Problem with DTS reading from spreadsheet
"Andy S." <andymcdba1[ at ]noreply.yahoo.com> 08.11.2005 23:08:57
Has anyone encountered an issue with blank cells when DTS tries to read
a range from a spreadsheet using a SELECT * FROM [Sheetname$] query? I have
a spreadsheet where I read a range, and some of the cells show up as blank
even though there are values in them. If I alter the cell and resave the
sheet, it works fine. I suppose this could be worksheet corruption, but I
wanted to see if there were any other ideas about what to do. Thanks.

Yes, thank you! It is amazing. This was driving me nuts. Excel will read
in the character data, the character mixed with number data, and ignore the
number data.

Your website is one of the best SQL sites out there. The looping example
alone was a lifesaver.
