I would like to output them into a text file as "A0010", "N0103", "C0123"
Background is that I have set up a DB that connects to an Oracle DB and where we have an email address for a client it emails a PDF file to that client.
Prior to this emailing we used Crystal and we will continue to do so for those without email, the format above is Crystal Filter and I can copy paste the above straight into a filter blocking them from creating a printed statement.
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!
This may be a real dumb question but is there any way to view/edit an existing export specification for the transfer text macro? I'm reviewing someone else's database and can't figure out how to view it.
When I export a query to xml (MS Access) then the name of the query equals the tagname in xml. Example: when the queryname is ‘qryRegions’, the xml result is:
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
I have one workstation that errors when code get to a line where I try to export a report to an rtf file. The error message says something like 'Cannot execute export command'. It works on other workstations and I can even manually export the report to an rtf file - Any ideas?
Hey all, I'm working on an invoice system in Access and I had just wondered if there was a way I could export a form to a format I could distribute to clients? (pdf, html...etc) thanks!
Ok I am exporting some data to a plain text file and one of the fields I am outputing can vary in the number of characters and I need they to have the same number of characters all the time.
Ex: 123.00 => 000012300 456789.00 => 045678900
I had heard of a command, but I can't remember what it was...I could do a loop till LEN() = 9 but that would cause undue clock cycles (aka performance hit) on the machine when running through the export routine.
I'm trying to find a way to export the structure of a table in my Access database.
I created a new table and I want to put it in the database on my website. However, my site is constantly being used so I have no way of downloading the database, modifying it, and then uploading it again without losing some data.
I do have a database editor on my website that allows me to run queries. So If I can get a query with all of the CREATE TABLE information (all the fields, whether they are Allow Zero Length, etc.) then I can just use that.
I can't seem to find a way in Access 2000 to export the structure of the table.

I have some buttons that export the data from a form into a Word Document. It generally works but there are some issues.
I have Access 2003 but the people using it only use the runtime version of Access and the environment is Office 2000.
I have copied code from other examples and maybe missing something that is causing the issues.
1. When I export the record it is causing problems with the Normal.dot template. When I try to close Word it keeps asking me that I have modified that template. After pressing Cancel button twice it the save box disappears. 2. When I leave the code Dim objWord As word.Application I get an error message about a compile error User defined Type not defined. 2. When the users try to export a record to the specific word template I created and a required field is empty an error message is displayed and then closes the application.
Any help will be appreciated. I am a newbie when it comes to code.
Sample code is below. Private Sub Command1079_Click() Dim objWord As word.Application 'Start Microsoft Word 2000. Set objWord = CreateObject("Word.Application")
With objWord 'Make the application visible. .Visible = False
'path and name of the template your are using. ' objWord.Documents.Add ("U:Asset Strategy and Commercial PropertyCommercial PropertyTaskmasterletterofobjection.dot") .Documents.Open ("C:Documents and SettingsDadMy DocumentsWorkTaskmasterletterofobjection.dot")
'This is for the bookmark that you created in the template
Print_Reconsideration_Err: 'If a field on the form is empty, remove the bookmark text, and 'continue. If Err.Number = 94 Then .Selection.Text = "" Resume Next
End If objWord.Application.Options.PrintBackground = False objWord.Application.ActiveDocument.PrintOut

I have a table of applications (200 applications), with the following columns for each application:
AppName Description BusCrit BU NumUsers
I need to export this to an excel spreadsheet into specific rows and columns and then save the spreadsheet, with it named for the application (ie, App1.xls) which it should get from the AppName column in the table. How would I do this?
hi all, i found this forum recently and always seem to find my answers on it, this is the first time i havent.. so. firstly i am using access '97 (work is soon to upgrade to 2003 - finally).
my problem is i'm trying to export a query to txt file, which i'm doing by
the eParcelSpec i had to make via importing a text file, then on import text wizard, chose advanced, setup my field dilemeter to * and text dilemeter to none. this is saved and i can open it up going through the above process. however when my docmd runs i still get the standard output with "fieldvalue" , "fieldvalue2". instead of the * and no comma
its important for this to be the other delimeters, as the exported file is going to be used in a posting company's program that requires a certain format to import shipping address information.
also, is there anyway to add lines to before the data is exported? i need to have a start of file and end of file characters before any data and after the data.

I used this way to export data to Excel worksheets, and do some formatting on the Excel sheet
Set objXL = CreateObject("Excel.Application") objXL.Application.Workbooks.Add Set objActiveWkb = objXL.Application.ActiveWorkBook ................
It works fine. I have a question. When I run the function, suppose it takes 15 mins to export data because there are many records and calculations. During the 15 mins, if the user open the Excel file, it will break the process of export data to Excel from MS Access. So, how can I prevent the user break the process/prevent the user to open Excel worksheet?
I am making a database that will run the administrative part of a government run foreign teacher recruiting division.Running Office 2013 (and yes, it is overly bright), have used 2003,2007, 2010...I need to do mail merges, with lots of different sql's and templates. I have been using Albert Kallal's method and it works well.
However, some of my data is in THAI. And (I think) because this method exports to a .txt file first (.888) the data gets lost and shows as question marks.
Manual merge works fine.if I could export to xls in stead of .txt and use that as my merge source, that would work fine, but what part of the code would have to be changed.
Basically: - export to xls in stead of the .888 file - use the xls file as a datasource for the merge
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!
I've been asked to export an MS Access report to Excel. I'm having trouble with including subtotals, totals, etc. in the Excel sheet. I've enclosed a picture of how my report looks in Access, and was wondering if there's a way to export everything the report has into Excel......
Can anyone maybe point me in a good direction, or to a link that has info re: what I want to do?
And before anyone asks, it's for a manager who insists that everything be done in Excel, since that is what he's comfy with. Outside of that, I wouldn't be giving myself headaches, since my Access report contains everything needed.
I am trying to export the result of a query to a specific Excel sheet where I have a dynamic graph. The results are exported on a monthly basis, so I am just adding the data, and the graph reflects that. Now, I can export to excel easily enough by using the Transfer Spreadsheet method, but this creates a new worksheet, thus destroying my lovely graph. I have even tried the Output Query method, but to no avail. Is there any way I can export to excel and keep the graph intact?
HI: I've managed to export multiple linked tables to XML via the Export feature in Access. In looking at the XLM that is generated, I notice that the data that corresponds to the key field contains the key that is autogenerated. If, for example, I look at the last table in the chain, and look at the foreign key field, it contains the key number of the table that it is linked to (as it should). My question is: is there a way to have this key value inserted in a relative (referential?) format rather than an absolute format?
For example, If the foreign key (e.g. #5) in table 'B' points to primary key 5 in table 'A', instead of having '5' in the field ID_my_key,
e.g.: <Table>A</Table> <ID_my_key>5</ID_my_key> I could have something like: TABLE A.5. <Table>A</Table> <ID_my_key>A.5</ID_my_key>
I am looking for this feature because I need to take a set of objects that are arranged in a hierarchial manner in the data base and import a subset of that information (keeping the hierarchial information in tact) into another tool.
I guess I could write some code to walk the structure and construct the references but that would be some additional work that I really don't have time for at the moment. Any help/pointers on how to do this is appreciated. -John
I was wondering if anyone might be able to help me here. I was trying to write up a technical report for the Access database i built. Are there an easy way of exporting all the tables with their attributes in Access?
