I am exporting an mssql query to an excel file which has the first

  • 0

I am exporting an mssql query to an excel file which has the first two rows as a header. The first row (title) is one cell that spans from A1:K1. The second row (header) has 11 cells and spans from A2:K2. I would like to have an openrowset to change the title and a second openrowset to populate the excel file.

This doesn’t work:

    EXEC('INSERT INTO OPENROWSET(''' + @provider + ''',''' + @ExcelString + ''',''SELECT Top 1 * FROM [Sheet1$]'') 
SELECT Top 1 [Customer] FROM [ORDER SUMMERY] WHERE [Order #] = ''' + @OrderNumber + ''' AND (Status = ''C'' OR Status = ''I'')')

This is the second part and it does work:

    EXEC('INSERT INTO OPENROWSET(''' + @provider + ''',''' + @ExcelString + ''',''SELECT * FROM [Sheet1$A3:K3]'') 
SELECT [ITEMNUMBER],[CustomerSKU],[ITEM_DESCRIPTION],[CASEPACK],[Total Qty],[Case Price],[CASEPACK]*[Total Qty],[Total Qty]*[Case Price],[Unit Price],[PreTicketInfo],[Quote #] FROM [ORDER SUMMERY] WHERE [Order #] = ''' + @OrderNumber + ''' AND (Status = ''C'' OR Status = ''I'')')

Thanks!

    EXEC('INSERT INTO OPENROWSET(''' + @provider + ''',''' + @ExcelString + ''',''SELECT Top 1 * FROM [Sheet1$A1]'')  
SELECT Top 1 [Customer] FROM [ORDER SUMMERY] WHERE [Order #] = ''' + @OrderNumber + ''' AND (Status = ''C'' OR Status = ''I'')')

    Try this. Excel holds the value of merged cells in the top left of the merged cell range, so a merged spell spanning A1:K1 would be programmatically referred to as cell A1 when pulling value data
