I'm doing an import of around 1300 excel files. I can get it to work but occasionally a spreadsheet will not have been formed properly.

My SSIS package looks for the worksheet called 'YieldData', but one or two have the default worksheets called Sheet1, Sheet2, Sheet3.

As it happens, these excel files are blank so what I'd like to do is ignore these altogether. Is it possible to set up my SSIS package so it ignores files that would otherwise cause the package to fail, and to carry on with the rest regardless?

Thanks. Where do I set that property?

By default, the FailPackageOnFailure and FailParentOnFailure are set to False and I can't find an onerror property.

btw, I'm using SSIS 2008.
