Hi,
I have to construct on Excel a worksheet, where users can write data on
table. When they finish, they have to press a button. This button is calling
a SSIS package on the server. What is the best way to proceed if i have many
users?

Ok?

Not sure what you need here.

Does your application create the Execel Workbok and sheet and you want
to pump that into SQL Server using SSIS?

OR

Do you use the the same workbook for all users and they create their
worksheet in the same book?

The latter may see concurrency issues on the XL file.

We are going to use the same worksheet, a table containing data from SQL
server will be refresh after the user press a button. And the same user will
send data to SQL Server after changing some datas. Each time tht new data are
in the system, some package must run again.

We can use VBA to send data to the server, or to refresh cells, but when a
user finish to fill the table, we have to launch some process.

Wouldn't you better off writing a macro inside of Excel to do this
instead of invoking SSIS? What do you see are the advantages of SSIS?
