SQL Server Import and Export Wizard Issue

i am trying to export SQL data into excel to send out weekly reports.  I have created a view and a SQL account has access to this view; however, I am unable to successfully export the data.  In preview I see all of the data yet it fails on the
Pre-execute with the below.  It creates the excel file with just the header.  I am using SQL 2014 and loaded the 64 bit AccessDatabaseengine.  I am selecting excel 2007.  Any ideas welcome.

Hi astro,
Please ensure that you haven’t renamed or moved the destination excel file during the exporting process. Also make sure that “Create destination table” option is checked as below screenshot and the SQL statement is correct.
For more details about using SQL Server Import/Export Wizard to export data from a SQL Server database to an Excel spreadsheet, please review the below blog.

  • Issue while importing table from oracle to sql server using import and export wizard

    Hi All,
    I am trying to populate oracle table to sql server using import export wizard  and i am getting the below error.the table is allready present in the database but still it throwing error like table doesn't exists.
    Could not connect source component.
    Error 0xc0202009: Source - JOB_ACTION_HISTORY [1]: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR.  An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005.

     (SQL Server Import and Export Wizard)
    Kindly help me out
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Snehasis,
    Please check whether the table name in the Oracle database has lower case letters. The table name should be exactly correct. 
    In addition, the issue might be related to the Oracle driver. What provider/driver do you use? If you use Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle, you can try the
    Oracle OLE DB Provider. If you use Enterprise or Developer edition of SSIS 2008 or higher, you can also try the
    Microsoft Connectors for Oracle by Attunity. The  Oracle OLE DB Provider and Microsoft Connectors for Oracle are proved to have better performance.

  • Error message using SQL import and Export Wizard with Excel spread sheet

    I am trying to import an Excel spreadsheet using the Import export wizard that is provided with SQL 2014.  
    Everything seems to set up OK but then when I go to do the transfer "error message" comes up saying:
    External Table is not in the expected format.(Microsoft Jet Database Engine).   
    This is a spreadsheet and there is no database, that is why I want to import it into a database!!  So the reference to JET is a tad disappointing.
    So why the error and how do I fix the problem?
    As there are over 100 variables in the spread sheet rows, it would be great to have this automatically create the database and populate the fields.
    I am using SQL 2014  Express and Office Excel 2013.
    Thank you in  advance for taking the time to read this, and hopefully sheading some light on the issue.

    Hi AWlcurrent,
    When import a .xlsx file to SQL Server using SQL Server Import and Export Wizard, you see a “External Table is not in the expected format.(Microsoft Jet Database Engine).” error message. This error message seems that the Microsoft JET Database Engine is
    unable to handle something that is contained in the file.
    So please make sure there is no unsupported content in the Excel file. Alternatively, we can use ‘Microsoft Excel’ as the Data Source, then Select ‘Microsoft Excel 2007’ as the Excel version to import the excel file.
    If there are any other questions, please feel free to ask.
    Thanks,

    Hi Smash126,
    Based on the error message” Could not allocate a new page for database REPORTING' because of insufficient disk space in filegroup 'PRIMARY'. Create the necessary space by dropping objects in the filegroup, adding additional files to the filegroup, or setting
    autogrowth on for existing files in the filegroup”, we can know that the issue is caused by the there is no sufficient disk space in filegroup 'PRIMARY' for the ‘REPORTING’ database.
    To fix this issue, we can add additional files to the filegroup by add a new file to the PRIMARY filegroup on Files page, or setting Autogrowth on for existing files in the filegroup to increase the necessary space.

  • SQL Server 2012: Import and Export Wizard - Exporting Multiple Result Sets at Once?

    I'm working in SQL Server 2012 trying to export some data from our database into an Excel file. My SQL statement has two separate Select statements. They are not joined by a union. When I Execute them inside of SQL Server Management Studio, with Results
    set to go to a Grid, I get two result sets back. Two full tables of data.
    However, when I use the Import and Export Wizard, the Excel sheet only has the first set of data.
    What do I need to do to have it so both result sets show up in the excel file?

    Why cant use merge them using union/union all if intention is to get them to same sheet? Is it like the metadata is different so that they cant be merged to single sheet?
    If that being the case you need to do it in two steps.

  • SQL Server 2000 and BPEL configuration issues

    I am attempting to get SQL Server 2000 to work with BPEL PM Server, and have followed a similar set of instructions as provided in a previously posted document regarding the switch from oracle lite to oracle production. I am following the OC4J route. I've seen a previous posting on this, however, I am elaborating a little more on the configuration details here and the difficulties that I am encountering.
    I'm am using the following software:
    1) SQL Server 2000 (w/ SP3)
    2) SQL Server 2000 JDBC Driver (SP3 latest version)
    3) BPEL PM (GA release)
    Here's what I've done:
    1) setup the database in SQL Server 2000 (named: ORABPEL). then ran the ddl scripts that came with the BPEL installation for sql server. there were two scripts, one for domain and the other for server. the commandlines to run these scripts:
    sql -Uuser -Ppassword -ddatabase
    -i c:\orabpel\system\database\scripts\domain_sqlserver.ddl
    -o c:\orabpel\system\database\scripts\domain_sqlserver.out
    2) installed stored procedures for JTA. this is documented in the JDBC driver help file.
    3) modified the library paths in application.xml as followed:
    <!-- SQL2K JDBC LIBS -->
    <library path="C:\Program files\Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Driver for JDBC\lib\msbase.jar"/>
    <library path="C:\Program files\Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Driver for JDBC\lib\msutil.jar"/>
    <library path="C:\Program files\Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Driver for JDBC\lib\mssqlserver.jar"/>
    4) modified the datasources in the data-sources.xml:
    - first comment out the oracle lite data-source
    - add datasources for mssql 2000:
    <data-source class="com.evermind.sql.DriverManagerDataSource"
         name="BPELServerDataSource"
         location="loc/BPELServerDataSource"
         xa-location="BPELServerDataSource"
         ejb-location="jdbc/BPELServerDataSource"
         connection-driver="com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver"
         url="jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://127.0.0.1:1433;SelectMethod=cursor;User=<username>;Password=<password>;DatabaseName=ORABPEL">
    </data-source>

         location="jdbc/BPELSamplesDataSource"
         xa-location="BPELSamplesDataSource"
         ejb-location="jdbc/BPELSamplesDataSource"
         connection-driver="com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver"
         url="jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://127.0.0.1:1433;SelectMethod=cursor;User=<username>;Password=<password>;DatabaseName=ORABPEL">
    </data-source>
    <data-source class="com.evermind.sql.DriverManagerDataSource"
    name="AdminConsoleDateSource"
    location="jdbc/AdminConsoleDateSource"
    xa-location="AdminConsoleDateSource"
    ejb-location="jdbc/AdminConsoleDateSource"

         url="jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://127.0.0.1:1433;SelectMethod=cursor;User=<username>;Password=<password>;DatabaseName=ORABPEL">
    </data-source>
    after starting the BPEL PM Server, I got the following set of error messages:
    Loading processes for BPEL domain "default" ...
    <2005-06-02 09:36:44,482> <ERROR> <default.collaxa.cube.sensor> <PCException::<i

    After this I went and changed the class tags to: com.microsoft.jdbcx.sqlserver.SQLServerDataSource

    Hi,
    I just saw your post message about configuring SQL server 2000 with Oracle BPLE. Have you configured it successfully or still encountered any problem.
    I am new to Oracle BPEL. Want to know if Oracle BPEL can use MSFT SQL server 2000 as the repository entirely, therefore, we don't need Oracle (or Oracle light database).
    Will really appreciate if you can share information and experience to configure SQL 2000 with Oracle BPEL.
    Thank you so much in advance.

  • Import and export performance issue

    Hi,
    There is #CLIENT_TEST# table having 2170178 records.
    I am using following command to exp and imp, which is taking up more time, around 4 to 5 hrs.
    Please help to improve the exp/imp performance. I'm using Oracle 10.2 version.
    _Export:_
    exp user/paswd@orcl file=<path> tables=(CLIENT_TEST) log=<path> buffer=409600  grants=Y rows=Y compress=N direct = Y

    Hi,
    you can have a look at the newer kind of export/import: EXPDP and IMPDP. See documentation: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14215/dp_overview.htm#SUTIL100
    It is faster than the old EXP/IMP.

  • SQL Server Import Export Wizard fails while trying to retrieve the data from FastObjects Database

    When trying to import data from FastObjects database to SQL Server 2008 R2 using import/ export wizard we get the following error message :
    "Column information for the source and the destination data could not be retrieved, or the data types of source columns were not mapped correctly to those available on the destination provider."
    Clicked on View button, the source data is retrieved correctly.
    Clicked on Edit Mapping button, the Import Export Wizard failed with the below error message:

    Hi Chennie,
    Thank you for the post.
    Does the issue persists after you use the "Write a query to specify the data to transfer" option instead of “Copy data from one or more tables or views” option? If so, the issue may occur due to incorrect data type matching between the FastObjects database
    data types and SSIS data types. In this condition, I don’t think it is necessary to upgrade the SQL Server version. Since you can open the Column Mappings dialog box, please try to modify the data type mapping manually.
    In addition, the issue seems to be the same as the issue described in the following blog:

  • Problem with Import and Export Data Wizard

    Downloaded and installed SQL Server Express 2008 R2 today because I want to explore how Access interacts with SQL Server (using my home computer). I'm using Access 2010 (under Windows 7), so the 2008 version of SQL Server Express seemed to be the version
    to use.
    After a couple of false starts, installation appeared to go okay. After the installation. My Start menu listed Microsoft SQL Server 2008 and Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2. The latter listed Import and Export Data (64-bit). When I clicked that, the first Import
    and Export Data Wizard page was displayed. I wasn't ready at that time to explore the wizard, so I closed it. An hour or so later I again attempted to open the Import and Export Data wizard. This time, the wizard didn't open. Instead this error message was
    displayed: "The SSIS Runtime object could not be created. Verify that DTS.dll is available and registered."
    I found DTS.dll on my computer at C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\DTS\Binn, so the file is available, but don't know whether it is registered.
    How can I correct this problem?

    First can you please post all log file errors
    >> I can't really give you a solution or specific recommendation since I did not saw this error yet myself, but on your own risk you can try:
    1. You may try to just register 'dts.dll' using regsvr32.exe, but this error may indicate a bigger problem with setup.
    If you are running SQL Server 64bit then try running this at the command prompt: %windir%\syswow64\regsvr32 "%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft SQL Server\90\dts\binn\dts.dll"
    2. You can try reinstall from start (In this case you have to make sure that you un-install all)

  • Memory leak issue with link server between SQL Server 2012 and Oracle

    Hi,
    We are trying to use the linked server feature with SQL Server 2012 to connect SQL server and Oracle database. We are concerned about the existing memory leak issue.  For more context please refer to the link.
    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/psssql/archive/2009/09/22/if-you-use-linked-server-queries-you-need-to-read-this.aspx
    The above link talks about the issues with SQL Server versions 2005 and 2008, not sure if this is still the case in 2012.  I could not find any article that talks about if this issue was fixed by Microsoft in later version.
    We know that SQL Server process crashes because of the third-party linked server provider which is loaded inside SQL Server process. If the third-party linked server provider is enabled together with the
    Allow inprocess option, the SQL Server process crashes when this third-party linked server experiences internal problems.
    We wanted to know if this fixed in SQL Server 2012 ?

    So your question is more of a information type or are you really facing OOM issue.
    There can be two things for OOM
    1. There is bug in SQL Server which is causing the issue which might be fixed in 2012
    2. The Linked server provider used to connect to Oracle is not upto date and some patch is missing or more recent version is to be used.  Did you made sure that you are using latest version.
    What is Oracle version you are trying to connect(9i,10g, R2...)
    Please mark this reply as answer if it solved your issue or vote as helpful if it helped so that other forum members can benefit from it

    Answer an interesting question?
    Create a wiki article about it!

  • The Projects screen to import and export SAP xApp Manufacturing Integration

    Hello:
    On my SAP Discovery Server, On the Projects screen to import and export SAP xApp Manufacturing Integration and Intelligence (SAP xMII) projects.
    Under the projects listed I see one Default project, is listed as a System Project.
    I did an import and used one of the sample application, along with the ExportManifest.xml file.
    "You can create an external project structure, include it in a zip file, and import it as a new project. You do not need an ExportManifest.xml file to import a project."
    Now I see two projects listed as System Projects, is that ok, would that cause any issues? Is there any way that I could correct this?
    Note:
    If you import a project that already exists, the system overwrites the current project structure and files.
    You can import hidden projects that do not appear on the Projects screen or in the SAP xMII Workbench. System-defined projects may appear in the Projects screen and in the SAP xMII Workbench, but you cannot delete them. You can import a project with the same name as a hidden or system-defined project and overwrite its properties. If you do this, they are no longer considered to be hidden or system-defined projects.
    Thank you,

    You could consider creating a project and exporting it to see the proper format of the zip file, including the ExportManifest.  You should find attributes in the xml for setting the description, system type, etc.
