If any answer please help me.

Answer 1

I found a way to import SQL data to Excel sheet without Excel task and excel connection of ADO.net or any SSIS Excel connections. I did it in a script task. I used documentformat.openxml package. I installed openxml package in NuGet manager. Then It didn't work showing some errors. When I opened the code reference was sowing some error. Then, I changed the reference path of the package manually and tried. It worked. Hope it would help someone.
