I have a SSIS package to upload data from Excel file into an Sql Server 2005 table.

The excel file will have varied lines of data ranging from 20k - 30k lines.

The upload works fine, when all the data are correct. But obviously fails when there is a small problem even in a single row. Examples like mandatory values presented null, inconvertable values (data type mismatch) etc.

I want to validate the excel file before the upload and want to tell the user which row and column has got the error...

Any idea as to how to accomplish this, without consuming much time and resources.

Thanks
