Customize Date Report When Exporting Data To Excel Format
Aug 18, 2015
I have a form that shows the data.All the date format display this kind of format " 12/17/1974".But when I export it to excel format.The date is displayed as "17-Dec-74".However, when i double click on the cell ,it will show "12/17/1974"...I want the date to displayed in excel -> "17-Dec-1974" or "dd-mmm-yyyy" how can i change the date format when manually formatting the date in excel .
Once I have an Access report in the preview on the screen, I "export" it to Excel, using the built in Menu Symbol Option (analyse in Excel). It exports all the columns of the report perfectly, except for Dates. Here it doesn't just change the format - but shows ######## in the Excel column. When I click in the cell,it says "Negative Dates and Numbers are shown as ####". Any way I can stop this happening? I don't mind what format the date is in, in Excel, as long as it's readable! Thanks a lot Marion
The code works great, however, I will be making this available to several users who will use access from differenct PCs. In order for them to get the data passed to their respective desktops, they would have to change the Me.txtfilePath.Value in the properties manaually. This is currently in the Row.Source for an unbound text box. I would prefer them not messing with that. The current value is ="C:Documents and Settings’User_ID’Desktop" where the User_ID (varies from user to user) would need to be changed. Can this be done with a variable setting that would prompt the user for their User_ID and then execute to the appropriate desk top. I am a VBA novice and would appreciate any help at all.
FDL00.... should be generated automatically, starting with 101 for 1st container and 201 for 2nd and so forth. The output should be in vertical manner.
When I export a report to Excel, a memmo field is truncated to 256 characters. If I export the query behind the report, the memmo field is exported correctly. Is there a way to export an Access 2003 report to Excel and maintain all of the data and report formating in memmo fields?
I using excel 2010 and access 2010. I have VBA script runtime error 3011 when running script. It has problem finding access report. First I was passing in as variable with the name. Then I used a script to pull in the report name from access and it is still failing with same error.
Code is shown below.
Private Sub Command29_Click() Dim reportname As String Dim theFilePath As String, FilePath As String, tempStr As String ' reportname = Me.My_DBTableName
I am using Access 97 & Excel 97 for this problem. I have a Access query which takes the contents of three tables and exports them to Excel. However, the query has now reach 69000+ records and increases by about 1000+ records ever month. So what I need to do is create as many WORKSHEETS within a single Excel WORKBOOK as necessary to accomodate all of my Access data. I have written a piece of code which will create seperate WORKBOOKS for each 65000+ of records but then what I want to do is code the almagamation of these WORKBOOKS into 1.
In short, after the first WORKBOOK is created I use code to make that the active WORKBOOK and then I want to import into that the other WORKSHEETS in the other WORKBOOKS.
I am using the folowing DIM's:
Dim X As New Excel.Application Dim WkBook As Excel.WorkBook Dim WkSheet As Integer Dim ExcelSheet As Excel.Worksheet
ExcelSheet therefore is the current WORKSHEET within the Excel spreadsheet I want to import into.
Any advice on the command to perform a transfer of WORKSHEET data between Excel WORKBOOKS?
When equipment is returned to our company the details are put into an access database, then the same details are filled into a excel sheet to be printed and handed around for other depments to fill in by hand then sign. I have been asked to see if it is possible to alter the database so that the appropriate parts of the excel sheet could be filled in automatically. You can see an example below, its only the sales section that comes from the database the rest is filled in by hand.
Is it possible to setup a query that would ask for say the RER number and serial number to find the correct record then export the data to fill in the right cells; or is it easier for me to try and recreate the excell sheet as an access report and have it filled in that way.
My report (rptBilling_STS_Summary) has three subreports (rptBilling_STS_Summary_Install, rptBilling_STS_Summary_Rental, rptBilling_STS_Summary_LDRate) that return values that are grouped by customer and calculates a total for each customer.
I need the report to export to excel for our client but every attempt has produced a blank XLS file. I have tried every export method I can think of. This is what I have tried:
Export button from external data ribbon Export from print preview Export via macro Export via VBA (DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport, "rptBilling_STS_Summary", acFormatXLS, , False, , , acExportQualityPrint)
All this has produced the same blank excel file... Very frustrating...
I have searched and found a lot of information on 2007 and it requiring sp2 but all I can find on 2010 is instructional information.
Update: I copied the database to my local PC and when I export the XLS file it opens in protected view.

Hi guys, this might be a quickie, I did a quick search but couldn't find anything :/
Basically my database creates a table which some people would rather analyse within excel because they're not comfortable with access. I can get the table exporting to an xls file no problem, howeevr what I would like is for the database to export the file and open the file in excel at the same time so the user doesn't need to open up excel and find the file etc...
I have a beautiful report and when printed straight from access it has nice gridlines and even gridlines null fields (which I want). However when I export to excel all the fancy gridlines and bold fonts are lost. Is there a way I can get it to export to excel what I can print in access? I would like to be able to export to excel to add some extra rows before printing but not have to do all the formatting.
I've tried printing to word, same problem as excel. Tried printing a pdf and it looks exactly the same but I can't edit it to add the extra blank rows.
I have always been wondering why this happens, and now I have a problem with it.
When I export a Table/Query from Access to Excel (be it with Right CLick -> Export...or TransferSpreadsheet) there is an apostrophe character (') appended to the front of some/each cell in Excel. You cannot see it immediately, but when you click on the cell, there is this character. WHY? Does anyone else have experience in this? :confused:
I have made a access database which captures new booking information and i then want to export this to a pre-existing excel doc which has formulas in which will work out how long it took my team to process it.
So my question really is to see if it possible to just keep adding data to an excel doc that i have created?
I am able to use DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet to export data from Access to Excel, however, I want to be able transfer data into a specific sheet within an Excel template (e.g. Tasking.xls), that will then save under a different name (e.g. Tasking 20140429.xls). The other sheets within the Excel template contain pivots etc. so they will need updating during this process. The Excel template should just close down and remain in its original format.
This process will occur once a week so the dates will have to change accordingly.
In Access i can create different contracts with different running time.
I have contracts with a running time of 4 years, 6years, 8 years, 10 years and 12 years.
I have for each contract a different Excel file.
The users can choose via an Inputbox, which contract he wants to Export in Excel. In the Inputbox he enters the SuWID.
Now i want that the the Excel file with the Special running time get opened.
4 years ----> ("C:UsersGRIMBENDesktop4years.xlsm") 6 years ----> ("C:UsersGRIMBENDesktop6years.xlsm")
and so on.
Code: Dim xlApp As Object 'Excel.Application Dim xlBook As Object 'Excel.Workbook Dim xlSheet As Object 'Excel.Worksheet Dim rst As DAO.Recordset, SuWID As Long, tmpStr As String
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 am trying to export certain values which are in combo box of MS Access to excel sheet. But what's happening is its populating ID of the field instead of Field Name.
