Hi all,

I have been asked to get the output of a SQL query to an access file.. and i need help in doing it.

The query i have uses multiple databases and table and generates an output of 4 million rows.
Since Microsoft excel supports maximum of 1 million row, i have to create 4 excel files for the same..which is not acceptable by my client.
They want to see all 4 Million rows in a single file and excel does not support this.
Someone told me that I can use MICROSOFT ACCESS for doing so.
i.e. Direct the query output to access file.
I have never worked with ACCESS and dont know how to do it?
I tried to dig into the SSIS tool to find if that was possible, but i am still stuck.
Any help will be really appreciated.

Thanks,

i think what you need is data flow task with oledb source containing your query and access connection for destination.
