Giving error,
OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "(null)" returned message "The Microsoft Jet database engine could not find the object 'Sheet1$'. Make sure the object exists and that you spell its name and the path name correctly.".
Msg 7350, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Cannot get the column information from OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "(null)".

4 If you dont want to create an EXCEL file in advance and want to export data to it, use
EXEC sp_makewebtask
@outputfile = 'd:\testing.xls',
@query = 'Select * from Database_name..SQLServerTable',
@colheaders =1,
@FixedFont=0,@lastupdated=0,@resultstitle='Testing details'
(Now you can find the file with data in tabular format)
5 To export data to new EXCEL file with heading(column names), create the following procedure
create procedure proc_generate_excel_with_columns
(
@db_name varchar(100),
@table_name varchar(100),
@file_name varchar(100)
)
as
--Generate column names as a recordset
declare @columns varchar(8000), @sql varchar(8000), @data_file varchar(100)
select
@columns=coalesce(@columns+',','')+column_name+' as '+column_name
from
information_schema.columns
where
table_name=@table_name
select @columns=''''''+replace(replace(@columns,' as ',''''' as '),',',',''''')
--Create a dummy file to have actual data
select @data_file=substring(@file_name,1,len(@file_name)-charindex('\',reverse(@file_name)))+'\data_file.xls'
--Generate column names in the passed EXCEL file
set @sql='exec master..xp_cmdshell ''bcp " select * from (select '+@columns+') as t" queryout "'+@file_name+'" -c'''
exec(@sql)
--Generate data in the dummy file
set @sql='exec master..xp_cmdshell ''bcp "select * from '+@db_name+'..'+@table_name+'" queryout "'+@data_file+'" -c'''
exec(@sql)
--Copy dummy file to passed EXCEL file
set @sql= 'exec master..xp_cmdshell ''type '+@data_file+' >> "'+@file_name+'"'''
exec(@sql)
--Delete dummy file
set @sql= 'exec master..xp_cmdshell ''del '+@data_file+''''
exec(@sql)
After creating the procedure, execute it by supplying database name, table name and file path
EXEC proc_generate_excel_with_columns 'your dbname', 'your table name','your file path'
