I'm new to this forum so please excuss me if my question isn't in the right format.
I'm trying to export a database to a progam by the name of AA Planer.
I did a google on the phrase "access exprort AA Planner" and I got web page that said to "export the data in CVS format where Exel would acept it." So that brought me to the asumtion to export the data in CVS to import it to AA Plannner. Would I be right in making that asumtion.
Hi all,
I have an access Db that I use to manage contacts etc. I regularily send out newsletters and emails to the contacts in that Db.
I want to know if there is a way I can essentially track the emails from access in outlook.
eg. based on field "email" it can see the emails incoming and outgoing in Outlook and makes a new record in my table "communications" that also tracks phone calls and other comm's.
Tbls - Contacts, Communications, Company
It would be great if all email communications could just automatically be listed in the access table communications with a link to the email in outlook (not the actual email, only the subject line and a hyperlink to the email)
I have been scouring the web for something to do this and have found lots of kinda's or not quite's. I don't want to import my outlook email to a table if possible.
I run Outlook and Access 2003 (Office 2003) on XP SP2 box.
Thanks Heaps if you have any idea what I am after!

I am trying to create an ODBC link to a copy of the Northwind data base.I am running Win7 on a 64 bit operating system but am keeping office running as 32 bit for Access, Excel , Visio etc due to the fact that I have a lot of old apps tied to them.
When I attempted initially to create a new system DSN ODBC connection it only allowed me to use SQL drivers. (No plurry good) So after some searching I found out that I could use a file in C:WindowsSysWOW64 called "odbcad32.exe" which has allowed me to view /use the total list of drivers to import data.So I can set up a DNS ODBC named Northwind1 and I can access the database without problems using Excel.However if I try to use the same ODBC link in Access to connect to Northwind1 I get the following error message:"You cannot use ODBC to import from export to, or link an external ?Microsoft Access or ISAM database table to your database".
Hello,
Does anyone knows how can I export the export/import specifications (which file/directory) and how can I import/export the specifications between different versions of Access. Thanks!
I need to develop the automatization for my firm. The first stepp is the calendar planner. I am completly new in access and I have some questions:
To show you what I need I did it in excel sheet that you can see here:
http://www.speedyshare.com/619380497.html
So, I need all my data distributed in days separated by the line between them. I don't want to have the same date repeatedly written. If you go to T1...T5 fields you will see that there is a meny for names and in the last fields yes/no option to choose.
How can I do a table like that in acces with lines and menus?
I tried to create the table and put for eg. the field of time that has to be separated from the field of date. But there if I choose the time, i have to put Date/time format that forces me also to put the date in the same field with time. How can I do that? Many thanx!
hi,
I'm having a small but annoying problem exporting data to excel and then importing it back..
The problem is that when i export a table to Excel - it changes the date format from dd/mm/yy (which is what i have in Access) to DD-MMM-YY (automatically in Excel)
This proves to be a problem because when i import the spreadsheet back Access gives me a data type conversion error.
Its easily solved manually by changing the field in excel to dd/mm/yy format but annoying as the user will have to do this everytime they export and import!
Any suggestions??
Thanks in Advance..
Who can help me out?? :confused:
I am looking for 2 scripts
1) for exporting an existing table with data to an seperate MDB file
(filename to be given by user using a dialogbox)
2) importing the MDB file (from question 1) back into the existing table in
the original database. Script does not have to worry for dublicate data.
I would like to automate this daily process: In this order import or link, (not sure which is the best option) a fixed width table, add an ascending number to the end of each of the records, reverse the order, and finally export to fixed width .txt documents depending on the quantities in one field. There would be 3 text files exported, max.

Is there a way to move import/export specifications from one database to another?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI created a DB to track soldier information. Each month reports are due to Brigade. Each Company and Battalion has there own version of the DB. What I need to do is export data from the Company then import it to the Battalion. Then I need to export the info from the Battalion and import them into the Brigade. This information is either all new for a new soldier or updated info for an existing record for an existing soldier. I need to update all new changes to the info. What is the best method for doing this.
Also, when I try to export a .dbf, it pops up with an error saying there are duplicate field names. Im confused because ieach field name is unique.
Thanks for any help I can get.

Ok,
I'm new to a particular access database that is having problems.
Basically, it is using transfertext to transfer a database to another file, at least as far as I know.
Unfortunately, it's hanging, and as best as I can guess, its because something in the export specification file is not quite right.
Can anyone offer me an explanation of how to edit an import or export specification file? The MS help seems to indicate that it stored in the database, but I haven't been able to locate the file that is specified in the vba code. Nor did I see it elsewhere in the folder where the database is stored.
Any help is appreciated.

I have a database witch includes a continuous form (named frmExport). It could be very useful for me if i can find a way so to export data from access 2007 and then to import them into a word file.
Please note: The access data will be inserted into word table.
I have a few problems and I want them to be able to be done from switchboard:
1. Is there a way for me to export a particular report (after selecting it) to a closed excel template, that is formatted? It would open the excel template (that has a logo and column headings), export data to below the column headings, then save the file with a unique name?
2. Also, a way to import data from an excel file, after allowing the user to select file? Only data below the column headings mentioned above. Same data will be appended to existing table.
Hello everyone.
I've been in a new position for a new company for less than three weeks, and I need some help.
The Access database that we use has been in operation since 2002, and it has never been Compacted/Repaired (I asked my coworkers and supposed IT people, and they said "what's that?").
After adding *one* new field, I've reached the horrific "error 3190" (max 255 fields).
I've tried all of the following, allowing at least 12 hours for them to run, but I cannot:
export the data to Excel
import the data into a new database
copy/paste the records (because there are 12100+ and the max is 9500, I think; and because of the way the dd/mm/yy converted itself to dd/mm/yyyy)
or rename the table with the data.
Please, someone help me.
I am creating a ImportExportData macro that will link to my tables in the BE
However the BE has a password. I was told this would require coding.
I have even tried to 'convert macro to VB' and i get this:
Code:
DoCmd.TransferDatabase acLink, "Microsoft Access", "c: est.accdb", acTable, "Table1", "Table1", False
I then tried to enter the password in the last segment (StoreLogin) ie:
Code:
DoCmd.TransferDatabase acLink, "Microsoft Access", "c: est.accdb", acTable, "Table1", "Table1", False, "PASSWORD"
but that didn't work either, i got a "An expresiions you entered is the wrong data type for one of the arguments"...
How to Export and Import data into and from Access using a Quicken Interchangeable Format (QIF) ...
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm building a data base for my company, which is composed of items we sell. I then need these records to populate our pricebooks, which are excel worksheets, under multiple workbooks.
So essentially, I would like to have all the fields separated by vendor, series and series items, then populate the proper Excel worksheet (within a supplier's workbook). I have the know how to build a query to narrow down a particular vendor/series/groupofitems, but I don't want to be creating an enormous list of queries which have to be run each time.
I also have the know how to create a joined table which pulls the item list into the proper group, creating one large table with every vendor, series, and items. But what I'm looking for is some type of hybrid, which will allow me to export all of the items to their corresponding worksheets in one fell swoop. This will be done regularly as prices from suppliers change, certain colors are discontinued, sizes added, etc.
I'm guessing when I use the query which creates the large table with all the product that it's indexed, and that I would be able to use this to then import the data into excel/export the data to excel. But I'm not sure about this.
I want to make a database of diseases (need to learn them for school and would like a serchable database on my smart phone for future reference).
Unfortunately spent a lot of time making hundreds of pages of word tables before i realized a database would be better. See attached image or pdf. Is there a way to import the tables to Access?
I need to preserve the hierarchic info in the nested bullet point lists. E.g. under treatment i might have a point called Acute treatment, with sub-levels, Step 1, Step 2, etc. with their own sub-levels. I need to maintain this relational hierarchic info.
Hi all,
Forgive me if this is in the wrong forum.
I have a colleague who has a problem where Access 2003 crashes every time they try to export a table to Excel 2003. It doesn't matter what mdb is used Access crashes.
Any help?

Hi, just a quick question. Is there any way of exporting say a query, or a range of quieries to another seperate access database file? ie. create a new database in code?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI would like to export a access report to excel. All rows and columns exported correctly except from text fields (missing or change to a strange number). I've also think about to write a vb script to export the result recordset of the report to the excel.

Good morning all,
First, I know there have been a lot of posts on this topic already, and I've printed out several of them to try to help me solve my problem. However, I'm having a problem getting mine to work.
Here's what I want to do, I am trying to export four different queries into one workbook, separate worksheets in Excel. For example, I have qryControl, qryLocal, qryPar and qryNasco. I want to export qryControl into the CONTROL worksheet in General Ledger.xls, qryLocal into the LOCAL worksheet in General Ledger.xls, and so on and so forth. Can this be done?
I started a practice form and added a command button based on some of the information I read before, just to see if I can get a query to transfer period and I ran into some problems. Here is the code I used:
Private Sub Command0_Click()
DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acExport, acSpreadsheetTypeExcel8, "qryWorldWideClaims", "C: emp.xls", True
'Create Excel Instance
Dim xlObj As Object
Set xlObj = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
'Open the template file
xlObj.workbooks.Open "C:mytemplatefile.xls"
'Save the template file with another name
xlObj.activeworkbook.savesas "C:mynewfile.xls"
'Open the temp file we exported from Access
xlObj.workbooks.Open "C: emp.xls"
'Select and copy all the data
xlObj.activeworkbook.cells.select
xlObj.activeworkbook.selection.copy
'Re-activate the destination file
xlObj.workbooks("mynewfile.xls").Activate
'Select cell A1 on the first sheet
xlObj.activeworkbook.sheets(1).range("A1").select
'Paste the data
xlObj.activesheet.paste
'Save and close the file
xlObj.activeworkbook.Save
xlObj.activeworkbook.Close
'Close the other file - assumes no other Excel files are open
xlObj.activeworkbook.Save
xlObj.actoveworkbook.Close
xlObj.Quit
Set xlObj = Nothing
End Sub
I get an error message at the following line:
xlobj.activeworkbook.saveas "C:mynewfile.xls"
The error is:
'Runtime Error 438' Object doesn't support this property or method.
Can somebody please tell me if I can export to four different worksheets in the same workbook and also what I need to do to resolve my error.
Thanks every body!
Hi -
I have a client that would like to export an news email list from their Access database into an SQL database that we use to send newsletter emails.
Does anyone know of a simple way to;
a: Export a table of data from Access to a csv file automatically.
b: have an SQL database look for a updates to the csv and import all - or all new data into a table in SQL
Any tips would be grateful - I know the task here sounds over complicated but my client does not have the budget to redesign their Access database into SQL, I have CRON running on the same server as the Access database, this could be a handling method for the automation, but I'm not sure if again I am over complicating things here myself, and Access / SQL have the capabilities of doing these things independantly.
Many thanks for reading.
