Hiya,
Just wondering if anyone knows how i go about deleting an excel sheet and then add a new one with specific headers ?
I have spent 3 hours looking round this site with no luck either I am blind or you cannot do what I am asking.
Cheers
I am trying to connect to excel from Access database. Once I make the connection I want to delete data from a range on a specific sheet. There are 4 columns on the spreadsheet but i wouldn't know how many rows. So for example, A150... but I may not know what the last row is. How would I be able to delete data from a range of columns to the last row?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have 2 table currently linked together using a one to many relation. Rather than manually updating the information each day in table 2, i want the same format of data but using a linked excel sheet. This way the information can just be updated elsewhere by the excel sheet. I can't seem to get the sheet to link in the one to many way though, just intermediate. Is this possible?
Thanks.
I have an Excel sheet that I'd like to bring into an Access Form -- populate the Excel cells with data from textboxes on the Access Form and print it. I tried copy/pasting various things in, but it's pasting even text from a cell as an Excel object (let alone joined cells and images). Where can I find more information about this?
I found http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=210288
But, when I put that code into the form for saving text from a text box to an Excel cell, it tells me that the word "Set" is a "Compile error: Invalid outside procedure."
Also, how do I refer to a joined cell? I've found that I can copy from a joined cell, paste into a host cell and select "Paste Link". This puts an absolute reference to the joined cell in the host cell (=$A$7, for instance) and when I change the joined cell the host cell is changed. Pasting =$A$7 seems to merely put the face value of "=$A$7 into the host cell.
find a way to automatically copy data from an access query to a sheet in excel at the end of every month we record financial data from our database into an excel sheet for our accountants. im still designing the query to format the data exactly the way we need it, which is why im not too clear on all the details (have a meeting with the accountants on wednesday to confirm everything, but im hoping to get most of the function written by then at least)
Ive already got the pathfilename and worksheet name stored in variables (excelFile and workSheet respectively) and ive worked out a way to store the row number (in a variable called simply rowNum), i just need to add one record to that specific row, from columns B to I) and for now lets just assume the query would be qryFinancialData. simple way to export the data, ill be formatting the query so that the first field in the query will go into column B, second field will be C, third field will be D, etc.is there a quick way to open the file, add the data to the right columns/row and close/save the excel file, all through VBA?

I have written a piece of code in Access that creates a Excel work book. The work book is populated with the various data and then made visible to the user.
Everything is working perfectly apart from one minor problem.
When creating a new workbook excel automatically puts 3 worksheets in... If the code creates 1 or 2 sheets of data I want it too delete the sheet that is blank. This is easy to do although it always prompts the user for confirmation.
How do I delete a worksheet without the prompt?
I have hunted everywhere for the answer and can't find it anywhere, any help would be great.
Example of code:
Dim XL As Excel.Application
Dim WkBook As Excel.Workbook
Dim WkSheet As Excel.Worksheet
Set XL = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
Set WkBook = XL.Workbooks.Add
Set WkSheet = WkBook.Worksheets(1)
WkSheet.Delete
I have the following code which returns me the number of rows in an excel sheet:-
Lastrows = .Worksheets(1).Cells.Find(What:="*", SearchDirection:=2, SearchOrder:=1).Row
How do I mod the code to find the last 'used' row in the sheet?
The sheet is automatically generated daily, so I can't change anything in that area. It's always 2000 rows long and usually only has around 1100-1200 rows of data.
It's just that I do a for loop later on in my code for 1 to Lastrows and would like it as exact as I can.
So I have 5 querys exported to an excel file (C:/File.xlsx) using transferspreadsheet.The sheet names are named the same as the query names.Is it possible to change the sheet names (in the file C:File.xlsx) to what I want them to be named in access vba? Either after I export, or possibly change the query name before it is exported (all done in vba).Like a line I would add after transferspreadsheet like oldsheetname.name = newsheetname.Also need to find out how to change field names in the excel file to what I want in vba.

Hi all. I have an excel spreadsheet that pulls company information off of our internal system that is linked to an access database table (let's call it "General"). The General information is current and is updated within our internal system (but through the Access side will not need to be updated), however, I have a separate table (let's call it "Detail") that has information (employment, revenue numbers) that I want users to input through access. The two tables are joined through a relationship, however, b/c General is a linked table I am a) unable to assign a primary key and b) unable to edit the Detail information in a form view. I know this is related to Microsoft's limitation on excel linked table, but I was wondering if there is a way around it besides copying the General data into an access table. Would be grateful for any help!

I have a excel table (lets say the format is as follows)
col1 col2
dataset1 value1
dataset2 value2
(where col1 and col2 are the column names and dataset x and value x are the respective data values of each column) I have a access form and it has a combo box and a text box From Combo box I need to retrieve data available in col1 o excel once a particular dataset in col1 has been selected by Combo box the respective value in col2 should be displayed in text box in access form.
I was trying to create a linked table in excel to access ( I don't want to export data from excell to access since my excell sheet is getting changing time to time. so i don't need to change the access table every time)
for combo box a simple query like below works to select the col1 values from sheet 1
select col1 from Sheet1 (where Sheet1 is the linked table name in access)
I wrote a code similar to below using DLookup to get respective values from col2 however it gives a error '#Name?
=DLookup(col2,Sheet1,col1=[Forms]![FormName]![ComboBox Name])
(here sheet 1 is the linked table name in access, I didnt give the absolute path of the excell file)
this returns the above #Name?
I have a query, which looks like that:
ID Year SAP Geris
1 2008 20,00 € 5,00 €
1 2009 40,00 € 4,00 €
1 2010 60,00 € 6,00 €
2 2007 80,00 € 4,00 €
2 2008 100,00 € 8,00 €
2 2009 100,00 € 4,00 €
3 2008 1.000,00 € 1,00 €
3 2009 100,00 € 8,00 €
3 2010 2,00 € 9,00 €
4 2008 9,00 € 10,00€
So each combination has an ID. It's called the SuWID. I want to Transfer the data to a fixed Excel sheet. I wrote the following code
Dim xlApp As Object ' Excel.Application
Dim xlBook As Object ' Excel.Workbook
Dim xlSheet As Object ' Excel.Worksheet
Dim rst As DAO.Recordset
Set xlApp = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
xlApp.Visible = True
[Code] ....
The only Thing what i still want to have is that, before it opens the Excel form, which works already perfectly well, that a msgbox will Show up and ask me, which SuWID do you want to see in the Excel sheet.
I am looking to export my listbox values to a single workbook BUT a new sheet is created per export. There are 6 listboxes in total and I already have the code to export a single listbox but if I try to use this code its going to overwrite the csv each time .
Code:
Dim i As Integer
Dim n As Integer
Dim strLine As String
Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set a = fs.CreateTextFile("D:DatabaseHomeExportCombinedHrs.csv", True)
[Code] ....
I have a database that links to an excel sheet and take data from it. For a fail safe i put deletes in several places in case of user error to make sure the sheet is deleted. If it is already deleted the other deletes don't act well.
I need to write a conditional iff statement that if it doesn't exist it ignores the delete call. Not sure how to structure it.
Private Sub Command3_Click()
DoCmd.DeleteObject acTable, "Sheet1"
DoCmd.Close acForm, "District Select Form"
End Sub
What I am trying to do is EXPORT a query to an Excel Workbook which is read only and I need the data to land in a specific sheet in the excel workbook.
I have tried transferspreadsheet vbcode etc. but nothing works quite right and the fact the spreadsheet is Read Only does not work.
The Name of the Query is "Accrual"
The Name and location of the Excel Spreadsheet is "c:register.xls"
The Sheet inside the workbook is called "data".
I need the data to land in the "data" sheet over the top of the previous data and not create a new sheet or mess with the formulas that are linked to the "data" sheet.
What I am trying to do is populate the specific fields on excel sheet based on access query. so say I have 3 separate fields Name, Job, Salary on excel sheet (already designed excel sheet). and my access query has all 3 fields pulled up for all employees. Now if a person selects his "Name" on access form person should be able to see prepopulated excel sheet with his name, job and salary. I know I have to go recordset path.
View 1 Replies View RelatedIs there anyway I could import an excel spreadsheet to access to update an existing table? The table was created before and I'd like certain columns to be updated with certain rows from a spreadsheet.
View 4 Replies View RelatedHi,
I have been importing excel spreadsheets succesfully for a long time now and this new problem I have never seen before. I don't know how to deal with it. I have had a look on here but could find nothing similar, I have not really had a any luck searching google, mainly because I am at wits end to find a suitable search term.
Here's what's happening:
When i upload the sheet as is, it works fine, bar a "data conversion error" for one column which contains mainly numbers but a few cells of letters.
as before, I have inserted a line at the top of the spreadsheet (below the column headings), and put a 1 in for each numeric column and a letter for each alphanumeric and text based column.
Now when i import to access, I get no conversion error, but access has inlcuded about 20'000 blank lines between the headings and the actual data.
I really don't know what is going on.
I need to import an excel sheet containing updated tickets to my access ticket database. They have unique IDs in the form of a "Ticket ID" field.
I could just use an append query to add the new tickets to my database, but there are some changes on the excel side to tickets that already exist in access as well. What would be the easiest way to facilitate this import and overwrite all tickets with matching Ticket IDs to the new ones contained in the excel file?
I already have the excel file imported into it's own table, so it's a matter of updating my main table off of this temporary table containing the excel tickets. The field names are the same across both tables, it's just a matter of updating the info contained in them.
This will need to be repeated for multiple different excel files, so the easier the better!
I have an excel sheet that I want to import, it has 3 rows at the top which are titles that I don't want. Can I miss these rows out using the standard import function or do I need to write a custom VBscript ?

How to open MS Excel from a MS Access database (plenty online really) but then select a worksheet and a row in the excel sheet (can't find anything)?
I also need to open MS Access from the Excel worksheet and I was hoping to use
Code : Set oApp = CreateObject("Access.Application")
however it seems Access 2010 does not support this ...
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.
