This is what we are expecting in xaml file. Please help on this it will be highly appreciatable.

@rakeshadn Do you download the link which I have shared it will take data from csv and put into database this is the requirement you was having…

8

Yes, i Have downloaded, I need from excel, For Excel in the same way we tried data will not import, In excel file if we have differnt types of data types then errors will come, So we want to upload it using insert into by using parameters.

@rakeshadn,

Extracting data from excel should be straightforward using the read range activity. It may be beneficial for you to provide a sample of your excel file so the forum can better understand the challenges you are having.

Hi i have already uploaded sample excel file , Any how again i have uploaded sample excel file please check. Thanks

Thanks for providing again, not sure how I missed that. Looking at your sample you should be able to utilize @Indra 's csv to database example. You will just need to change the first activity from read csv to read range in order to interact with the Excel file.

Hi Team,

Above link example is csv to My SQL, where as i requested for Excel to MS MSQL, Even though i use Read range, Data is not pumping into SQL server. So many times i am requesting for this, really disappointed on this , upto now no one provides perfect solution, its just simply deviating the requirement.
