I ave a table in access that has a column in the format single with auto setting for decimal places (I'm guessing this is 15 sig figs but I'm not too sure). What I'm trying to do is export this file as a csv so I can use it SAS. When I use the export function and select csv it truncates the data so all i get is 2 decimal places.
I can't export as a excel then rename as the file 1.4 million records long and so is too big for excel to handel. (I did try it anyway and it only exported the first 65000 rows).
I'm not an expert at all in Access, and would have little idea how to write any code that would allow me to do this.
Can anyone please help me as I urgently need to do this.
I frequnetly need to export tables for others to use. I export them as .csv files usually and I'd like a way to include what I call metadata in the .csv file.
ideally, it would appear on the top of the file before the comma-delimited data actually starts.
I can't figure out how to include the table field descriptions in a file.
Hi all, I use a d'base that exports a table via a query to Excel. Once the user hits the button to run this command it can take between 30 sec to 60 sec until the data is displayed in excel.
Does anyone know of anyway to speed this process up. Currently there are around 12,000 records with the table.
I am working on a database that requires a user (with very little access knowledge) to export a table into .dbf (DBase IV Format) using a button and VBA.
I realize this can be done by right clicking on a table and click export. However I did not give the end user access to the tables (being a good DB Developer!) and also I don't believe I can teach this particular user how to do the steps to accomplish this.
The scenario: Third party software needs (SwissSys, which is a chess software) to grab information about players and ratings from a .dbf file (and will not work with access). I have developed a database for the association so that they can edit players information, and update the ratings directly off the website (www.chess.ca) and it automatically updates in the database.
The idea is, the Access Database updates the ratings from the website, and then the user exports that data into the dbf file (players table) that is directly linked to the third party software.
I am looking for a way to use VBA code to either 1. Create/Overwrite the existing dbf file when exporting the tblPlayers, or 2. Append/Update the current dbf file with the updated ratings, and creating new entries when necessary when exporting the tblPlayers.
Unfortunately I have had little success in finding code to export to a dbf file, anyone have any ideas?
Hi there i am exporting a table that has linked tables to others (ie the "+" you get when you link the tables) but when i export the table ... the linked tables dont get exported.... can someone be kind enough to help with this
I need to export a specific record in the table. The menu's export option only export the entire table. Is there a way to define certain record to export?
I design a form and all my work is based on that form. I have two tables which I join together as following. The unfitex field is calculating using fields from both tables as shown below.
Dim db As Database Dim rst As DAO.Recordset Dim sqlstr As String v = Combo37.Value sqlstr = "SELECT postdecgor.N1, postdecgor.Age, postdecgor.UNFITpc, postdecgor.DECENTpc, postdecgor.HHSRSpc, [UNFITpc]*[sample]/100 AS UNFITex, postdecgor.DECENTex, postdecgor.HHSRSex, [Sample size].[Age dwelling], [Sample size].sample FROM postdecgor LEFT JOIN [Sample size] ON postdecgor.Age=[Sample size].[Age dwelling]WHERE ((postdecgor.N1)='" & v & "'); " Set rst = db.OpenRecordset(sqlstr, dbOpenDynaset) Set Form.Recordset = rst
I then set up some textbox which shows the results as following.
It works, I can see the results on the screen, however I would like to save the results into a table and I am not quite sure how to go about it. Can you help??
I've created a macro that will export one of my tables to a .csv. Everything is all fine and dandy, except that I need to find a way to have this command work on any computer. As of now, the command exports to C:UsersKodyDocuments, and can only do so because this path exists on my computer. But if I were to send this Access file to someone else to use, they would get an error stating that the specified path is not valid. Is it possible to create a general export directory which would work with any computer this is ran on?
Hi guys. I'm a bit of a noob with Access. I have a table which is 15 rows by 250,000 columns. So there are about 3.75m records.
What I need to do is to get access to export a number of csv files automatically from this table.
I need each csv file to contain all the data in the table for a certain range of rows. This is determined by a value in a particular column. This is a sample of the table.

Basically Store_Nbr represents a UID for a particular store. All the data is currently in one big table, and I need a single csv file for each different store_nbr (so it contains all the data in the table for each unique store). Also, for each store_nbr, there are different Year Month of Surveys. For each store_nbr, I need a different csv file for each Year Month of Survey. This will probably divide up the 250,000 long table into about 200 csv files, as there are about 50 different Store_nbrs, and there are 4 surveys for each individual store.
Sorry if I've not made myself perfectly clear.
I'm sure there's a simple way of doing it, but I really do suck with access and was wondering if you guys had any idea.
I export a query as csv to upload to another database on a web site. When that csv file has been exported I'd like the query to be emptied, so that the next time I export I don't export duplicates. What's the easiest way to do that?
I've been thinking of having a field in the table with a check box that is checked when the file is exported. The query then selects only those records where that box is not checked.
But how can I check those boxes on Export rather than when I run the query? The reason being that I may want to preview by running the query, without having that affecting the check box.
In Tbl_Output's 3rd column, only the Columns names: Name, Age and Location are repeated for each person and not column names ID1,ID2 (only its data xxx,yyy etc. is required in columns 1 and 2 as shown).

Do While rstElements.EOF <> True sName = rstElements.Fields(1) sNumber = rstElements.Fields(2) sArea = rstElements.Fields(3)
Using DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet I'm exporting a table which has a couple of Yes/No fields formatted as Yes/No. However when I export, they appear as TRUE/FALSE? Am I doing something wrong?
I am trying to export text to a 2010 word document from an access 2010 database with DAO. I have successfully been able to export text from the main table tblLandSales via variables (below) and then subsequently a document. I used the following code:
Dim objWord As Word.Application Dim docm As Word.Document Dim rst As New ADODB.Recordset Dim strSQL As String Dim strLandSalesID As String
[Code] ....
Now I want to export other data from a one to many related table where [fk_tblLandSalesID] is the foreign key in the related table and tblLandSalesID is the primary key in the main table.
When exporting my tables from access to excel my table names change if they have a space in the name. Example table name "New Record" turns into "New_Record".
What I am trying to do is export the table data to excel than update my access program than imort the table data back. This way I can take a vertion of my access program and update/modify it as time permits than reinsert all current data with min down time.
The code I am using is as follows:
Dim td As DAO.TableDef, db As DAO.Database Dim out_file As String out_file = CurrentProject.Path & "excel_out" Set db = CurrentDb() For Each td In db.TableDefs
I am using Office 2007 and trying to export a table in Access to a Macro-Enabled workbook in Excel. Unfortunately, when I go to export the table, my file does not show when I browse for the file and .xlsm doesn't look like it's a supported file extension. I have looked around and noticed others have this problem as well. One solution was to use save the Excel file as a 97-2000 file since it doesn't change the file extension based on having macros. However, I can't do this because then I lose functionality with tables and other things on my spreadsheet. I need the data in Excel to be updated every month. Is there any way to do this in Access? I'm going to explore using sharepoint. My DB options are limited to Access and Sharepoint. I don't have access to Oracle or SQL Server or MySQL etc.
I have a form built with multiple buttons. Once the user clicks the button and enters their parameter, I am using VBA to export the data to an excel pivot table. I would like to turn the subtotals to false so as the user clicks the check boxes in the pivot there are not any totals, subtotals, or grand totals. I am not sure how to add that to an existing query?
I want to export details from a table in access to a word document or any other document that will keep the current design and let me make changes afterwards.

I'm currently using the following VBA to export all tables within my DB to Excel on separate tabs:
Dim td As DAO.TableDef, db As DAO.Database Dim out_file As String out_file = CurrentProject.Path & "" & "Backup.xls" Set db = CurrentDb() For Each td In db.TableDefs If Left(td.Name, 4) = "MSys" Then 'We do not need MSys tables in excel file Else DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acExport, acSpreadsheetTypeExcel9, _ td.Name, out_file, True, Replace(td.Name, "dbo_", "") 'We do not need dbo prefix in sheetnames End If Next
But upon exporting I get the following error:
"Run-time error 3274' External table is not in expected format"

I've googled the crap out of it and the only thing I can find is mail merge...which as far as I can tell is used for creating letters and mailling lables or emails.
What I would like to do is click a command button on an invoice which would export company name, province and date, into an existing word template, save it as a new filename, and then close.
I have 2 reports that are exporting to 2 different .txt files. Currenlty, I am using the transfertext function in access. What is the best way to combine these 2 reports into one .txt file? I have 2 different specification criteria being used, but I need all the data in 1 report.
What I want to do is to export about 300 rows of records at a time from a table to a text file (text001.txt). The next 300 will be in text002.txt and so forth.
What I am doing right now is -- I am looping through all the fields [rs(0)-rs(50)], put in a variable and then print to the text file then go to the next row.
Is there a way to print the whole row to a text file instead of looping through all the fields then print it.
