DataSource Controls :: Using MS SQL Stored Procedure Read Excel Sheet?
Feb 11, 2010
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.
Initially, I have tried to use stored procedure. But I changed my mind and preferred to call sql query in codebase with command text. However, it stills tries to find initially-called stored procedure (which is neither called or exists).I think that it is related caching. But I tried it with different browsers it did not work.What might be the reason?

USE [master] GO EXEC master.dbo.sp_MSset_oledb_prop N'Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0', N'AllowInProcess', 1 GO EXEC master.dbo.sp_MSset_oledb_prop N'Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0', N'DynamicParameters', 1 GO
The database I am using has a schema called EQB and as such, my stored procedures are named as EQB.usp_SelectFunds, EQB.usp_SelectAccount, etc.
On the select tab of the Configure Data Source screen, I choose to use a stored procedure. The dropdown shows my stored procedures, however, the schema name does not show up in front of the stored procedures in the drop down. I see only usp_SelectFunds, usp_SelectAccount, etc.
I select one of the stored procedures and when I click TEST, I get the message that the stored procedure is not found. If I instead choose to use a SQL statement instead on the configuration screen and enter EXEC EQB.usp_SelectFunds and click TEST, it works fine.
Why are my stored procedures not showing up correctly in the stored procedure drop down and how can I fix this?
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.
I have a requirement to read the excel sheet contents(with first row as header) and to populate it in a Datagrid. so as to manipulate the excel sheet data. But i get an error saying "Could not find installable ISAM". after a big struggle i came to know that the culprit is the "connection string". I tried with various connection strings and now i get the error " Format of the Initialization string does not conform to specification starting at index 121".
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
