When attempting to connect my Excel data to be used on SQL Server 2014, an error comes back with following error.
TITLE: SQL Server Import and Export Wizard
------------------------------
The operation could not be completed.
------------------------------
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
The requested operation requires a SqlClr context, which is only available when running in the Sql Server process. (System.Data)
------------------------------
BUTTONS:
OK
------------------------------
The reason why I am attempting to connect my Excel sheet is to use a direct query with the data from this source.
Any help would be appreciated
