                                            | Hi all,I have to create a automated package. Firstly i have to import 2 specific columns  from a excel file to create  table1 in a database. then i have table2 with 20 columns out of which i need only 3 columns. so its goes like this , i want to merge table1( 2 columns)  with table 2 ( 3 specific columns) to create a new 3rd table with 5 columns. I want all these to automated.Here below is what my manager asked me to do for more clarification.The plan should be: Automated Import of Excel file to a table.Automated code as stored procedure which will compare another table  to this imported table.  Output results of the table are 5 columns. Eventually the code and automated import process will be implemented in a database.(Note: this sql server 2000 environment)Please i would appreciate if anyone can guide me to make this package .Thank u allYukon DBA |  |

                                          | Hmmm.Might need to provide a little bit more info.  Most of us are fresh out of randomly specific DTS package creation script. Poor planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part.

                                          | You can create a job with two steps, first one loading data from excel and second one creating merged table with sql code. |
