How can I export a query result into excel on a button click?
Hi,
I would like to export a table formed by a Query into a excel sheet with a Click of a Customized button. can Anyone help me how to do that.
I can do that by going to file and export to excel sheet but i need it to be done with a button of my own .
Basically im trying to setup a click button that will export my query as a text file ( the text file will then be fixed width and i have already setup the specifications for this).
I think i get how to complete the export part as below
OutFilePath = "file location i want the data to be exported to"
DoCmd.TransferText acExportFixed, "Welcome output query Export Specification", WelcomeOutput, OutFilePath, True
I just dont know how to run the query and link it to the export.
I have a database that had some code that enabled the user to click a button and it would take information from one Access query or table and paste it into specific locations in Excel. This is important because the last worksheet has specific formatting in place.
If it didn't, I'd just use the transfer spreadsheet option and not even bother opening Excel at all with code.
I've got it working well except for the last part. The last query being copied has eight records and only one is being sent to Excel. Same code as the other queries where all of their data is going to the right spot in Excel with the right number of records.
Private Sub AM_Top_25_Click()
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
DoCmd.OpenQuery "delete_ShortPartItems", acNormal, acEdit
DoCmd.OpenQuery "append_to_Short_Part_Items", acNormal, acEdit
[Code] .....
Recently I set up a button to export a report automatically to Excel using the following code: DoCmd.outputTo acOutput Report, "Report1", acFormat.xls, "J:Insurance DeptReport1.xls", True.This works great, however I was wondering 2 things:
1. How do you set up to transfer multiple reports using the same button. EG I have reports named Report2, Report3, etc how do I add these to the code to export as well?
2. Is it possible to have them transfer to the one file but different sheets. EG Report1 would go to sheet1, Report2 to sheet 2, report3 to sheet 3 and so on?
I notice that, no matter the context, the shortcut menu button to export to Excel is always disabled. The Export drop down button is enabled, but it only shows PDF and XPS as target formats. However there is no problem in exporting to Excel from tables, queries or even reports using the ribbon tools. I want users to be able to export selected reports to Excel but I don't want to give them full access to the ribbon. I'm using Access 2007 SP3.
Update: a further curiousity. If the database is in accdb format, I can use print preview, right-click on the preview, then select Export...>Excel and that works. But the Export option isn''t available after conversion to accde format.
In Access, it is possible to create a query from a command button and export to excel?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI 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.
View 2 Replies View RelatedOften I use Labels as buttons due to the fact I can colour them the way I want, and use the on click event to trigger code.
The code below however works for a command button, but not a label button.
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmdatetime"
Do While Forms!frmdatetime!OKFlag.Caption = "False"
DoEvents
Loop
When this code is run by clicking on a command button, it works fine.
If run by clicking on a label, frmdatetime opens, but the mouse will not work on either of the 2 open forms unless you go down to the windows task bar, jump onto another window, and back onto frmdatetime.
If I remove the loop with the DoEvents in it, then the problem does not occur.
Can anyone enlighten me as to why this behaviour occurs.
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?
i want to export a table to excel , open this file and execute a macro from another file.
the code i have now is :
Code:
DoCmd.OpenTable "Overzichtaanwezigheid", acViewNormal
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdExportExcel
DoCmd.Close acTable, "Overzichtaanwezigheid"
Dim XL As Object
Set XL = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
XL.Workbooks.Open ("C:UsersErwinDocumentsOverzichtaanwezigheid.xlsx")
XL.Visible = True
XL.Run "d: est.xlsm!Macro3"
Opening the excel file goes ok, running the macro however not.
Ok if I sound like I do not know what I am talking about, that would be correct. That is why I am asking here.
So I have this form called frm_UserMaintenance
On The form I have a button
I would like to have an OnClick event that will activate one of the dialogue boxes on the tools menu.
Heres the catch. The menu is not visible and i do not want to make it visible. This makes using sendkeys a non option.
Any ideas????
I have a form on which I have a button that I want the user to click after a cetrain field on that form is updated.
I display a little pop-up box saying to make sure that a user clicks on that button.
Is there a way to know that this button was clicked? Is there a way to not proceed with anything else until that button is actually clicked?
Thanks.
Hi,
I have a form with a number of drop-down lists on it and each of these lists is bound to a field in a table.
When I return the results of a search to this form I want to allow users to be able to cycle through the records and change them if they want. However, the changes should only be saved if the user clicks on the "update record button". This button is simply the save record button by the MS Access wizard.
At the moment if they change the value in one of the drop down lists and move onto the next record the change is saved even though the user doesn't click any button. I want to prevent this from happening.
Any ideas on how I might achieve this?
If I prevent "AllowEdits" in the form properties I can't update the form using the "update record button" either.
Many Thanks,
Afternoon people,
Just a query (no pun intended). Is there a way to ping an ip address which is taken from a table and at the click of a button it pings? Bringing up the cmd app to show the results.
Cheers,

I currently have a form with a button that once clicked displays a word document,however I have to double click on the button even though the code is on the single click event property.The only line of code is as follows
OLEFile.Action = acOLEActivate
Does any body know how I can get the single click to work ?
Hi all....
I have a list box that I can select mulitple items from - I then click a search button and it runs a query that finds what I am looking for from a table and then displays the results in a subform.
In the subform I can input weights and get a percent....anyhow.
How do I set up a button so that it will print out a report or the report from the subform information that is currently being viewed.
Also, I can already do this by clicking a button on the form and pulling up the installed report program but, you need to input data to get this report.
I kinda want this button to be a "I need it now" type of print option.
Thanks...as always my questions are probably confusing...:D
I was wondering if there is any way to control a user's input in to a form such that data entry does not automatically create a new record. Is there any way to collect all inputs in the text/combo boxes and create the new record only when a button is clicked? Cheers, David.
View 1 Replies View Relatedhow 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.
Hi all!
I have this command button whose caption switches from update record to save record with a msgbox verifying if the person really wants to take this action. On click the user is then allowed to update the record then in theory they would be able to hit the same button whose caption now reads save record, the msg box would appear with a yes or no answer required. The code I have is putting the msg box after the user clicks the update button.
Anyhelp and/or suggestions would be most appreciated!
Private Sub cmdOpen3_Click()
stDocName = "frmSearch"
If cmdOpen3.Caption = "&Update Record" Then
If IsNull(Me.FTMSubform.SourceObject) = False Then
Me.FTMSubform.SourceObject = "frmFTMInfo"
Me.FTMSubform.Form!txtFirstName.Enabled = True
Me.FTMSubform.Form!txtFirstName.Locked = False
Me.FTMSubform.Form!txtFirstName.BackStyle = 1
Me.cmdOpen3.Enabled = True
Me.cmdOpen3.Caption = "&Save Record"
Me.cmdOpen4.Enabled = False
Me.cmdOpen4.Caption = "&Update Record"
Else
Me.FTMSubform.Form!txtFirstName.Enabled = False
Me.FTMSubform.Form!txtFirstName.Locked = True
Me.FTMSubform.Form!txtFirstName.BackStyle = 0
Me.cmdOpen3.Enabled = False
Me.cmdOpen3.Caption = "&Save Record"
Me.cmdOpen4.Enabled = True
Me.cmdOpen4.Caption = "&Update Record"
End If
End If
If cmdOpen3.Caption = "&Save Record" Then
If IsNull(Me.FTMSubform.SourceObject) = False Then
Me.FTMSubform.SourceObject = "frmFTMInfo"
If MsgBox("Save update to this individual?", vbQuestion + vbYesNo, "Save Update?") = vbYes Then
DoCmd.Save
DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmFTM"
DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName

Adding Records Only On Button Click?
I am building a database with a single table of records. I have created a form to allow new entries to be made to the table in a user-friendly way.
The problem I’m stuck with is how do I restrict the addition of new records on the form? I want the new record to only be added to the table upon the click of a button, but at present if I tab through, or exit the form the record is saved anyway.
Not all fields on the form are required input so I’m thinking that validation of every field is not the way to go.
I only ever want the record to be saved if a user clicks on a button and under no other circumstance.
I've been trawling through the posts back to about page 15 so any help would be appreciated.

Hello everyone!I need to call the button_click procedure for a button on a form (button1), from another form, if you see what I mean!.Basically the user opens form1. They click a button which opens form2. Once they have finished on form2 they press the close button, which is the point where I need to call the button1_click procedure on form1.I imagine it's something like this:Call Forms![frmForm1]![button1]![Click] orCall Forms.[frmForm1].[button1_Click()]But no matter what syntax I try it just won't work! They're very basic forms, with only 2 buttons on and basic commands.Any help appreciated! Thanks
