I have an Excel sheet which contains records as follows, this is planning for 72 months, this means that the Excel sheet contains 74 columns including the first two columns.

PROD_CODE PLANT_CODE 201107 201108 201109 201110 201111 201112 201201
1222 INAA 34 44 45 44 34 454 4455
1425 INAC 67 788 787 78 887 888 6767

My SQL Server table contains 4 columns as follows:

1-PROD_CODE
2-PLANT_CODE
3-YEAR_MONTH
4-FORECAST

How can I read the Excel sheet in store into the SQL Server as follows:

PROD_CODE PLANT_CODE YEAR_MONTH FORECAST
1222 INAA 201107 34
1222 INAA 201108 44

Please someone help asap.

You can use the OpenRowset function to open the excel and select its content as if you were selecting from a table.

SQL

INSERT INTO YourTable (Col1, Col2, ........)
SELECT Col1, Col2, ......
FROM OPENROWSET('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0','Excel 8.0;Database=C:\YourExcel.xls', 'select * from [Sheet1$]')
