Export To Excel And Merge Fields
Aug 5, 2005
Hello folks
I am developing a basic Fault Logging system so I have a main form that allows ref to be input, date fault raised, priority, etc... I also have a sub form running that allows notes to be input. There is no set limit on the number of notes that can be added as this needs to be flexible. A relationship is set up so that the Fault reference will be tagged to each of the notes. What I need is a query (I'm guessing that is the best way to do it) that will gather all of the standard fields fromthe main form and also all of the note fields (it will need to return null values in notes fields). Preferably I would like all of the notes fields to concatenate into one field with a line break between each note. The concatenation process would have to be flexible and dynamic as there is no predetermined limit to the number of notes that will have to be joined together.
I'm relatively new to Access and having searched the forums and tried a few ideas can't find anything that I can adapt to my situation. Any ideas/guidance would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

I have a query tool that allows users to create their own custom queries. Basically, it's a form that allows the user to check boxes for the fields they want to see. The code behind it simply hides the fields in the query for which the user has not checked the box. That works very well.
My problem is I would like to have a command button that will export the query to excel. The OutputTo and TransferSpreadsheet commands will just export the whole query into excel regardless of whether or not the field is checked. I'm looking for a way to only export the columns the user has checked. Is this possible, and if not is there a workaround that would do something similar?

We have a report that is generated monthly to management on Excel. We Export the data from an Access query to Excel and at that time the user has to update the Month Reported and Year Reported fields on each record within that query.
Can I set up something to where the user can click a button or something and Access do all of this automatically?
Example: May 2005 was just sent out and we exported the data from the query to Excel and went back into the query and chose update query and had Access fill in May (in the month reported field) and 2005 (in the year reported field) on all of the records.
Any help is appreciated, thanks...

My database only has one table of data so it's not complicated.I would like to create a form that can create customisable Excel exports of the data based on set conditions and exporting only select fields. URL...I have one table of data (tblCustomers) which contains all of the fields in the box above.
I would like export the data from the table to excel showing only the fields that are ticked in the box (frmCustomReport).The check boxes are named chk then whatever the field name is eg. chkLocation, chkStatus. The labels are the names of the fields in tblCustomers. Is there a way to do this in SQL or VBA?

I have the form (PROJECT DETAILS) that displays a specific record's information, one record at a time.I would like to click a button to export 5 specific fields (name, phone, address) of that form ("Project Details"), based on the PK "AssignNr", and then insert those fields in an already created Excel form that has those fields blank, but other fields filled in.
And then, as part of the same macro, I want to have the Print pop-up come up in the Excel form to select where/how that file will get printed.I've tried exporting from the Project Details form, but it exports all the records. And then I am not sure how / where to code the vlookup formula (if that's even necessary) to take the data from the exported file, into the existing Excel form that needs to be filled in.
Can this even be done in one macro, or do I need to create two - one to export data from Access to Excel. And then another in Excel to vlookup the details from the exported file, into the existing Excel file.
It would be nice if I didn't have to put in what the vlookup criteria is. (i.e. AssignNr (which is the PK)) - if it could just be taken from the PROJECT DETAILS form's current record selection.

I had to delete a database so I exported selected records using export as a text file thinking I would get some sort of delimited text file that I could later use. Instead I got some sort of fixed length file with .............. between records and | between fields.
I'd like to convert this data to a tab delimited file.
How would I do this?
Thanks

I am using Excel and Access 2010.
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?

how i can export the data from Access to excel using Access VBA for the specified sheet using data linkage with access database. Like we used to do it manually in excel as external data from access.Like we have some codes for linking excel file to database mentioned below;
DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acLink, , "region", "F:DB PracticeBook1.xlsx", False, "region"
Can we have something like this to link database table in excel file automatically.So that the excel size won't be that big and also it saves processing time.

Howdy, a newbie here, and new to access, but pretty strong computer skills..
need you're help please....
trying to "merge" fields - i think merge is the right name for it...

100 ___
200 200
300 ___
___ 400
500 500
600 ___
___ 700
where the ___ = empty
I need it to look like this, a single field..
100
200
300
400
500
600
700
the values in the two fields are always the same if the exist in both fields..
thanks in advance!!!
Happy Holidays!

I want to turn this set of fields returned from a query :-
'Stage'-'Engineer'-'BDE'
A-a-e
A-b
B-c-f
C-d
Into this result by merging the fields 'Engineer' and 'BDE' :-
'Stage'-'NewField'
A-a
A-e
A-b
B-c
B-f
C-d
Something like [Engineer]&[BDE] just joins up the text which isn't what I want.
A-ae
A-b
B-cf
C-d
I hope this makes sense.

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?

I have a table and would like to merge all the fields into one text field of the table after the insert. I'm using adp (access/sql server).
When using standard sql the null values give a problem and i don't want to use the if clause as it will give too much coding.....

Is there anyway that I can merge two fields together in a report? For example instead of having first name and surname as separate fields I want to put them together so that I don't have a big gap between them. The report is based on a query if that's any help!

hi,
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!
Any suggestions??
Thanks in Advance..

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.
Thanks in advance!

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?
