Opening rowset for “September$” failed. Check that the object exists in the database

Question

I'm getting the following error when trying to import an Excel file into my database.

This problem is being caused by spaces in the name of your Excel file. If you replace the spaces with underscores the error will go away. Change file name from this:

September Bioreference.xlsx

to this:

September_Bioreference.xlsx
