Install Microsoft Excel Driver (*.xls *.xlsx *.xlsm *.xlsb)
To connect Microsoft Office 2010 data directly to SharePoint 2007 / WSS 3.0 lists, without Office installed on the server, you have to install the Office 2010 System. Hi - I have a piece of code which connects to excel through ODBC. Its works on my 32-bit machine, but then throws an error when i try it on my 64-bit machine.
Opening a connection to a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet (e.g. *.xls) is achieved using the Microsoft Excel driver, typically called 'Microsoft Excel Driver (*.xls, *.xlsx, *.xlsm, *.xlsb)'. Unfortunately, this driver is available only on Windows, not Unix.
The easiest way to check if the driver is available to your Python environment (on Windows) is to use Cara install printer epson l300.
The resulting list will show any matching drivers, e.g., Download detective conan episodes torrent.
You can also check for the driver on your PC by navigating to Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Data Sources (ODBC), and then click on the 'Drivers' tab. The Excel driver will be listed there, if it is installed. It may have a slightly different name. Note also that there are separate 64-bit and 32-bit versions of the ODBC Administrator utility (odbcad32.exe).
The Microsoft Excel driver does not support transactions, so you must set autocommit
to True
on the connection or else you will get an error, e.g.:
Excel defaults to a read-only connection, so if you want to update the spreadsheet include ReadOnly=0
in your connection string: Mika the origin of love download blogspot.
Be careful of the data types in your Excel spreadsheet. The Excel driver uses the most common data type from the first 8 rows of the spreadsheet to determine the data type of each column. So if you have 5 numbers and 3 text values in the first rows of a column, the column will be considered numeric, and the 3 text values will be returned as NULL!
Also, the driver may treat the first row of the worksheet as the column names, rather than data, so be aware of this.
Overall though, it has to be said, Excel is not best suited for being accessed with an ODBC connection. You may want to consider using some other Python module instead of pyodbc, for example xlrd.
'When I attempt to create a new System DSN for an Excel 2010 Spreadsheet from within Impromptu, the above drive for the 'Create New Data Source' is unavailable.
If I go to Control Panel/Administrative Tools/ Data Sources and attempt to create a System DSN, I have the above driver available. If I create a data source here, then, once I attempt to use it as a database for a new catalog in Impromptu, it is unavailable (it doesn't even show on the list of databases).
I am running Impromptu 7.5 on a Windows 7 64-bit installation. Any help would be greatly appreciated. This is working on another installation of the same version of Impromptu and Windows 7 with the difference being it is a 32-bit installation.
Thank you for your time and assistance.'
