Import Excel files into a SQL Server DB.


i trying teach myself how import excel files sql server db.  know access quite , time when working access.  trying learn sql server better, , think exercise learn of features of sql server.  so, anyway, i’m following example here:

http://sql-bi-dev.blogspot.com/2010/08/dynamic-ssis-package-to-import-excel.html

 

go through first steps fine.  trying step 2 working:

step 2: create new ssis package , rename loaddynamicexcelfiles.dtsx

 

tried open integration services project business intelligence project (in vs 2008).  keep getting message reads ‘microsoft visual studio unable load document.  design integration services packages in business intelligence development studio, integration service has installed 1 of these editions of sql server 2008: standard eition, developer, or evaluation.  install integration services, run sql server setup , select integration services.‘

 

now, i’m not sure how create new ssis package.  goggled around solution, still can’t working.  have c# express (2008), vb express (2008), , vwd express (2008) installed on thinkpad.  have microsoft visual studio 2008 installed.  version 9.0.30729.1 sp – version 3.5 sp1.  dind’t pay , i’m not sure came from; perhaps came download of microsoft sql server 2008/microsoft sql server management studio version 10.0.1600.22.  in other words, have sql server express 2008 installed on thinkpad.

 

so, question is, based on software running, how can create new ssis package?

tried link:

http://www.microsoft.com/sqlserver/en/us/get-sql-server/try-it.aspx

 

clicked on 'sql server 2008 r2 downloads'  waited 30-seconds, , saw message said: 'problems occurred while accessing file system. verify file system accessible , has enough free space.'  size of download 1.47gb; have 67.1gb free.  have windows 7.  64-bit, right.  need 32-bit version?  not sure.  tried both 32 , 63; neither worked.  error message same both.  doing wrong?  using sql server express.

 

hi,

you not able open ssis package becuase ssis package designer/serive not come sql express edition.

you need use heigher edition. can start developing ssis package developer edition.

if want can download the sql 2008 r2 eveluation edition also..
