I have an existing SSIS package that wrote data to an excel spreadsheet (Office 2016) We have upgraded to Office 365 and now I am unable to connect to or write to an Excel spreadsheet when trying to configure my SSIS package. It will only work when setting up an excel version of 2007-2010.

    Hi @Guilfoy, Kristy,

    Please try installing Microsoft Access Database Engine 2016 Redistributable, the issue may be that the excel file version is newer than 2010.

    Hi @Guilfoy, Kristy,

    It is not clear what machine you are referring to.

    You need to make sure that you have Microsoft ACE OLEDB Provider version 12.0 and/or 16.0 installed.

    • Developer workstation with VS2019 needs 32-bit edition of the ACE provider.
    • SSIS run-time server needs 64-bit edition of the ACE provider.
