Would it be possible for me to build an interface for a customer to use for importing data. So that they customer could choose from a drop down list, or input into a text box where they want to export from, and where they would like the export to be imported?
Hi: I want to automate the XML export function of Access and not sure if it is possible or how to do it. In going through the menu bar (File ->Export) interface, I must choose the root table, and then subsequent tabbed windows allow one to select what tables to be exported, if I want the schema to be generated, the target filename, etc. Instead of having to go through this large selection process, I'd like to write a script that I can run consistently over the same tables, produce the same file name, etc. Can anybody provide a suggestion/code/pointer on how to accomplish this? Thanks in advance. John
Hi all, I'm using access 2002. 2002 has pivoting, but in order to use it you have to download an xp add on(at least I did). After I installed the libraries pivots worked for me- and I added all manner of niftyness-before I discovered that no one else in my department could use it without adding the same downloads. So I decided to go with exporting to excel. That opened up a whole new can of worms, but in the end I finally got it working. I just wanted to share what I found with everyone here-maybe the next person won't have to work so hard. This code works from a toolbar button. Of course if anyone has any suggestions, I'm interested.

I've created an outlook task to export a common query I do every day, is there a way to automate it so it will happen automatically without me pressing Run?
I use office 2007 on a company laptop with tight network restrictions (so no Windows Task Scheduler)..
I have to import a table into a government database. I've got the data lined up in a table and exported to csv. The problem is that the government database doesn't allow empty fields, or the commas created by empty fields. The empty fields are create by criteria that changes with each employee. Is there a way to get rid of them without manually deleting them? I would imagine there is but can't find anything about it or maybe I don't see the forest for the trees? Sample csv below with surplus commas.
I have inherited 1000 records which need to fit into new criteria selected from combo boxes and to do this individually by the forms will take forever so i want to copy and paste the data in the table, but when I do it doesn't fill in the form.
This may be a problem with the cascading script in the form as the fields fill in when I press f9 but disappear every time I open the form.Finally I eventually want to export the data as a table but displaying the text value rather than the key value.
I regularly export the main table in our database to an excel spreadsheet, to provide an additional level of data back-up. (Using File/Export)
I was wondering if there is a way of automating this process, either through a command button on a form, or by linking it with shutting the database down.
I have created about 7 tables in Access, which all have the same column names. I want to export all of the table's data at the same time into a Excel SpreadSheet using VBA.
Also I want specify where i want the data to go in the SpreadSheet e.g. All data will be exported to cell A4.
Trying to get a record entered into a field on table (a) to automatically enter into same field on table (b).Example: Plant database table, input record in plant name field.

Hello... I am trying to export an Access table to a csv file. I have several fields in the table that are type double and go to 3 decimal places. When I export the data, it truncates it to 2 decimal places. I changed the table design from "Auto" decimal places to 3. and that didn't help. When I am in the Table Export wizard, it shows all 3 decimal places, but when I look at the text file, it's only 2. Anybody ever have this problem? Thanks in advance! Greg
If I want to duplicate just a table, I can easily select "structure only" under paste options. Is there an easy way to do the same thing for an entire database (tables, queries, etc.) all at once?
In short, someone has a database. They're willing to share the database itself, but not necessarily its contents. The database has a user interface, so the people who use the database don't necessarily know much about Access. Therefore, I can ask them to follow a few basic, built-in Access menu options, but can't ask them to do something manually, such as copying the entire file and then manually emptying the tables. This seems like something that should be easy, but I can't find it. Any help?
i have access 2013 and when i try to export data to excel with "Analyze data in excel" when the file is open i excel i get this error message file error: some data may have been lost". (and a whole row has not been export)
i tried to fix this file with excel open and repair option and i click on "extract data" but then i got this message; Excel attempted to recover your formulas and values, but some data may have been lost or corrupted. Excel found errors that may cause some recovered data to be put in the wrong cells.
I have a reasonable large dbase with some 12 tables and some 40 Queries. In three of the tables, there are fields with dubious names like AA1, CD-3, 227, etc. I want to change these field names to some more appropriate names like : Testblok , Cspeler, Jaarnummer, etc, etc.
In doing so, I will have to go thru each and every Query ( and at a later stage forms/reports) to change the fieldnames in that query corresponding to the changes I made in the initial table field name.
Would there be another way of doing this, i.e. is there a routine for changes made in the fieldnames, being “automatically updated in the table bound query.
Good morning! I'm using Access to redesign our company's electronic phonebook. Our intranet uses SharePoint technology and our IT people have cranked our security settings up pretty high, so I can't use data access pages or ASP. Therefore, I'm going to use static HTML, producing a single page which the CEO's secretary will upload once a month, allowing our 800+ employees to view the entire phonebook at once. CTRL-F is their friend.
I've managed to design a data access page that looks very much like we want it to, but I don't know how to export it to static HTML. Can such a thing be done, or am I just being wacky? If so, is there a way to automate it so the secretary can just push a button to generate the page?
I have an export function below that will export my table "Test" to an Excel Spreadsheet.
However I want it so i can choose where that data in the "Test" table will go in the Excel Spreadsheet i.e. I want to export all the data in to Cell "B2" of the SpreadSheet - at the moment it will export all the data into "A1"
Any help or ideas?

Can anyone please advise how I may be able to achieve the following?
The database in question is used to store info about members of a radio control model flying club.
I have a table (members) containing member’s personal details – names, addresses etc and a second table (club_membership) containing membership info in the Fields – year, membership_cat, insurance_cat. Each member has a record in the second table for each year they have been a member.
To simplify the renewal process (typically most members renew at the same time at our AGM) I would like to use a form which lists all members names with a check box (renew) which is checked if the member renews his/her membership. For every member checked I would like to automatically create a new record in the club_membership table for the next membership year (2007) by copying over values for the fields membership_cat and insurance_cat from their record for the previous year.
I am trying to write code in an excel worksheet to try to export excel data to a table in access.
The range in which the data is situated in excel varies. So the range address varies with the data. After a lot of searching I wrote the following code which works for a range which is fixed. The code is the following:
Dim acc As New Access.Application Range(Range("b22"), Range("b22").End(xlDown)).Select ActiveWorkbook.Names.Add Name:="ghazla", RefersTo:=Selection acc.OpenCurrentDatabase "D:PayRollFactoryJasminePayroll.accdb" acc.DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet _
[Code] .....
As one can see from the first two lines of code I am trying to first delineate the range and then to name it. The intent is to name the range "ghazla" and so to cater for the fact that the extent of data varies.
The code works with the fixed range ="Sheet2$B140". However what I need to do is to adjust the code so that I can insert "ghazla" as the range name so that this can vary.
I have a question about the best way to go about linking an excel workbook to an ms access table? I have researched hyperlinks and attachments and ole objects and I am not sure what is the best option. I believe hyperlinks will be best, because the attachments will bloat the database, but I am not sure how to go about doing that in vba? My process is such:
1)Users enter project information 2)Users enter the sample information for each project 3)The project and sample information is combined by a query 4)The user clicks a button to print forms, which runs the query and opens an excel workbook template. 5)The data is exported to a specific sheet in the workbook 6)Using vba in excel, the data is used to populate cells in different sheets depending on critera.
After all of this is accomplished, I need the user to SAVE AS the excel workbook and it needs to be "attached" to the ms access 'project' table. I am not sure what is the best way to link this back to the database. I would like to automate it with vba if possible.
I have an access query with around 10 columns. One of the columns is city. There are total of 5 unique cities. I need a macro for the button in the access report that will export the data from the access query to the ONE excel workbook in such a way that each city filtered data from access is exported to city name worksheet. So Excel file would have in total of 5 worksheets with the relevant city data.
