Hey Everyone, I have been trying to import data from .xls files into tables in SQL SERVER 2005 but it keeps failing in the wizard on the validation part. The Error message I keep getting is
' Error 0xc00470fe: Data Flow Task: The product level is insufficent for component "Source - Sheet1$" (1).' I don't know what the cause of this is, but I tried installing SQL Server 2008 then in order to achieve the same task, & I kept getting a WMI (Windows Management Instrumentation) error when trying to install. I don't know if the errors are related, but I tried fixing the WMI by running several batch files & using the diagnostics but to no success. Does anyone have any insight on this?
Thanks

seems like you're trying to import data from excel 2010 or some later version file which your integration engine does not support


I dont have much idea on WMI error. did you try using ACE provider

I took the data from an excel 2007 file & saved it into an excel 2003 workbook. So I doubt that's the problem.

oh ok..Sorry I missed it. then it should be possible using export import wizard.
Between can you try manually doing this in ssis by creating a excel source and oledb destination
