General :: Linking Of Excel Sheets In SharePoint Directly To MS Access
Nov 4, 2013
I have a number of Excel spreadsheets (data sources) hosted on Sharepoint that I need to link to one single Access database.
At first. I cannot link the spreadsheets directly to Access because Access cannot read the spreadsheets on SharePoint to make the links.
Secondly, I can export the spreadsheets from SharePoint to a local folder on my PC and keep them 'refreshed'. The problem with this is that I cannot link Access to the local refreshed spreadsheets because of the (auto) extention .iqy. Access does not know the extention .iqy and hence the two cannot be linked at all.
Thus: How do I link an Excel spreadsheet hosted on SharePoint to MS Access.

I currently utilize my company's LAN structure to run my Access database from. The LAN structure is abhorrently slow. So slow that often the database crashes upon opening or can take many minutes to complete a menial command.
I realize that connecting my database to the internet would be a better solution (as our internet connection seems to work better). This would allow many users to interact with the database more easily as well. I also realize that SharePoint is the standard method of connecting the database either by linking tables or publishing the database itself. However, my company does not have SharePoint and I am tired of battling with them on obtaining it.
Is there another way to connect/link Access tables to the internet without SharePoint? One that is FREE. I know with Access 2003 you could connect Access to an HTML webpage, but I think Microsoft got rid of that functionality with 2010 and beyond to force users into utilizing SharePoint.

I currently have two Access Databases (one with the raw 'data' and the other with the queries and reports that turn it into 'information' - the data database links into the other).
For contingency purposes, I now want to move both Databases onto sharepoint in case I have a system failure on my laptop (I don't have a server I can put these on). When I upload these onto Sharepoint the second database still seems to link to the file on my computer..
Is there a way I can get a Database to link into another database that's held on sharepoint?

I have a form which on selecting a command button sends out an email to a manager to say a specification is ready to be reviewed (this contains a link to a sharepoint site where the spec resides). The "approval" details are stored in by DB also so I would like to have included in that email a link back to the access db and the particular record so the person receiving the email can easily approve, if that makes sense.
Here is my code for generating the email (at the point "To approve please click here" is where I would like my link to go):
[i][i] Set OutApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set OutMail = OutApp.CreateItem(0)
strbody = "<font size=""3"" face=""Calibri"">" & _
[Code].....

Code:

I've been trying to load data from multiple excel worksheets in multiple workbooks into one table in Access. The first one loads fine, but after that I get errors and can't load anything else. All of the sheets are in the same format, so that shouldn't be the problem. Every solution I've tried has been a bust. All I want is to take all of my data and put it into one big database. Any suggestions?

I have two reports that I import into Excel.They both show the locations in the warehouse where our product is supposed to be located. Over years of lack of maintenance they no longer match.What I would like to do is link these two sheets in Access so that the information can be updated as I progress and correct the information.Both have a common row or field called Locations. The problem is that some of the locations doesn't exist in both of the sheets. One of the sheets also has duplicated records for the same location.
I assume that I need some type of query to accomplish this; I have copied and pasted some samples of the information in the spreadsheets as well as the results that I am looking for.

I'm having trouble appending an excel sheet into my access table.
I have 8 columns in my excel sheet:
1- full_name (short text)
2- alias (short text)
3- email_address (short text)
4- user_ID (short text)
5- Location (which is annotated using numbers 1,2,3,4 etc.) (number)
6- active (yes/no)
7- TRI (yes/no)
8- Another user ID (Short text form)
I am trying to append this data to an existing table in excel with the EXACT same column names.
I can append each column from my excel sheet separately and they will appear on the access table, but once I try to append all of the columns at the same time, so the records are not placed in different rows, I get a message saying "Script out of Range"
I cannot seem to figure it out since they can be uploaded individually.
Just to clarify, the excel columns are formatted to the access columns.

My goal in Excel was to combine them all into a single Pivot Table which I did. The issue is everytime I add a sheet I need to redo the Pivot Table, which would be a hassle as I will continually be adding sheets. I'm hoping that there is an easier way this could be done using Access. The individual sheets are emailed to me and then I put them into one Excel file, is there a way to take that Excel file with all the sheets and import it to Access and be able to sort the data as I would with a Pivot Table in Excel?

I'm importing data from Excel to Access using Access VBA which works fine that sheet name is first sheet in workbook. However, if multiple sheets exists in the workbook and that particular sheet can be 2 sheet, 3 sheet or any sheet. In that case how to search particular sheet name and import in access. Below is the code I have used for importing the data.
Code:
objAccess.DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acImport, acSpreadsheetTypeExcel9, _
sTmpTableName, sInput_Dir & "" & sInputFileName, True, sFile1Wks & "!"

I 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.

I just published an access database to sharepoint. However, after I set some user as contributor, those users can see structure of my database, and export tables to excel directly. Is there anyway that we can remove the access to "Setting"?

I 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).
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.
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
Dim objExcel As Object, objWorkbook As Object
Dim colWorksheets As Collection

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?

Ok..
I firstly just need to know if this is possible.. and if so.. if anyone has any example programs on how this can be done.
I have to create a large number of excel sheets with data from tables.
I need to have formatting (Image at the top, certain lines have to be highlighted.. etc).
Can Access export into excel with formatting? Or can I do it through VBA?
I need to have a lot of workbooks, most of them need multiple sheets.
I've never really had to work with access and excel in this way. Usually I have excel read an Access database, or have Access link/import an excel sheet.
I've never had to generate many sheets like this before.
Anyways, thanks for the help.

Is there a way to link a ACC table to an Excel spreadsheet so that when changes are made to one it automatically changes the other?
And -
How do I link (or join) two (or 3) Access tables so that the above happens - when a change is made to one it's made to the other.
Example:
I have an overall big table with 7 fields.
I created a query from it that has 5 fields. Or create another table that has 5 fields.
Can I join/link them so that changes made to one is made to the other?
Example:
An ID number changes
or a wage salary changes.
Thanks in advance.

I have an excel spreadsheet that i have linked to an Access database. I need to append and delete records from the spreadsheet into an existing table in my Access database. I am able to append specific records from the spreadsheet into my table but then i want to delete the records from the spreadsheet. When i run the delete query i get the following message; "Deleting data in a linked table is not supported by this ISAM" Is there some way i could get this to work?
I have records in this spreadsheet that needs to get into the database but once it is appended to the database i need those records deleted from the spreadsheet. I am kinda using this spreadsheet as a temporary table so one employee who does not use access can put data into his spreadsheet and then the other employees can pull want they need from this into the database.
Any suggestions?
