I'm trying to have a linked Excel chart in Access form. What I've done so far is create a chart in Excel and Paste Special>>Linked into Access.
I also have code inside Excel that will update chart data, it works fine.
Then I have code in Access that calls the code in Excel to update the data.
The data gets updated fine and the chart in Excel gets updated but the chart in Access only gets updated if I close and open the form again.
Here is the code that will update the Excel Data
Public Sub Import_VRSS_Graph_Data(strDayType As String, strTimeBand As String, strEntrance As String, Ws As Worksheet)
' Create a connection object.
Dim cnPubs As ADODB.Connection
Set cnPubs = New ADODB.Connection
' Provide the connection string.
Dim strConn As String
I have a linked Excel graph in my form. The process I go though to update them is:
User clicks on button Excel opens up Procedure in Excel runs that updates the data and the graphs Excel Closes
The user does not see any of that. This process works fine. But the linked graph does not actually update in the Access Form. To do that I run the following code:
Code: Set ctl = Me!OLEUnbound_pream With ctl ' Enable control. .Enabled = True ' Set Locked property to False. .Locked = False ' Set Verb property to activate for editing, but not visible .Verb = acOLEVerbShow .Action = acOLEActivate End With
The problem I get is that once .Action = acOLEActivate is ran, Excel opens. I don't understand why it does that and how do I close it.
I currently have a report that generates information based upon a query. The report is broken down into 3 subgroups (Temperature --> Vzip --> VDD). The information within each subgroup seems to be correct as the report cascades through each grouping, however the graph does not update with the new information and instead just copies a clone of itself throughout each Temperature group in the report.
That being said, the first graph that is generated is correct for that group (Temp: -55)... but the report simply copies that graph into the next temperature categories.
I've attached a .pdf of a report generated to visually show what I am referring to, ** notice it replicates the same graph for each group **
I have a table for storing details of share prices relating to specific certificate numbers, so only the £ value and the value date changes when we update (done manually at present).
The updates for different companies are done at different times, hence I cannot just delete and import new data, it needs to be an update to a value from an excel sheet (the excell sheet is downloaded from the web provider in question).
I had thought of using "get external data" to create a new or ad to a new table, then an update query to update the main table from the new one, but again cannot seem to get it to work on the specific certificate numbers.
As you can see I have little knowledge on code etc, and have so far only used macros to automate the application we use, can anyone please help???
Been wondering how I can update fields in my Access database table using data that lies in an excel spreadsheet. They have a common row ie say account number and other common fields that need to be updated.
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?
Access Database 2010 is used to capture progress on accounts. We are able to perform remedies on multiple accounts in the field and would like to update the records in Access all at once (by batch) rather than one-by-one.
I would like to export specific records from Access into Excel, make the updates to the records in Excel, then import the changes back into Access. I am looking for the updated Excel spreadsheet to overwrite the existing data in Access for that particular record.
I have an x-y graph on a form that gets its data from a query. The query pulls five records of data from a table. So there are five data points I want to have displayd on the graph. I got the graph to work properly except it only displays four points! The first data point is not displaying. I tried to set the datasheet in the graph to "ignore" the first row, as I noticed immediately that it does not have a number reference....I am assuming that is the problem. Is there a method to resolve this easily? I assume that it must be done with vba. My data is used by the graph in two columns...first column is the X value, second column is the Y value.
i am getting stuck while updating the data in the database table using a command button in the MS Access2003 forms. when i click the command button in the form, a message "Run time 2185: you cant refer to a property or method for a control unless the control has a focus". the code is as follows.
rivate Sub Command10_Click() Dim query As String
query = "select RESOURCEINFO from tbl_control where CONTROLNAME='" + Combo4.Text + "'"
If (cn.State <> 1) Then cn.Open "dsn=ABC", "", "" End If rs.Open query, cn, adOpenKeyset, adLockOptimistic RESOURCEINFO.SetFocus rs.Fields(0) = RESOURCEINFO rs.Update
rs.Close Set rs = Nothing cn.Close Set cn = Nothing On Error GoTo Err_Command10_Click
I have to use MS Access as front end with ODBC connection to Oracle 9i
DB.
The application(forms) should be able to update, delete ,insert records into oracle tables(backend).
i have a main form,which has some unique id's and other info about the ids and the subform shows several matching id's for that unique id in main form. the user who uses this application should be able to 1) search for the unique id in the main form such that the subform displays all its matches 2) they should be able to select anyone match and say approve(there can only be one match), then that particular record should be updated in the table.IF I USE A CHECK BOX AND IF THEY CLICK ON ONE RECORD AS MATCH,HOW DO I TAKE THAT RECORD SAY THE ID , NAME ADDRESS AND ALL DETAILS AND UPDATE THE TABLE??? similarly when they select some other record i should give option of deleting other irrelevant matches in the backend table.
the main form and the subform uses the same table as source.updates are to another table, i should also have to put entry into audit table about which record was deleted and which one inserted..
How should i do this?? i am new to MS access .VBA, any help would be highly appreciated!
i have a table with 7 columns. Assume THE columns are a,b,c,d,e,f,g. In this table there is only one row and each column is given a number value. For example, a is 1, b is 5 and so forth. Can i make a pie graph in access with these 7 labels, and show there totals in the graphs?
I have been struggling with modifying a graph that I have made into a counting graph, I have wasted over 4 hours trying to do this modification unsuccessfully.
I am attaching 4 pictures, The Depth_Ranges Table Visual is the query which creates graph 1 you can also see in the additional attached picture of the design view the code that creates this graph 1.
Now I need to add a field in the Design view of that query in order to have a result of the graph 2 that you see in the picture.
Basically, creating counter that will count how many values are in each bin labels that you can see on the picture of graph 2.
I am having a problem with my access graph, I have a combobox and based on that selection from the combobox I need it to display on the graph. It works fine ,but once i change the query to what i want to be displayed on the graph it doesnt show the bars , just the information .
I created a number of graphs on forms that graph GamesSold vs RDate. If a game has no sales, there won't be any data. Is there a way I can add a label that will automatically display "Game is not yet released" and make it dependant upon the graph having data, and invisible if it does?
I'm currently working on a project that calls for a graph that is based on an equation which the users can change while in the database.
the equation is basically an annual compound interest formula: 65*(1+x)^([YearNumber]-1), where x is the rate of change as a decimal, and what the users can change.
I've tried to use a simple query with this equation as one of the expressions, where the x is displayed as [Rate as decimal], but when I do this, I get an error on the table: the database engine does not recognize [Rate as Decimal] as a valid field name or expression.
I've also tried tying the equation to an unbound text box on a form called "RateasDecimal", with a button that opens the form with the graph on it, but I get the same error - except [Rate as Decimal] is replaced with "forms!form1!RateasDecimal".
is it possible to create a graph like this in access.
I have a form that has combo boxes and text fields (as well as sub forms). There is also a button linked to some code that says'
Private Sub cmdQuote_Click() 'Creates quote date and prints quote Me.QuoteDate = Now() Me.cbAgentID.Requery DoCmd.OpenReport "Quote", acViewPreview, , "BookingID = " & Me.BookingID End Sub
When the button is pressed the QuoteDate field (it is bound) should be be populated, but unfortunately it is not. I have played with refresh and requery but cannot derive a solution.
When I make the column graph the data seems to not be in any order. The report is in order by the number of days in ascending order.
How can I have the columns with the largest number show up first and the columns get smaller. I would like the largest column all the way to the left, proceeding the next one in size so it goes from largest to smallest.
In my access database I have a "products" table which contains three concerning columns (pID, price, listprice) This table contains products from hundreds of different suppliers. Periodically, each supplier will send an updated price list containing the three pieces of information listed above. My question is, is there any way to automate the following three processes: 1) if the product ID already exists. update to the new price 2) if the product ID doesn't exist add the new product and price 3) if a product has been discontinued, delete the record (this part not a necessity, but would be nice)
Thank you in advance for any help, if you have any other questions please ask
I currently have a database that is missing various pieces of information, we are getting a temp in to complete this. I don't want the temp adding data directly into Access so I have exported the table that needs updating into Excel.
How can I then import the new data without altering current data.
I know this is no problem for new records, but if I have a current record with a few fields of information missing how can I just import information into the blank fields. This can't be a manual process as there are hundreds of records.
I have an excel spreadsheet that uses a data connection to a website to download text. I have the data connection properties to refresh upon opening the file. If i double click the file from windows, it updates. Although using the code below doesn't work. When i've added the code ObjXL.Save before closing it, it usually saves a file with no data and no cells. I'm eventually going to switch visible to false.
Private Sub btnDownLoadSettle_Click() Dim XLapp As New Excel.Application Dim ObjXL As Excel.Workbook Set ObjXL = XLapp.Workbooks.Open("C:...Settlements.xlsx") ObjXL.Application.Visible = True ObjXL.Windows(1).Visible = True Sleep (5000) ObjXL.Close XLapp.Quit End Sub
I would like to embed a blank worksheet in access form. I want to do a macro to change the cells value when I click on a button, but I don't know how to do it?
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?
