Re: OT: SQL Server Import Help Needed

Les,

Have you tried copying the cell and doing a "Paste Special>Values"?

Sometimes, with a cell that's been worked alot Excel stores all sorts  
of weird stuff in there.   I've run into this before on files that  
were unusually large for what they contained.  Doing a Select  
All>Copy>Paste Special>Values fixed it.

That is if you're transferring from an .xls file and not a .csv.

HTH,

Jon

OT: SQL Server Import Help Needed

2007-01-16 Thread Les Mizzell
Trying to import an Excel Spreadsheet into an ntext(16) field using the 
Enterprise manager.

Getting an error: "Row Number 22"
Data Source Column is too large for specified buffer size."

Looking at the Excel Sheet - it's less than a paragraph of text.

Going through my CF Admin form to add data to the same table - I can 
paste PAGES of stuff from Word into the same column with no problem.


I'm sorta stumped.

What could it be?
