OLE DB Source Editor (Connection Manager Page)

Use the Connection Manager page of the OLE DB Source Editor dialog box to select the OLE DB connection manager for the source. This page also lets you select a table or view from the database.

Note

To load data from a data source that uses Microsoft Office Excel 2007, use an OLE DB source. You cannot use an Excel source to load data from an Excel 2007 data source. For more information, see Configure OLE DB Connection Manager. To load data from a data source that uses Microsoft Office Excel 2003 or earlier, use an Excel source. For more information, see Excel Source Editor (Connection Manager Page).

Note

The CommandTimeout property of the OLE DB source is not available in the OLE DB Source Editor, but can be set by using the Advanced Editor. For more information on this property, see the Excel Source section of Source Custom Properties.

To learn more about the OLE DB source, see OLE DB Source.

  • Preview

    Note

    When you preview data, columns with a CLR user-defined type (UDT) do not contain data. Instead the values <value too big to display> or System.Byte[] display. The former displays when the data source is accessed using the SQL OLE DB provider, the latter when using the SQL Native Client provider.
