Loop sheets and Excel workbooks

Wed, 08 Jan 2014 15:35:57 GMT

Hi All

I am trying to loop sheets and Excel workbooks. The data structure in all the sheets in all the workbooks is the same but each workbook has different number of sheets. I tried to use the below code and it works when excel workbooks has same number of sheets but doesn't work if the number of sheets in each workbook are not the same

Ex: When Q_Excel1.xlsx has 4 sheets and Q_Excel2.xlsx has 5 sheets below code doesnt work but when Q_Excel1.xlsx has 4 sheets and Q_Excel2.xlsx has has 4 sheets it works.

ODBC CONNECT TO [Excel Files;DBQ=C:\Desktop\Excel1.xlsx];

tables:

SQLTables;

DISCONNECT;

let var=NoOfRows('tables');

Data:

LOAD

FROM

(ooxml, no labels, header is 17 lines, table is '$(sheetName)');

FOR j = 0 to $(var)-1

let sheetName=subfield(peek('TABLE_NAME', j,'tables'),'$',1);

NEXT j

DROP Table tables;

Regards

Koushik
