DTS Problem

  • iam using dts for fileuploads,

    an excel file is used for uploads

    all the columns in xcel are set to property as text

    each and every column in excel is mapped to a particular table columns, and this way data is transfered from excel to a table in sql-server

    date format in xcel is ->"04072005 "

    04 being the day

    07 being the month

    2005 being the year

     

    and in map script it is written

     DTSDestination("book_dt") = mid(DTSSource("pkup_dt"),5,4)+"-"+mid(DTSSource("pkup_dt"),3,2)+"-"+mid(DTSSource("pkup_dt"),1,2)

    but when i import an excel file, some columns get inserted as null in the table, even when they have date values

    If the package is pure DTS then right-click the package menu item - select Disconnected Edit...

    expand the Connections

    Expand the Excel Connection and view the Extended Properties entry

    In the Value Property add        ;IMEX=1 to the end of the connection string

    This is an IMport EXport mode setting to allow mixed values.

     

    Hope this helps
