I have an Excel Spreadsheet that contains all my data that I need to

  • 0

I have an Excel Spreadsheet that contains all my data that I need to put into an SQL Server database. I am fairly new o ASP.NET and have never had to export from Excel to SQL Server before.

My Excel spreadsheets looks like this

Trade Heading -> ArtID -> BusinessName -> AdStyleCode -> Address -> Suburb

In SQL Server I have created a table named ‘Listings’ which is in this format

intListingID -> intCategoryID -> BusinessName – ArtID -> intAdCode ->Address -> Suburb

What would be the best way to export the data from Excel and then import it into SQLServer 2005.

Thanks…

    [EDIT]

    If you have Express then you can try the below commands to setup a linked server and get the data

    EXEC sp_addlinkedserver ExcelData,'Jet 4.0','Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0','C:\MyData.xls', NULL, 'Excel 5.0;' GO

    Then you can select the data into your tables 

    INSERT INTO Listings ... SELECT column1 AS intListingID, <put all columns here> FROM ExcelData...Data GO
