A Unique Problem With DoCmd.Output Into Excel
Jul 11, 2007
hi
Would be glad if somebody could help me on this issue that been nagging a set a databases that we use.
The Access databases that we use are around 200 MB in size..
Its multiuser say maybe around 40-60 users.The database is split to enhance performance.
We use DoCmd.OutputTo ...statement to output the query into Excel sheet.
Example :
DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputQuery, "qryAllPrems", acFormatXLS, , False
The problem that we are facing is that the after the execution of the statment the query ( qryAllPrems) gets wiped out....i.e the entire sql in the query gets wiped out clean ..
It's driving us crazy as to what could be the cause of the problem...and I would appreciate it if somebody could help us..in this regard.

I'm writing a simple job scheduling database, so I've got resource availability (by week) and job list (by week). I've written a single-column query whose only output is a unique list of weeks with resources available, and another single-column query whose only output is a unique list of weeks with at least one job allocated.
How do I join these so that I can get a single-column list of weeks that have either (or both) of resources and jobs?
So Query1 returns:
25/08/2014
08/09/2014
15/09/2014
while Query2 returns:
01/09/2014
08/09/2014
15/09/2014
22/09/2014
I want query3 to return:
25/08/2014
01/09/2014
08/09/2014
15/09/2014
22/09/2014

Hi
If I open a query in Access and uses the "Export to Excel" button everything works out just fine.
But when I want to make the export with a button using the code:
DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputQuery, "qryToExcel", acFormatXLS
I only get 255 chars from the PM-fields to excel.
Can anyone help me solve this problem?
I also want to make some filtering, with code string, to the query before I export it, could use some suggestions there also.
Thanks in advance

I am having a problem getting Access to output to an excel file.
I want to take a form that I have that has 20 or so records with 6 or 7 fields for each and put it into an excel file that is formated the way I need everythign to look.
I also need it to make the file name such as CCCAAAMMDDYYYY (3 letter company abbreviation,3 letter initials and then todays date) I am thinking that the company abbreviation will be pulled from a query, then initials will be a form that opens, and the date can be pulled from access' date function.
I tried using vb code and doing an output to comand but that did not work.
I am confused someone please help if possible.

Hello first of all I have learned a lot from this forum so thanks you all who post questions & solutions. Ok I have a table which I use to query info and export to excel. My question is there a way to add sum totals to a few of the columns once it is in excel. I was thinking it would be easier to do a sum statement then just add it as the bottom row while it was exporting. Or would it be easier to do it once it is in excel. Here is my code:
Private Sub Command63_Click()
Dim strSQL As String, strOrder As String, strWhere As String
Dim dbNm As Database
Dim qryDef As QueryDef
Set dbNm = CurrentDb()
strSQL = "SELECT tblCONSOLIDATED.ACCOUNT1, tblCONSOLIDATED.COMPANY_NAME, tblCONSOLIDATED.CUSTOMER_TYPE, tblCONSOLIDATED.ADDRESS1, tblCONSOLIDATED.ADDRESS2, tblCONSOLIDATED.CITY, tblCONSOLIDATED.STATE, tblCONSOLIDATED.ZIP, tblCONSOLIDATED.CONTACT_NAME, tblCONSOLIDATED.E_MAIL, tblCONSOLIDATED.TELEPHONE, tblCONSOLIDATED.FAX, tblCONSOLIDATED.REP_NUMBER, tblCONSOLIDATED.PROMOCODE, tblCONSOLIDATED.SALESCODE, tblCONSOLIDATED.CURRENT_YTD, tblCONSOLIDATED.PRIOR_YTD, tblCONSOLIDATED.PRIOR_TOTAL, tblCONSOLIDATED.YEAR2_TOTAL, tblCONSOLIDATED.YEAR3_TOTAL, tblCONSOLIDATED.YEAR4_TOTAL " & _
"FROM tblCONSOLIDATED"
strWhere = "WHERE"
strOrder = "ORDER BY CURRENT_YTD DESC"
If Not IsNull(Me.txtCSONME) Then
strWhere = strWhere & " (tblCONSOLIDATED.COMPANY_NAME) Like '*" & Me.txtCSONME & "*' AND"
End If
If Not IsNull(Me.txtCSOSLD) Then
strWhere = strWhere & " (tblCONSOLIDATED.ACCOUNT1) Like '*" & Me.txtCSOSLD & "*' AND"
End If
If Not IsNull(Me.txtCSOARN) Then
strWhere = strWhere & " (tblCONSOLIDATED.CONTACT_NAME) Like '*" & Me.txtCSOARN & "*' AND"
End If
If Not IsNull(Me.txtCSOCTY) Then
strWhere = strWhere & " (tblCONSOLIDATED.CITY) Like '*" & Me.txtCSOCTY & "*' AND"
End If
If Not IsNull(Me.txtCSOST) Then
strWhere = strWhere & " (tblCONSOLIDATED.STATE) Like '*" & Me.txtCSOST & "*' AND"
End If
If Not IsNull(Me.txtCSOZIP) Then
strWhere = strWhere & " (tblCONSOLIDATED.ZIP) Like '*" & Me.txtCSOZIP & "*' AND"
End If
If Not IsNull(Me.txtCSOSSM) Then
strWhere = strWhere & " (tblCONSOLIDATED.REP_NUMBER) Like '*" & Me.txtCSOSSM & "*' AND"
End If
If Not IsNull(Me.txtCSOM1) Then
strWhere = strWhere & " (tblCONSOLIDATED.PROMOCODE) Like '*" & Me.txtCSOM1 & "*' AND"
End If
If Not IsNull(Me.txtSLCYYD1) Then
strWhere = strWhere & " (tblCONSOLIDATED.CURRENT_YTD) BETWEEN " & Me.txtSLCYYD1 & " And " & Me.txtSLCYYD2 & " AND"
End If
If Not IsNull(Me.txtSLLYYD1) Then
strWhere = strWhere & " (tblCONSOLIDATED.PRIOR_YTD) BETWEEN " & Me.txtSLLYYD1 & " And " & Me.txtSLLYYD2 & " AND"
End If
If Not IsNull(Me.txtSLPYR11) Then
strWhere = strWhere & " (tblCONSOLIDATED.PRIOR_TOTAL) BETWEEN " & Me.txtSLPYR11 & " And " & Me.txtSLPYR12 & " AND"
End If
If Not IsNull(Me.txtSLPYR21) Then
strWhere = strWhere & " (tblCONSOLIDATED.YEAR2_TOTAL) BETWEEN " & Me.txtSLPYR21 & " And " & Me.txtSLPYR22 & " AND"
End If
If Not IsNull(Me.txtSLPYR31) Then
strWhere = strWhere & " (tblCONSOLIDATED.YEAR3_TOTAL) BETWEEN " & Me.txtSLPYR31 & " And " & Me.txtSLPYR32 & " AND"
End If
If Not IsNull(Me.txtSLPYR41) Then
strWhere = strWhere & " (tblCONSOLIDATED.YEAR4_TOTAL) BETWEEN " & Me.txtSLPYR41 & " And " & Me.txtSLPYR42 & " AND"
End If
If (Me.PROSPECTBX) = True Then
strWhere = strWhere & " (tblCONSOLIDATED.CUSTOMER_TYPE) Like 'P' AND"
End If
If Not IsNull(Me.txtSLCLS) Then
strWhere = strWhere & " (tblCONSOLIDATED.SALESCODE) Like '*" & Me.txtSLCLS & "*' AND"
End If
If strWhere = "WHERE" Then
strWhere = ""
Else
strWhere = Trim(Left(strWhere, Len(strWhere) - Len("AND")))
End If
Set qryDef = dbNm.QueryDefs("qrySALESDATA")
qryDef.SQL = strSQL & " " & strWhere & "" & strOrder
DoCmd.OutputTo acQuery, "qrysalesdata", "MicrosoftExcel(*.xls)", "QUERY RESULTS.xls", True, ""
End Sub
Sorry for adding the whole thing but I'm not sure it should be done after "Query Results.xls" is written or during the select statement.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi Guys,
I have 2 tables
tblXRFResults
ResultID
SampleName
Date
SampleDate
a few others not necessary in this
and tblXRFResultsConcentration
ResultID (many records linked to 1 record in tblXRFResults)
Concentration
CompoundName
What I need to set up is a query that will allow me to generate a report that will give an excel like format, with the column headings being the SampleName, followed by the CompoundName(s) from the other table and the "rows" will be corresponding sample name and concentrations.
I am sure this is pretty easy, but I am stumped!
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I guess you've all heard this one before, but I'm relatively new to Access, and was wondering if there was a way to export data from a form to an already existing Excel spreadsheet via a form button. Is this even possible in MS Office 2007, or even at all?

Hi all,
I have been using this command in VB to export Access tables to Excel. Everything works fine except when the table contains a large Character/Text field- it gets truncated to around 200 chars. Is this a known limitation or I am doing something wrong? DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet command works correctly but there are some limitations to this command.
Can please somebody help
Thanks

I'm working with Access 2010 and am trying to use the transferspreadsheet command to output data in a query to an Excel 2010 format file. Here is the line of code:
DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acExport, acSpreadsheetTypeExcel12, "q_calldetails_tmp", "c: emp estoutput.xlsx"
It works fine and produces the output file but when I try and open it with Excel I get an error saying the format is incorrect. If I change the extension to .xls it opens with no problem but I need it to be an Excel 2010 format with correct extension.

have a query which I would like to export to excel 2010 and would like separate files saved using a unique field called [Brokerage]. The code below exports the query however does not export separate worksheets as I am missing something perhaps the OutputTo function.
Private Sub Commission_Excel_Click()
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Dim MyFileName As String
Dim temp As String
Dim mypath As String

I'm using Access 2007 SP3.
Whenever I export reports to PDF, the output appears zoomed and clipped. No extra pages are generated as they would be if I'm going over margins, it's just the report is clipped.
The report looks perfect in preview mode, and it looks perfect when going to an actual printer. However, when using OutputTo to save it as a PDF, this is when the report content is clipped.
Here is the code I'm using:
DoCmd.OpenReport MyReport, acViewPreview
DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport, "", acFormatPDF, "MyReport.pdf"
DoCmd.Close acReport, MyReport
I open the report in preview mode first so events are fired that show/hide various objects based on fields in the recordset.
I've tried reinstalling, and I've tried this on two different machines, one running Windows 7 and one running Windows Server 2008...both with the same results.

I have been working on a simple data base for some time now (beginner level) and am still trying to improve it. I would like to do something but before that I would like to have your opinion to know if it is even possible?I have a query QryMainReport:
Start Date/Time
End Date/Time
Employee
At the moment this is what the format of my report looks like (I removed other unnecessary fields):
StartTime----------EndTime---------------Employee
12/06/2014 01:00--12/06/2014 03:00------John Smith
12/06/2014 04:00--12/06/2014 06:00------Jane Doe
13/06/2014 02:00--13/06/2014 05:00------John Smith
13/06/2014 08:00--13/06/2014 08:00------Jane Doe
I would like to do as a report. (Dates would always be from Sunday to Saturday). I am not sure it is possible to do that. I suppose first it would mean:I would have to do a query to separate the times from the dates?I would have to find a way for Access to find the unique dates and unique names?Does it mean I have to use cross tab queries?

I am trying to develop a page where users can click on alphabets to look for a company name that starts with the selected letter.
Searching through the forums i came across the method of using DoCmd.
alpha = Request.QueryString("alp")
if alpha <> "" then
DoCmd.ApplyFilter "", "[com_name] Like ""[" & alpha & "]*"""
end if
The 'alpha' variable here holds the alphabet selected by user from another page. However, I'm getting an error message saying
Microsoft VBScript runtime (0x800A01F4)
Variable is undefined: 'DoCmd'
Initially i tried the usual filtering
if alpha <> "" then
rs.Filter = "com_name LIKE " & alpha
end if
The pages are suppose to display records in 10s. But instead of showing only the records of company starting "A" (example) it shows everything.
Please kindly point me to the correct direction to solve this problem.
Thank you so much.

Can someone tell me the difference between 'Call' and 'DoCmd' and how each are executed. For my level of programming, an newbie at that, I've used it interchangably so far without a problem. But I'm beginning to think that there is a difference. I don't want to later have to go back to redo my code down the line. I'm beginning to think that I've been very lucky so far in being able to use it interchangebly and my luck will run out soon.:eek:

I need to execute an append query from my vba code but I have to pass in a parameter. I can't set the parameter equal to a form control. I have to actually pass in a value. I don't want to use a querydef because I don't have any result sets.
Any help would be great.
