View RepliesNeed to get these into Access from an excel spreadsheet (located on sharepoint). I'm using the spreadsheet fields to create the table fields in Access.
View RepliesI am using Access 2010 and Excel 2010. I need to have VB script to export the access table 502 records by 38 fields into Multiple Excel workbooks each having multiple tabs. In the Access table each record has two fields: Div and Tab that will be used to name each workbook and each tab (sheet). There are 6 unique "Div"'s to name the 6 workbooks and there are several "Tab" names for each Div (workbook).
Note: These 6 workbooks with multiple tabs were originally imported into Access from one common folder on my desktop by this routine:
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim blnHasFieldNames As Boolean, blnEXCEL As Boolean, blnReadOnly As Boolean
Dim lngCount As Long

I'm in the process of importing an excel spread sheet from an external source (SharePoint).
I have the link for the file and have edited it from the Https:// to projectspace. intranet.sharpoint etc etc.
The problem I'm having is before importing the data into a new table in my current db I get an error
"The File "projectspace.intranetetc etc" does not exist.
I am using IE8 and the version of Access is 2007.
WE are starting at the very basics. We used the db Wizard to set up a db for us. Now we are trying to import the data as a csv file. We keep getting an error Field 'Field6' doesn't exist in destination table 'Contacts'. We have looked at both the excel file and the table in Access and we cannot figure out what is holding us up. Please be patient, we are learning by the seat of our pants

I have an assignment that is currently above my skill range in access.
Basicly i recieve a monthly excel spreadsheet with 2 sheets.
Both are now made into access tables.
what i want to do is make macros so that when we recieve the new spreadsheet file next month i can import the data.
my difficulty is that if i go file-->import --> select the spreadsheet, etc it allows me to choose which sheet inside of the excel file i want to import. But using the transferspreadsheet macro doesnt. so it spits me an error saying it couldnt find so and so field, etc.
basicly i need 2 macros.... 1 for each sheet. to import the new data into the respective tables.
also it would be awesome if on the import it could add a field "last imported" or "last modified", etc and put todays date, etc.
any help...MUCH appreciated.

I'm trying to import an Excel file into access as a table so I can use the data in other tables I am building. When I try to import to file, I get an error message telling me that there are over 255 columns and not all my data will be imported. The file is a report I pull from another system at work and it is very large, is there a way to get past the 255 column limit?

Excel workbooks would take names from the "Div" field and the tab names would come from the "Tab" field in the Access table. First need to find workbook name (Div - Field) then the look for each sheet name (Tab - Field) to create 1st Excel workbook with all the sheets (Tab) and repeat the process. I think you need to approach of read the Access table one record at a time keying on the "Div" and "Tab" fields in creating each Excel workbook with the associated multiple tabs (sheets) that are written to a common folder.

I have information held in 3 different tables and I would like to extract this information to three different tabs in a singe Excel workbook - preferably in one step.
My access knowledge is fairly basic but I have been looking online and I can only find out how to do it using a VBA script - which is quite terrifying! Is there a simple way to do this?
It's easy enough to link to someone else's Excel spreadsheet and get their data into my Access database but I have to do it each month. They create a new tab each month (OCT-2007,NOV-2007,DEC-2007) for the month and the spreadsheets always have the same structure.
Is there anyway to tell my database to go out and look to see if the new spreadsheet has been created and if it has then import the data?
Can this be done through a macro ?
If not, what would be a simple way to do this ?
thanks.
I have a problem with the way my forms are opening.The problem is with the document tabs, not the in form tabs.Basically the database will open the login screen (Modal & Popup) on load, after a successful login the user is redirected to a diary events page and the login form closes, then a user can select an ID (hyperlinked) which will open up a popup/modal form for more details and then if they want they can click a button within the popup which will view all client details.
I use VBA to close any popup/modal forms and open the Main Client Screen, at this point there are only 2 forms open in Single Form format, which is the diary events page and main client screen.The problem is once you click "view client" and the form opens, it defaults to the diary events tab, so the client screen is opening behind the diary events form, you then have to click the document tab for "client screen" to be able to view the form, which is a minor issue but annoying still.
I want to make a database of diseases (need to learn them for school and would like a serchable database on my smart phone for future reference).
Unfortunately spent a lot of time making hundreds of pages of word tables before i realized a database would be better. See attached image or pdf. Is there a way to import the tables to Access?
I need to preserve the hierarchic info in the nested bullet point lists. E.g. under treatment i might have a point called Acute treatment, with sub-levels, Step 1, Step 2, etc. with their own sub-levels. I need to maintain this relational hierarchic info.
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 want to hide external data and databasetools tabs from my access program.
how i do it ?
I would like to know which way is the best way to import excel data from multiple sheets in to multiple tables in access.
For example data from Sheet1 -> Table1, Sheet2->Table2, Sheet3->Table3 etc...
I have tried using this:
Cmd.TransferSpreadsheet acImport, acSpreadsheetTypeExcel5, "Table1", "C:Importedfile.xlsx", True, "Sheet1!"
Ironically, data from Sheet2 and Sheet3 seem to be properly imported in to table2 and table3, but some of the data from Sheet1 seems to be missing in Table1 after import.
Any other ways to import the data?
I have a large spreadsheet I need as the basis for an Access database.
The spreadsheet contains... Company Number, Name, Address, etc...
The Company number is consistant and always the same..
However the Name and address is different... eg LTD v Limited, ABC House v 34 High Street etc....
how I can prepare the data and get into access?
I have an Access crosstab query that I have exported to an Excel Spreadsheet. I have the spreadsheet formatted using conditional formatting and I'd rather not have to reset it every morning. It's a single spreadsheet (the columns/rows will not deviate greatly day to day) and should be very simple, but I'm not getting it for some reason.
So if I have "Test.accdb" and it contains "qryX" as my crosstab and "Sheet1.xls" is my formatted Excel spreadsheet, how do I code for the latest "QryX" to go in and replace the old "QryX" data in "Sheet1.xls" ?
Hello - just joined today. I hope to be of some help to other users, but am kind of a newbie.
I have an excel ss that I regularly receive which needs to go into my access DB. I set up a macro with transferspreadsheet and that works, except for one problem. I have one field which is designed as text but has data that looks like numbers as well as data that looks like text. When I run the macro, the number-like data doesn't import as text (23602012345 imports as 2.3602e+010). FYI the field in access is already defined as text. Each time I import a ss, I am appending to the existing data in the table
I have tried formatting the excel column as text with no luck. If I remove the data that truly is text in that column (ABC1287567) and leave just the 236* data, and then format the excel column as text, it seems to work fine. It just doesn't like the mixing of the data...at least it seems to me.
Any ideas to avoid manual manipulation of my excel ss before running the macro would be very helpful.
Thanks much in advance!
Anyone out there have any ideas on how to Import an Excel File (SPECIFIC worksheet) to an Access Database
I am looking to do this at the click of a button or when the database opens...
What I really want to do is......
Is there a way to import this into an already existing table.
Delete the existing records and import the new records from the Excel Spreadsheet?
THanks
Every month I download an Excel spreadsheet from a vendor and import it into Access 2003. Even tho the first row has column names, a dozen fields have incorrect names and data types and I have to manually change them each time. The spreadsheet has columns representing the amount spent for specific months. The column names are all like "May-02", "Sep-03", etc. and are all currency. After the import, many of the fieldnames are like "1/5/02 0:00:00" instead of "May02" and the data type is text. The column formatting is "mmm-yy" on all the columns, even the ones where the field names match the column names. How do I get all the fields to import correctly?
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi,
I am failry new to Access, and am trying to import an Excel spreadsheet into a Table. I go all the way through the import wizard, and it gives me an error that it cannont create, and then it goes back to the last screen, and I have no Idea what is wrong.
I have looked under many help's and online tips, and searched this site to no avail. As far as I can tell everything should be acceptable to import. I have unique column header titles, no blank rows, nothing over 255 characters, and it still does not work. Can anyone give me some advice on what is wrong in this spreadsheet causing it not to be imported?
Thanks!

Can someone help me?
I have a database, in which I have three tables which hold 'static data', which will be used over and over again to record work and produce invoices.
The Tables are as follows:
tblManagedUnit
MUID (Key) (One to Many with CircuitName below)
MU Number
tblCircuitName
CircuitNameID (One to Many with SpanDetails below)
MUID (FK) (From tblManagedUnit)
Circuit Name
tblSpanDetails
SpanDetailID
CircuitNameID (FK) (from tblCircuitName)
Span From
Span To
I have created the Managed Unit Data manually, of which there are 43. However I have a spreadsheet with 8,600 lines of repeating data in all three categories.
Hey
I have a procedure that imports excel spreadseet to access table ever today.
today it failed. Forrmat was the same as yesterday.
I did 'copy/paste special/format' from yesterday's file; still today's file wouldn't import.
Tried to copy manually to the table, got the error message about 'field not being in the same format'
Went to table's design view, and changed everything to 'memo', the was able to do copy/paste.
There wer no values with more then 20 characters
I was able to change 'memo' back to text and date/time without loosing any date.
Has anyone ecountered this ? Going changing table, and then chaging it back doesn't sound like the best practice
what can be done ?
can abything be done to excel file ?
Ok I have a function that imports some spreadsheets into our db (it's a timer/scheduler on another db)>
The file coming from oracle discoverer originally. Can't figure out in that 4i version how to remove the headers.
What could I add into my code in the function to import only the data and not the column names/headers? I can provide code if needed?
