    You can use the ACE OLE DB provider to read Excel 2003 and Excel 2007 files.

    This driver is used normally for the Excel 2007 files, but due to backwards compatability it can read 2003 as well.

    I tested it and it seems it is not possible. Although the ACE OLE DB provider can read .xls files, he cannot change dynamically between .xls and .xlsx.

    So you'll need to create two connection managers and 2 dataflows to transfer the files.

    you can add expression of excelversionnumber, if xlsx set the value to 4 if xls set to 3

    Hi resurrecting this thread, I see the approach in the attached screenshot. Just wondering how do you go ahead about dynamically setting the excelname variable to accept either xlsx or xls file paths?

    Thanks!
