I am getting an error while exporting data from SQL Server to an already created .xlsx
file using openrowset
.
It works fine most of times, but when the data comes in of the field as a large string, while inserting into Excel, it shows this error:
The statement has been terminated, string or binary data would be truncated.
Data gets inserted into table, but while inserting in Excel, this error appears. Please help me find a solution.
As the error mentions "data would be truncated", you should be provide a longer string value into a placeholder or field that has a smaller storage size.
For example, the source field may have data type nvarchar(max) and in your SQL development or where a mapping exists, you assing the values into a smaller data size type. For example, in source table you have a string value 5000 characters, but during the process it is assigned to a nvarchar(4000) then a data truncation will occur
I would suggest you to check data mappings in your statements
