Hi,

Can any one please explain me the procedure of loading a spread sheet data into a SQL Server with the table created already in the SQL Server using Datastage where SQL Server is the source.


Thanks for your Help

If source is spread sheet then just use the SEQUENTIAL FILE stage and link to database stage. do your transformation in any appropriate stage or use transformer in between.

Source is SQL Server. Target is SQL Server. Where does "spreadsheet" come into the picture?

Which is it: SQL or Excell?

You are asking how to load an Excell file into SQL Server and you have been shown how.

I'm not sure I know how your data can be an Excell file and a SQL Server table at the same time.

Please clarify.....be specific...
