I have sort of a loaded question. I have some code that is taking a bunch of records returned from a text box value which is running a query. The results are placed in a List Box. I then have a button set that grabs the returned records and exports them to a Specific Excel File.
1. Can I set the text size so that the imported text is automatically set to size 9?
2. Can I set it up so that the imported records start at row 3? Leaving the first two rows blank.
3. And Finally, can I preset a few column widths?
I appreciate any help in advance.....thanks for all your help up to this point....it is very appreciated.
I am looking to export a table to excel from access. I would like to order the transaction category column in a specific order(round trip air far, parking, lodging etc),. I have a button that runs a make query table and exports it to excel. I would like the rows to be in the order of transactions category. What code would I need in the button to make this order correct?
I have attached some code below.
Private Sub ExportDebitsButton_Click() Dim oApp As Excel.Application Dim oWB As Excel.Workbook Dim i As Integer Dim dbs As DAO.Database Dim rst As DAO.Recordset
When exporting from Acces to Excel numbers formatted to one decimal in Access are displayed with two decimals in Excel. How can I get them to export to one decimal? I know I can reformat them in Excel but I'd rather have it work automatically.
hi guys. i am just new with ms access and vba.. i am currently using ms access 2003. i want to export my reports to an excel file so i did a code like this:
Code:Private Sub cmdActiveListByEmployeeID_Click()On Error GoTo Err_cmdActiveListByEmployeeID_ClickDoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport, "AlphaListing", acFormatXLS, , TrueExit_cmdActiveListByEmployeeID_Click: Exit SubErr_cmdActiveListByEmployeeID_Click: MsgBox Err.Description Resume Exit_cmdActiveListByEmployeeID_ClickEnd Sub
the problem is that when the reports are being exported, data such as dates are not displayed properly on excel. the dates are converted into texts. fonts do also vary. how can i be able to format the excel spreadsheet so that the reports will be shown properly?
I've posted this question in the Excel Forum, but maybe it's better suited here. I need some help with an excel file that is created from an Access Query. I’ve managed to create a button on my form that creates the .xls file and open excel, but the formatting is wrong. I need to define the columns in date and time format so that the created file looks right. I’ve already tried one suggestion to change the default .xls file to be the format I need, but that didn’t help. Is there any way to do that? I really appreciate any help I can get. Cheers. -Tom
Hi all the problem i am facing is that the table exported by ACCESS to EXCEL is without any kind of formatting, bold text italics etc. , is there any way i can make access export the excel file with bold column headings and the cells having solid borders(basically any formating i wish to give). Each time i export the table i have to open excel and format the spreadsheet giving headings highlighting stuff and all and it is very troublesome so i did make a macro in EXCEL for it but i still need to open the file in Excel and run the macro. is there some way to run that macro during the export process so that the user just gets the file in the format he/she wishes. thanks for you help in advanc
I am exporting data from the database to an excel sheet. Then I want to apply conditional formatting to the data so values between a certain range should be a certain colour.
But nothing happens when applying the conditional format, or when just trying to fill a cell in excel. Only when repeatedly clicking fill cell in excel does the colour change. Also all the cells are in the number format.
I have a process that is getting data from sharepoint page, containing 2 list. Both list contain one field I am having issues in my export, a 'Multiple Lines of Text' type field which is Rich Text in sharepoint. I have an access DB with a linked table to those 2 list. Access show the one field I am having problems with as Memo.
The Linked table pulls/display the rich text data field correctly. My access query pulls/displays the data correctly.
My export procedure does not, the cell it exports to includes the HTML Tags. How can i modify my VBA export procedure to export to excel in plain text, i dont need the same format, just want to drop the html tags.
Code: Public Sub StatusReportExport() On Error Resume Next ' Test to see if the file currently exist, if so, delete file, so new file can be written. Kill ("L:Connect SiteStatus Report " & Year(Date) & "-" & Month(Date) & "-" & Day(Date) & ".xls") If Dir("L:Connect SiteStatus Report " & Year(Date) & "-" & Month(Date) & "-" & Day(Date) & ".xls") <> "" Then MsgBox "Status Report.xls File already in use!" & vbNewLine & "Please Close File, then rerun Report."
I have an excel spreadsheet with 8 tabs. They are all in the same format and column order. They are employees grouped by region. My ultimate goal is to merge all of these onto one excel tab, relatively instantly. I created a master tab and tried doing array formulas and Vlookups, it worked but my spreadsheet was way too slow.
My solution? Import and link them to an Access database, step complete. Create an XML export then import into Excel.
My problem? The only way to update the excel tab with the combined tabs is to save the excel file after changes, go back into Access, re-export to XML, then go back into excel and refresh the data.
My questions, is there any way to automate this process to the point that I can change excel, save, then hit refresh on my excel tab with the XML import to auto-update?
hi all, first time poster, with an awkward question.
i'll save you my life story but suffice to say i'm just 3 weeks into a 6mnt work placement from college and i could do with a bit of help.
the company i'm working with has to generate an xml document (preferably with access) corresponding to this schema (http://www.ros.ie/schemas/eusavings/v1/schema.xsd)
the problem so far as i can make out is that when i import this xsd into ms access - i'm presented with a rediculous number of tables and in turn these are not related, i.e. there is nothing to say that the e-mail address table is associated with the header table. (having them in one table makes more sense to me, but i'm not an expert, all i know is i have to comply with this xsd.)
when the data is exported to xml format, it's meant to look like this:
everyone in this company is completely new to xml and seeing as i have a little experience with it from college i've got quite a bit of pressure on me to try and make this work.
so, my question is: how would i go about exporting data from access into a xml document which conforms to the xtd, and looks like the xml code above?
is access capable of doing this?
they want this solved programatically, but nobody here knows how to do it.
can anyone offer guidelines on how to tackle this? any help would be really appreciated, i'm in over my head
Need to confirm whether the Default formatting option in the Conditional formatting Dialog won't work in datasheet view of a form. Please note that all conditional criteria are working fine but not the Default Formatting option - only in the Datasheet view (In Single Form view the default formatting is working fine)
My question is two fold. First, I have an Access Report that lists the training due dates of my people. What I need to do is have the cells highlight when they are due/comming due. My guess was with conditional formatting. I have tried the Excel version of that without success.
My second is for the same report. I need to find out percentage of how many people are still current for this training.
Thank you in advance, Military guy in need, Sarge_Rob
I've been put in charge of setting up a database for work which stores statement and invoice information.
I'm just wondering how I can auto format a field. I'm guessing it's in the "Validation" section.
A statement is a collective of invoices for each month. So each March '05 Statement will contain all March '05 Invoices
Basically, what I would like it to be able to do (:)) is for the date inputed into the database, it creates it's own "statementnumber".
Eg. March '05 will create a number as 305 for example. 3 being the month, 05 being the year. Because I need a common number to setup a relationship of One-to-Many. Just wondering if this was possible.
I hope someone can help me here because I'm pulling my hair out... Anyway... Basically I'm trying to save and retrieve a UK date (dd/mm/yyy) to an Access database using asp. The database resides on a server located in the US
Things I've tried so far:
-- Specifiying Session.LCID both in Global.asa and individual ASP pages
-- Using Custom formatting to format date before entering into database (using SPLIT function)
-- Using custom formatting to format date AFTER retreiveing from database
The problem is that the date seems to change how it's stored in the database. If I entered "16/02/1982", it would be saved in teh database as '02/16/1982".. but if I entered "03/04/2005" it would save it as this.. So fomatting after retreiveing the date from the DB just messes everything up!
Does anyone have any ideas how to solve this other than moving to a UK server?
I am making a planner in the access 2010 report. I am showing which activity finished when but I also want to highlight/ shade the cell to the corresponding month on the planner to the right. See picture above. I tried conditional formatting with date rage 1/1/2014 and 31/1/2014 but it does not gives me accurate result.
These days more and more of my databases are wanting to be accessed via the web as well as from MS Acess. I guess this is the norm these days but in most of our (office) dbs it's just 'web for web's sake' and there is no real need to access it outside of Ms Access.
Bu hey that's what they want...
Problem with one such db is that a lot of the fields are memo fields and hold a LOT of text and they want to create MS Access reports/PDFs as well as have nicely formatted html for the text on the web pages.
I seem to be able to cater for one or the other but not both.
1. I can leave the memo fields as raw text and the reports/PDFs look fine with the report formatting, but on the web page there is no formatting and the text ends up in one block paragraph with no formatting.
2. Use a html control for the hmemo fields and store all the html tags within it. The web page looks nicely formatted but the html tags will show up in the PDFs!
I've tried various tag stripping tools but they seem to give unpredictable results.
I also don't want to just dump the PDFs on the web, as they will be static and it's just plain lazy! (too many unnecessary PDFs on the web IMO)
I have a button on a access database form that runs a query and exports the data to an excel sheet that remains open. I am ok with this. What I would like to do now is format the sheet and then save it as a file name that is the same as the query name but adding the date at the end. Here is what I have so far:
Private Sub Command1_Click() On Error GoTo Err_Command1_Click Dim stDocName As String stDocName = "Qry_SentForProcessing" DoCmd.OpenQuery stDocName, acNormal, acEdit DoCmd.RunSavedImportExport "Export-Qry_SentForProcessing"
[code]....
I just want to add the code to this button. Or do I need to write a function as a module, then call the function after the export is run.

I have a table in access and I need to format it so that when column "Status" = "Closed" column "Closed" = "yes". so it will automatically mark column "Closed" "yes" if "status" says "closed". Instead of having to change both columns all the time.I know how to do that in MS Excel, but is it possible in MS Access 2013?
My new and previous laptops are both 64 bit and installed MA 2010 on both of the computers running win 8.
When I run reports on my new laptop the reports are not formatting. They are reflecting on 4 pages and not on 1 page like on my previous laptop running the same programs.
On my new laptop I installed Office 2013 and old one office 2010 but I used the same Access 2010 on both laptops which is a separate disk as office was not the professional one.
I have a continuous subform with a fairly complex snapshot query as its record source. I have controls on the main form to allow criteria parameters for the query and a command button to requery the subform based on the selected criteria. I also have conditional formatting on a number of the continuous controls in the subform (the conditions are fairly straightforward, i.e. highlight if null, true/false etc)
When the subform is (re)queried, it seems to repaint several times (3 or 4 although it appears arbitrary to me) before it eventually settles. And it really louses up the aesthetics as controls flicker between colours; sometimes I even lose the background colour on parts of the detail section, or controls disappear altogether. And this continues as I scroll down the subform (or even click anywhere on it)
I don't mind that the query itself takes some time to run - of the order of a few seconds each time - but I'd prefer for the screen to wait until the query is completed, and all of the CF applied, before refreshing itself, instead of 'sweeping' top to bottom repeatedly. It's a snapshot query so once it's run, there should be no changes to the dataset.
I've tried Application.Echo but it has no effect whatsoever.
Using Access 2010, I have a subform in datasheet view and I want to set the font size to 10pt. Setting font sizes for datasheet fields in the Format tab does not change the font size displayed.
I understand that the font size can be set using VBA (for example: Me.DatasheetFontHeight=10). Where do I put this code for it to work in a) a single datasheet b) all datasheets in the db?
