Error in importing multiple excel sheets to SQL Server

I have a package which imports multiple excel sheets to SQL server using a For each Container. However I am getting the following error message "Excel Source failed validation and returns validation status "VS-NEEDSNEWMETADATA".
Can you please advise me of the steps to potentially resolve this issue ?
Many thanks
Scott

Hi Scott,
Based on your scenario, you need to implement dynamic columns mapping which is not natively supported by managed source/destination adapters. To achieve dynamic columns mapping, we need to make use of Script Component to parse the input columns and dynamically
map them to the destination columns.

Importing multiple excel sheets into DIAdem

Hello,
I have an Excel file with multiple sheets. I am trying to import data from cells on each sheet into DIAdem. I am capable of importing anything I want so far using a VBS Script, but only from one sheet at a time. In order to import from another sheet, I have to select that sheet on Excel, save the file and close it. Then the next time the file is accessed by DIAdem, it will open on the sheet that was last saved on.
Is there a way I can create a VBS file that would check if there are any other sheets on the same file, move to a different sheet and import data from it? I am thinking some kind of IF statement that would realize when the last row from a sheet was imported, and then move on to the next sheet.
Any ideas/comments/suggestions will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks, Andy

Hi arkangel,
The GroupDefaultSet() command changes the default group, but that only affects ADDITIONS to the Data Portal after that point, such as new FormulaCalculation channels, excerpted section channels from VIEW, new ANALYSIS channels from an FFT calculation, etc.
If you want to reference channels of the same name from multiple groups, and you have DIAdem 9.x, you can use the [GroupName]/[ChannelName] adressing scheme to query off the "Time" channel from multiple groups. If you have DIAdem 9.1, then you can also use the [GroupIndex]/[ChannelName], [GroupName]/[ChannelIndex], or {GroupIndex]/[ChannelIndex] adressing options. For example:
For i = 1 TO GroupCount
ChNum = CNo("[" & i & "]/Time")
IF ChNum > 0 THEN Msg = Msg & "Group " & i & " --> " & ChnLength(ChNum) & vbCRLF
NEXT
MsgBox Msg
For DIAdem 8.x you will need to use the CNo() function's optional second parameter (ChannelNoStart) in order to ensure that you start at the next channel AFTER the one you just found. Channel numbers was all there was in DIAdem 8.x.

I have 4 Excel spreadsheets all with different formatting and column names that I want to use powershell to import into ONE Sql Server Table that I will want to create with powershell. I have found several instances of importing one workbook, but I

Hi IndigoMontoya,
As a workaroud, how about merge mutiple excel files into one file, then import this excel file to sql table?
To merge excel files, please refer to this script:
$Files = 'd:\merge1.xlsx','d:\merge2.xlsx'
#Launch Excel, and make it do as its told (supress confirmations)
$Excel = New-Object -ComObject Excel.Application
$Excel.Visible = $True
$Excel.DisplayAlerts = $False
#Open up a new workbook
$Dest = $Excel.Workbooks.Add()
#Loop through files, opening each, selecting the Used range, and only grabbing the first 6 columns of it. Then find next available row on the destination worksheet and paste the data
ForEach($File in $Files[0..4]){
$Source = $Excel.Workbooks.Open($File,$true,$true)
If(($Dest.ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Count -eq 1) -and ([String]::IsNullOrEmpty($Dest.ActiveSheet.Range("A1").Value2))){ #If there is only 1 used cell and it is blank select A1
[void]$source.ActiveSheet.Range("A1","F$(($Source.ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows|Select -Last 1).Row)").Copy()
[void]$Dest.Activate()
[void]$Dest.ActiveSheet.Range("A1").Select()

Importing excel file to SQL Server

I have an application that needs to import an excel file with
10 columns of data into an SQL Server database table with 13
columns of data. Two of the 3 extra database columns are manditory,
and I need to manipulate the values going in.
I've determined the best method to do this using coldfusion
is to import the excel file into a cvs file then use SQL to import
the cvs file into SQL server. Does anyone know how to import an
excel document into a cvs file using ColdFusion?
Thanks!

A couple of things come to mind. You might consider using DTS
to import your data directly into SQL Server from Excel, rather
than putting ColdFusion in the middle. Or, you might consider
creating a ColdFusion ODBC datasource out of your Excel file, use a
cfquery to select the applicable data, then insert the data into
SQL Server in a loop. Not very efficient, but it can be done.

Export in multiple excel sheets

Hi,
I am using crystal XI and need to export in multiple excel sheets from crystal. How can I do that, please help me.
Thanks,
Sagarika.

One of the 3rd-party Crystal Reports desktop schedulers listed at http://kenhamady.com/bookmarks.html allows you to burst a report so that each group level 1 becomes a separate excel worksheet in a single workbook. It also allows you to export a report to a worksheet inside an existing workbook.

Export to Multiple Excel Sheets

I would like to be able to export a report (or analysis) to multiple excel sheets.
I have 2 options, 'Answers' and 'BI Publisher'. Ideally I would like to use answers, but will use Publisher if necessary.
Is there an easy way to export reports to multiple excel sheets?

Hi jitapong,
When a Web Intelligence document is exported to a Microsoft Excel Workbook, the export is handled by the Web Intelligence report engine. Excel is not required to be installed on the machine to execute the export. So, regardless of whether Excel 2003 , Excel 2007, or no Excel is installed, the export is performed using the parameters built into the report engine. This export is done in the Excel 97-2003 format.
A limitation of pre-2007 Excel is the inability to create a worksheet greater than 65,535 rows long. Excel 2007 overcomes that inability thus allowing users to create worksheets of much greater length.
Resolution:
Web Intelligence 3.1 versions overcome the 65,000 row limitation by exporting the document to multiple worksheets within the Excel Workbook. Each worksheet will be 65,535 rows long. For example, if a query returns 150,000 rows of data the resultant export to Microsoft Excel would produce a single workbook with 3 worksheets. 2 worksheets of 65,535 rows and 1 worksheet of 18,930 rows. This export is compatable with Excel 2003 and 2007.

Create a table in SQL Server, Export tables from Microsoft Excel to Microsoft SQL Server, Populate the created table

Hello team,
I have a project that I need to do, what is the best approach for each step?
1- I have to create a table in Microsoft SQL Server.
2- I have to import data/ tables from Microsoft Excel or Access to Microsoft SQL Server. Should I use Microsoft Visual Studio to move data from Excel or Access?
3-I should populate the created table with the data from the exported data.
4-How should I add the second and third imported table to the first table? Should I use union query?
After I learn these, I will bring up the code to make sure what I do is right.
Thanks for all,

Excel 2007 to Sql server table. Column with more than 255 characters.

Hi there,
I am facing a problem while converting data from Excel 2007 to SQL server 2005 table. I am using BIDS 2005.I have an excel file where one particular column has more than 255 characters. I use OLEDB connection for excel file as there is no driver for Excel
2007 in BIDS2005. I am using Microsoft Office 12.0 Access Database Engine OLE DB Provider for Excel file.
Next, I changed advanced properties for the column to DT_NTEXT. But when I am getting errors on execution. They are:
[OLE DB Source [1949]] Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E21.
[OLE DB Source [1949]] Error: Failed to retrieve long data for column "action".
[OLE DB Source [1949]] Error: There was an error with output column "action" (2046) on output "OLE DB Source Output" (1959). The column status returned was: "DBSTATUS_UNAVAILABLE".
[OLE DB Source [1949]] Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_INDUCEDTRANSFORMFAILUREONERROR. The "output column "action" (2046)" failed because error code 0xC0209071 occurred, and the error row disposition on "output column "action"
(2046)" specifies failure on error. An error occurred on the specified object of the specified component. There may be error messages posted before this with more information about the failure.
Please advise on how can I deal with columns having more than 255 characters in Excel file.
Thanks!

Here is what your connection string should look like for excel source

=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data
