• Good, well-written article and having worked with SSIS, not too hard to understand and follow. I suppose if you had to generate this kind of Excel output on a regular basis, this code would be most helpful.

    However, it also highlights the often painful complexity of SSIS to the uninitiated and one must consider whether simply running a bunch of queries then copying and pasting the results - or - simply running the queries from the excel side are not more overall time-efficient, less tedious and complex approaches.

    Still, excellent and creative work, nicely documented.

    There's no such thing as dumb questions, only poorly thought-out answers...
