Import Excel spreadsheet columns into SQL Server d

问题:

I have an Excel spreadsheet that I want to import select columns into my SQL Server 2008 database table. The wizard didn't offer that option.

Do any easy code options exist?

回答1:

Once connected to Sql Server 2005 Database, From Object Explorer Window, right click on the database which you want to import table into. Select Tasks -> Import Data. This is a simple tool and allows you to 'map' the incoming data into appropriate table. You can save the scripts to run again when needed.

回答2:

Microsoft suggest several methods:

• SQL Server Data Transformation Services (DTS)
• Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Integration Services (SSIS)
• SQL Server linked servers
• SQL Server distributed queries
• ActiveX Data Objects (ADO) and the Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server
• ADO and the Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Jet 4.0

If the wizard (DTS) isn't working (and I think it should) you could try something like this http://www.devasp.net/net/articles/display/771.html which basically suggests doing something like

INSERT INTO [tblTemp] ([Column1], [Column2], [Column3], [Column4])

SELECT A.[Column1], A.[Column2], A.[Column3], A.[Column4]
FROM OPENROWSET 
('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0', 'Excel 8.0;Database=D:\Excel.xls;HDR=YES', 'select * from [Sheet1$]') AS A;

This may sound like the long way around, but you may want to look at using Excel to generate INSERT SQL code that you can past into Query Analyzer to create your table.

Works well if you cant use the wizards because the excel file isn't on the server

回答4:

You could use OPENROWSET, something like:

SELECT * FROM OPENROWSET('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0', 
  'Excel 8.0;IMEX=1;HDR=NO;DATABASE=C:\FILE.xls', 'Select * from [Sheet1$]'

Just make sure the path is a path on the server, not your local machine.

go
sp_configure 'show advanced options',1  
reconfigure with override  
go  
sp_configure 'Ad Hoc Distributed Queries',1  
reconfigure with override  
go
SELECT * into temptable
FROM OPENROWSET('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0',
                'Excel 8.0;Database=C:\Documents and Settings\abhisharma\Desktop\exl\ImportExcel2SQLServer\ImportExcel2SQLServer\example.xls;IMEX=1',
                'SELECT * FROM [Sheet1$]')

select * from temptable

Another option is to use VBA in Excel, and write a macro to parse the spreadsheet data and write it into SQL.

One example is here: http://www.ozgrid.com/forum/showthread.php?t=26621&page=1

Sub InsertARecord() 
Dim cnt As ADODB.Connection 
Dim rst As ADODB.Recordset 
Dim stCon As String, stSQL As String 
Set cnt = New ADODB.Connection 
Set rst = New ADODB.Recordset 

stCon = "Provider=MSDASQL.1;Persist Security Info=False;Data Source=JOEY" 
cnt.ConnectionString = stCon 
stSQL = "INSERT INTO MyTable (Price)" 
stSQL = stSQL & "VALUES (500)" 

cnt.Open 
rst.Open stSQL, cnt, adOpenStatic, adLockReadOnly, adCmdText 

If CBool(rst.State And adStateOpen) = True Then rst.Close 
Set rst = Nothing 
If CBool(cnt.State And adStateOpen) = True Then cnt.Close 
Set cnt = Nothing 

End Sub

By 'the wiz' I'm assuming you're talking about the 'SQL Server Import and Export Wizard'. (I'm also pretty new so I don't understand most questions, much less most answers, but I think I get this one). If so couldn't you take the spreadsheet, or a copy of it, delete the columns you don't want imported and then use the wizard?

I've always found the ability to do what I need with it and I'm only on SQL Server 2000 (not sure how other versions differ).

Edit: In fact I'm looking at it now and I seem to be able to choose which columns I want to map to which rows in an existing table. On the 'Select Source Tables and Views' screen I check the datasheet I'm using, select the 'Destination' then click the 'Edit...' button. From there you can choose the Excel column and the table column to map it to.

If you would like a visual tool with Desktop interface including validation .. you may well like this Excel tool. You can also use the tool to create multi user data-edit tasks, or even paste data to SQL server from any source..

回答9:

Microsoft Access is another option. You could have a Access database locally on your machine that you import the excel spreadsheets into (wizards available) and link to the the SQL Server database tables via ODBC.

You could then design a query in access that appends data from the Excel spreadsheet to the SQL Server Tables.

回答12:

The import wizard does offer that option. You can either use the option to write your own query for the data to import, or you can use the copy data option and use the "Edit Mappings" button to ignore columns you do not want to import.

Excel + SQLCMD + Perl = exceltomssqlinsert

and you can use your Excel as frond-end to MSSQL db ... Note the truncate table at the beginning of each generated sql insert file ...

I have used DTS (now known as SQL server Import and Export Wizard). I used the this tutorial which worked great for me even in Sql 2008 and excel 2010 (14.0)

I hope this helps

First of all, try the 32 Bit Version of the Import Wizard. This shows a lot more supported import formats.

Background: All depends on your Office (Runtimes Engines) installation.

If you dont't have Office 2007 or greater installed, the Import Wizard (32 Bit) only allows you to import Excel 97-2003 (.xls) files.

If you have the Office 2010 and geater (comes also in 64 Bit, not recommended) installed, the Import Wizard also supports Excel 2007+ (.xlsx) files.

To get an overview on the runtimes see 'Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0' provider is not registered on the local machine
