I created a Project within SSIS it would take data from a table within a db, do a data conversion and then insert into a Excel spreadsheet. it was working fine with no issues for about a week but now I'm having issues with th e connection manager. I'm getting the data fine from the DB its when it comes to the excel spreadsheet. I have tried doing the project again but still doesn't work. I create a new excel destination within SSIS > a new connection manager go to folder destination and state what I want document to be called. nothing is available from the name of excel sheet drop down and when I select NEW it just closes window. I'm not sure what has gone wrong is it a permissions thing? I have attached screenshot of this and the error when I run application

Do you have permissions to write to that folder, try creating connection manager to your local c drive and check – Ven Nov 03 '17 at 08:41

In The Excel Connection Manager Properties, Try changing the delay validation property. It worked for me when I had the same issue. Also, Make sure that the destination file is not open in any other programmes – Jayasurya Satheesh Nov 03 '17 at 08:47

I have tried having the connection manager look at a folder on network drive and C drive and still does do it....I have tried creating spreadsheet before connection manager and have tried creating through connection manager. I just don't understand what has happened as it has been working in the past – sql2015 Nov 03 '17 at 08:48

i think something must have changed with access to the db. if I use the import wizard and select OLE DB for SQL server as the Datasource nothing is appearing in the server name drop down and If I manual enter it I get an error

Try this: Step 1) Navigate to Project-> [PROJECT_NAME] Properties. Step 2: Navigate to “Debugging” option from left panel and from Right panel change Run64BitRuntime value to false.
