DataSource Controls :: Column Count Of An Excel Sheet?
Feb 22, 2010
I am trying to get column count of an Excel sheet. I need count of only those columns which are explicity defined by sheet creator. Columns other than explicitly defined take the form F20,F21... which i dont want to include in my counting. I am using
I want to upload data from an Excel Sheet into my DB. Now my major requirement is, I do not know the header count in the files to be uploaded and they may vary, for example one file may have 3 headers while some may have 6. and I want data of both these files to go into a single DB. That is, I want to dynamically generate columns in my DB, and store these values. So how do I go about achieving this.
Can I use MS SQL Server 2005 stored procedure to read data from MS Excel sheet and write into the table.I don't want to do it using C# or any other programming langauage. Simply using stored procedure should read sheet and write into SQL tables.Is its possible to do? If yes, then give me suggestions/sample tutorials for the same.
i am Using sql server 2005. i want to copy the data of the excel file to the table.
i wrote the query like :
INSERT INTO test(empId,empName,empMailId,empContactNo) SELECT * FROM OPENROWSET('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0', 'Excel 8.0;Database=C: estExcel.xls', 'SELECT * FROM [Sheet1$]')
got the following error :
SQL Server blocked access to STATEMENT 'OpenRowset/OpenDatasource' of component 'Ad Hoc Distributed Queries' because this component is turned off as part of the security configuration for this server. A system administrator can enable the use of 'Ad Hoc Distributed Queries' by using sp_configure. For more information about enabling 'Ad Hoc Distributed Queries', see "Surface Area Configuration" in SQL Server Books Online.
then did this
sp_configure 'show advanced options', 1; GO RECONFIGURE; GO sp_configure 'Ad Hoc Distributed Queries', 1; GO RECONFIGURE; GO
again am trying the same above query ,now am getting the following error:
Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 The OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "(null)" reported an error. The provider did not give any information about the error. Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "(null)".

success and failure is dependent on the mismatch of the datatype between the excel sheet and the database column

I want to import a spreadsheet into SQL. The import/export wizard forces Column A to be a double. In Excel, the column is formatted as text. When I try to convert from double to text/varchar/nvarchar, the import process fails. Why can't I convert a number to text in SQL?
I need a way to read all the rows in one column from an Excel file that the user picks from a fileupload control. I tried saving the excel file on the webserver with the upload control and then opening it with a OleDbConnection but that fails when running it from the webserver and gives the error:
Request for the permission of type 'System.Data.OleDb.OleDbPermission, System.Data, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' failed.
This works fine when just running it localhost, so i figured it might be a problem with security level at the webserver which i cant change. Instead i tried doing it with a streamreader direct from the fileupload control and because theres no need for saving the excel file on the server, but im not sure how to query the rows i need this way.

I am trying to create double and number format cells in excel using NPOI library. I used code like
Dim cell As HSSFCell = row.CreateCell(j) cell.SetCellValue(Double.Parse(dr(col).ToString))
In excel numbers are aligning right but when I check format it is showing in "General"
then I changed my code to like below
Dim cell As HSSFCell = row.CreateCell(j) cell.SetCellValue(Double.Parse(dr(col).ToString)) Dim cellStyle As HSSFCellStyle = hssfworkbook.CreateCellStyle cellStyle.DataFormat = HSSFDataFormat.GetBuiltinFormat("#,#0.0") cell.CellStyle = cellStyle
Then While opening file it is giving error and also taking so long to open. But Excel format showing in "Number" error showing is like below.
