Hi all,
I'm experiencing a very frustrating issue. I am using the guide below to read a cell value in Excel into a SSIS variable;
http://www.techbrothersit.com/2013/11/ssis-read-excel-cell-value-in-ssis.html
It works very well for anything but a cell that has a date in it! I have tried to change the data type of the SSIS variable to everything possible but it still doesn't work, and I keep getting this error message;
An error occured while assigning a value to variable "ValuationDate": "Unsupported data type on result set binding 0"
The cell I am trying to read is B4, and the SQL Statement I am using in the Execute SQL Task isSELECT * FROM [Sheet1$B4:B5]. I am happy this is correct because if I change the value in B4 to anything that isn't a date, it works.
Please help!!
