Exporting Query Data To Excel And Hyphen Character
Jul 12, 2005
Hello all,
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:
Thanks in advance.

I have a series of dates that I inherited from former DB. Some of the dates are Mon-Fri, Mon-Thu, Sun-Fri, etc. That is, there is a hyphen "-" in the middle of the text. I have an unbound control with an IIF statement using the LIKE condition, I just get an error. I tired the following to no avail. Using Access 2010.
IIF([Day1] Like "*-*", 5, 1)
IIF([Day1] like "-", 5, 1)
IIF ([Day1] like '-', 5, 1)
IIF ([Day1] like [-], 5, 1)
I've looked it up and the hyphen _ is used as a wild card character, but I need to include it just as a dash.

Hi all,
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?
Regards,
DALIEN51

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.

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...
Any ideas??

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
[Code] ....

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 have an Access database with millions of records.I am only interested in a subset of records (250,000+) that I would like to analyze in an Excel pivot-table. My issue is; how do I best export this information to Excel.I've tried filtering and exporting, but all records are exported. I've tried copy and paste but only 65K are allowed. Is there a better way to do this, perhaps linking the Access database?

I'm having an issue where when I attempt to export data from an Access database to an excel spreadsheet using VBA it truncates any field longer than 255 characters to the 255 limit. I'm using
Code:
DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acExport, acSpreadsheetTypeExcel12, "tableName", "FilePath", True, ""
to export it (obviously with the table name and filepath filled in) but for some reason I cannot get it to export the entirety of the field to excel. I've been doing some digging on various forums around the internet and it seems as though it may be possible to split it into various excel cells then use automation to concatenate the cells. But considering this field I am trying to get not truncated can be up to 40,000 characters theoretically, it doesn't make sense to do it that way.Do you need more information from me? I'm somewhat new to both Access and VBA.

I've been searching for a good solution for this and can't find it. Hopefully something like this is possible.
I need to produce a report in excel from my database that needs to include information from 5 different tables. The relationship between two of these tables is a many-to-many relationship connected by a junction table. (I hope that is the right terminology)
My report needs to be in a certain format and needs to include all fields in the same order for every record.
The problem arises because of the many-to-many relationship. I have a tblOrder and a tblAgent linked by the junction table tblAgentOrder. For every order there can between 1 and four different agents associated with the order which are stored in the junction table. In addition these agents will be of different types 1-4.
Ex: One order could have an agent of type 1 and an agent of type 4. While another order may only have one agent of type 2.
I need the query to give me the result of OrderID, DateOpened, AgentType1, AgentType2, AgentType3, AgentType4. Regardless of if the order actually had an AgentType3 or 4 associated with it. In this case the fields would be blank.
Right now I'm getting:
OrderID, DateOpened, AgentType1
OrderID, DateOpened, AgentType2
I hope this makes sense, but let me know if I need to clarify anything.
Thanks in advance.

I have a form that allows users to specify the information they want to be displayed on a subform. I have used the below code (simpilified for example purposes) to create the SQL string and sent it to the subform for display. I would like to have an export to excel button to export the recordSource to a spredsheet. is this possible?
Me.frmsubClients.Form.RecordSource = "SELECT DISTINCT New_Client_Table.Account_Number" & BuildFilter

I am exporting queries to Excel using a Form with command buttons. The code for this effort follows:
Private Sub Command8_Click()
Dim reportName As String
Dim theFilePath As String
Select Case Me.Frame1.Value
Case 1
reportName = "qryPriorMnth"
Case 2
reportName = "qryNewRequests"
Case 3
reportName = "qryNoApprovals"
End Select
theFilePath = Me.txtFilePath.Value
theFilePath = theFilePath & reportName & "_" & Format(Date, "yyyy-mm-dd") & ".xls"
DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acExport, acSpreadsheetTypeExcel9, reportName, theFilePath, True
MsgBox "Done."
End Sub
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.
Thanks
Alan

I am using the DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet statement that successfully exports a query result set into excel. I was wondering is there a way to get this result to populate certain fields of an existing excel spreadsheet that I have created and need the information for. Right now the query just creates a new worksheet in the specified workbook.

Hi folks, I need your help.
Did any one get a error message like the one below:
“
Run-time error ‘3061’:
Too few parameters. Expected 1.
“
Basically I have a form with a command button and a combo box. The combo box's row source property is set to the following sql:
SELECT DISTINCTROW tblProjts1.intProjectID, tblProjts1.chrProjectName FROM tblProjts1 ORDER BY tblProjts1.chrProjectName;
I have a command button which runs the following procedure (Thanks, credit goes to madrav72):
Private Sub cmdSendToExcel_Click()
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Set db = CurrentDb
'Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("qryOne", dbOpenSnapshot)
Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("qryTwo", dbOpenSnapshot)
'Start a new workbook in Excel
Dim oApp As New Excel.Application
Dim oBook As Excel.Workbook
Dim oSheet As Excel.Worksheet
Set oBook = oApp.Workbooks.Add
Set oSheet = oBook.Worksheets(1)
'Add the field names in row 1
Dim i As Integer
Dim iNumCols As Integer
iNumCols = rs.Fields.Count
For i = 1 To iNumCols
oSheet.Cells(1, i).Value = rs.Fields(i - 1).Name
Next
'Add the data starting at cell A2
oSheet.Range("A2").CopyFromRecordset rs
'Format the header row as bold and autofit the columns
With oSheet.Range("a1").Resize(1, iNumCols)
.Font.Bold = True
.EntireColumn.AutoFit
End With
oApp.Visible = True
oApp.UserControl = True
'Close the Database and Recordset
rs.Close
db.Close
End Sub
qryOne:
SELECT tblProjts1.intProjectId, tblProjts1.chrProjectName, tblProjts1.chrBlrPropNum, tblMaxLoad.*
FROM tblProjts1 INNER JOIN tblMaxLoad ON tblProjts1.intProjectId = tblMaxLoad.intProjectId;
qryTwo:
SELECT tblProjts1.intProjectId, tblProjts1.chrProjectName, tblProjts1.chrBlrPropNum, tblMaxLoad.*
FROM tblProjts1 INNER JOIN tblMaxLoad ON tblProjts1.intProjectId=tblMaxLoad.intProjectId
WHERE (((tblMaxLoad.intProjectId)=Forms!frmReprtSelen!cb oProj));
My problem: When I run cmdSendToExcel_Click procedure with “ Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("qryOne", dbOpenSnapshot) “ it loads the excel and export the data to Excel without any problem. The Excel spreadsheet will show the rows as follows:
ProjtIdProjName Column3Column4 Column5, etc
8Bechtel xxxyyy
9WOPS aaabbb
11Spring zzzttt
12AgP mmmnnn
But when I run with Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("qryTwo", dbOpenSnapshot), I get the error
“Run-time error ‘3061’:
Too few parameters. Expected 1.”
I even tested the qryTwo using a separate command button with the following code on the click event:
stDocName = "qryTwo"
DoCmd.OpenQuery stDocName, acNormal, acEdit
and it produces the single row based on the projectId selected on combo box (as shonw below in datasheet view):
ProjtIdProjName Column3Column4 Column5, etc
8Bechtel xxxyyy
Does any one have any clue what this error 3061 is? Please help. I am struggling almost a week to figure this out, NO LUCK.
Thanks for your time and help in advance.
Shan.

Hi all,
I'm not very experienced with Access. I'm looking for a very simple sample of how to export Query results to an Excel Template document. Especially to specific cell references. Would anyone have one to share. I'm trying to get my head around the concept first.
I may have to use Access 2000 and later versions to run the database, so do I have to cater for both DAO and ADO?
Thanks in advance for any help
