Click on the View tab and check System objects. If you are using Microsoft Access 2007, 2010, 2013, or 2016, right-click on the navigation pane (just above the search box) and choose Navigation Options. Then, under display options, check Show System Objects and press OK.
The table references will be inside the XML of the SSIS Package. If you right click on a . dtsx and select edit with notepad++, this will open the xml and allow you to see what is being called.
A SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) package includes the necessary components, such as the connection manager, tasks, control flow, data flow, parameters, event handlers, and variables, to execute a specific ETL task. For an introduction to key SSIS functionality, check out the SSIS Basics guide.
I have inherited a terribly written MS Access database that I need to import into SQL. The Access database has several thousand tables in it with field definitions that are identical. I have some experience with SSIS, and importing one table is pretty simple.
However, I need to create a process where I can loop through the list of several thousand table names and import each table. I found this statement, that will get a list of all the table names in an Access database:
SELECT Name FROM MSysObjects WHERE (((MSysObjects.Type)=1) AND ((Left([Name],4))<>"MSys")) ;
However, I am unsure of how to use this (script task syntax?). I would think I would want to do this to populate a SSIS variable of an "object" type. That way, I can use a ForEach Loop to cycle through this list of tables and perform the importing. How can I do this? Or is there a better way to cycle through each table in the database and perform the same process?
I would greatly appreciate any suggestions. Thanks you!
