OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "(null)" returned message "Unspecified error".
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "(null)".

and when I am trying to run below query

INSERT INTO Test_IFRS (IFRS_Standard,AreaOf_Difference,IFRS_Description,USGAAP_Description,Difference1,Industry,Sub_Industry,Business_Process,SAP_Module,Sub_Module,PTransaction,Solution,Option1,Option2,Option3,Prerequisite)

FROM OPENROWSET('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0', 'Excel 8.0;Database=D:\Nitisha\TestExcel.xls;HDR=YES;IMEX=1', 'select * from [Sheet1$]') AS A;

getting error as

The select list for the INSERT statement contains fewer items than the insert list. The number of SELECT values must match the number of INSERT columns.

first sort out OPENROWSET issue

Is excel sheet in path D:\Nitisha\TestExcel.xls of the server? if its in a client machine then you need to put it in shared folder and use unc path //machine/...
