I am trying to export data into Excel from SSIS. For the purpose of this question, the table is called “products” and has two columns. I would like to extract each row of data into a separate Excel file and save it with the product name so I can email it accordingly. How do I go about this?

Hi,

You can do in tow ways. You can create an Excel file with those predefined columns, essentially your empty output file – this would act as your ‘Template File’. Your flow would then be this:
  1. File System Task – Copy template file to output or working directory (rename if necessary)
  2. OLEDB Source Task – Query your source for the data (3000)
  3. Data Conversion Task
  4. Excel Destination Task – Put data into new Excel file

Note: You already have steps 2 thru 3 complete, you just need to make sure you are connecting to the new Excel file. Also, to clarify, step 1 is outside the Control Flow Task.

This way is helpful because you always have a blank and consistently formatted Excel file to copy and work with.

or

The other option is to use a Script Task and create the Excel file – you could also load the data into the file in this task. This requires some basic understanding of VB.NET or C#. Basically you would need to get a XLS library (like NPOI). This is more complicated, but gives you the best functionality.

Hope this helps.
