Scenario:
We have excel file with Sheet1 as shown below. We want to skip first 3 rows as they are only description and start reading from 4th Row. The 4th Row contains Header and rest of them are data rows.
Solution :
Step 1:
Lets create connection for Excel Source as shown below
Go to Extended properties and set HDR=YES, means the file has header(First Row as header)
With all above changes we are done with configuration for our excel
Step 2:
Lets place Data Flow task on Control Flow Pane and then get OLE DB Source and configure as shown below.
The query I used is
Select * from [Sheet1$A4:D]
I did not put any number with D that means we want to read all the rows. lets say we want to read first ten rows then our query will look like this
Select * from [Sheet1$A4:D10]
Final Output:
I used multicast as destination so I can put Data Viewer between Source and Multicast to show the records.
As we can see that our Source skipped first 3 rows and start reading from 4th row.
