All hardware is 32-bit. [Revised 1/10/12 http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8797978/how-to-resolve-could-not-find-installable-isam-error-for-ole-db-provider-mic to try to focus more sharply on the anomalies] The following T-SQL statement produces the error: SELECT * FROM OPENROWSET('Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0', 'Data Source=C:\work\TestData.xlsx;Extended Properties="Excel 12.0 XML;HDR=YES"', 'SELECT * FROM [Sheet1$]' ) If I save the Excel file in the "Excel 97-2003" format (.xls) and use the older Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0 provider to import the data, it works just fine. This makes me think it is not a security or other environmental issue. SELECT * FROM OPENROWSET('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0', 'Excel 8.0;Database=C:\work\TestData.xls;HDR=YES', 'SELECT * FROM [Sheet1$]' ) However, when I try the *.xls file with Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0 provider, which should be backward compatible with the *.xls format, it again fails with the same error: SELECT * FROM OPENROWSET('Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0', 'Data Source=C:\work\TestData.xls;Extended Properties="Excel 8.0;HDR=YES";', 'SELECT * FROM [Sheet1$]' ) Also, interestingly, when I use the SSMS "Import Data..." wizard, it works fine. I saved the Import Data wizard output as an SSIS package and looked in the SSIS file to try to figure out how it works, and it IS successfully using the Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0 provider. This is the connection string from the SSIS package:

The connection string uses the Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0 provider with following parameters Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Excel 8.0; Extended Properties=HDR=No; IMEX=1. I checked the registry entries as mentioned in the "Retrieving could not find Data from Excell 2003-Could Not Find installable ISAM" post and even registered the "Msexcl40.dll" again. Even then I got the "Could Not find installable ISAM error". So I restarted the IIS Server. Even then the problem persists. What else could be the problem? Thanks and Regards, Little Thursday, October 12, 2006 8:17 AM Reply | Quote Answers 9 Sign in to vote This error will also be generated when the syntax of the connection string is incorrect. This commonly occurs when using multiple Extended Properties parameters. Below is an example: ConnectionString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & _"Data Source=e:\My Documents\Book20.xls;Extended Properties=""Excel 8.0;HDR=NO;IMEX=1""" Thursday, October 12, 2006 12:13 PM Reply | Quote 1 Sign in to vote copy the below code to a buton click event. then change the path for you mdb and xls. it will work..100%.....................
