Now Execute the below Query on AdventureWorks Database.

sp_helptext RenameTest

Now if you observer the result pane, the result will be the same statement with the procedure name still not changed even after renaming the SP using the management studio. The result will be as shown below.

CREATE PROC TestRename AS
Print 'XYZ'

Most of us know how to use an Office Excel file in an SSIS package. As long as we use an Excel file with the .xls extension it would be fine. But, when it comes to Office Excel 2007 it would be a bit different. The Connection manager for Excel files option that we usually choose will not work.

Since Office Excel 2007 and its .xlsx extension came after a long time after SQL Server 2005 release and since this new format is entirely different from the previous formats we have a little problem in using Connection manager for Excel files option with Excel 2007.This was sorted out with the Service Pack 2. This Service Pack gave us a new driver which could be used for Office Excel 2007 files.
