General :: Pulling In Data Similar To Vlookup In Excel
Aug 18, 2015
In my Access Database, for each row, there are two queries I want to pull data from to give me the status of the item in the related columns. In Excel, I use one file with multiple tabs to vlookup the data. How would I accomplish this in Access?
For Example, Jacksonville has a value of Submitted in the Completed Checklist Column and Approved in the Parts List Column. These values currently come from two separate tables. How do I get my database table to update when the status changes for each of the columns?

Hey folks.
I have an Access db needing populated via a worksheet with unknown # rows and known # of columns. Before pulling this data in I must do a row count to determine how many records will be added to the db. Otherwise, it would be a very simple thing to just copy the contents of the worksheet over.
Known:
- Only using DAO.
- The access table is already created matching the column count in the worksheet.
- The spreadsheet will have an unknown row count.
- Some rows in the spreadsheet will have various cells empty.
- A completely empty row will mean EOF.
Need:
- I need to determine how many rows are in the spreadsheet before copying into db.
Problem that occurs from attempt:
- Overflow issue. I seem to be counting every single row on the worksheet, even though only 2 contain data.
Any ideas out there? Pasting below my latest attempt.
Dim strStorage as integer
strStorage = CLng(xlsWST.Rows.Count)
Thanks folks.

I've got a piece of VBA scripting which runs as an event linked to a button on my MS Access form.
I maintain a database of members of staff at my organisation. It's pretty outdated...
I'm basically wanting to pull in their updated data (extracted from on our payroll system) from a spreadsheet, into a form, when clicking a button on a particular person's record.
This is what I have so far.
Code:
start = Forms!frm_main2!txt_start_row.Value - 1
conv = DDEInitiate("EXCEL", "Staff List.xlsx")
cell_employee_number = "R" & start & "C1"
cell_surname = "R" & start & "C2"
[Code] ....
The function "CStr(DDERequest())" converts the cell number into the readable data, however I seem to have whitespace below the value.
What would I need to do to strip out this whitespace? Would I use strtrim? If so, I am unsure of the syntax... how would I incorporate strtrim into the above?

I am copying and pasting the results of an Access query to Excel for the purposes of using that data as the source for a VLOOKUP. However, it seems that no matter what I do the cells that were pasted from Access do not correspond to the same values that are in the lookup table in Excel. For example, I want to find the value ABC from column A of the pasted Access data to find the corresponding ABC in the Excel array. It doesn't consider it a match even though both cells are formatted the same way. I've even gone so far to test it by putting a logical comparison of the specific cells in another cell and it claims they are not the same even though the values are exactly the same. The only thing that seems to work is if I manually type over the value pasted from Access with the same value that is already in the cell. Then the VLOOKUP works. However, I am not about to go typing all these values manually. That's why I used an Access query. How do I get Excel to recognize that these values indeed match?

Is there a way mimic the vlookup function of Excel in Access using SQL? What I am trying to do is create a table with planning values and based on the field title to grab a particular value in the two-column table.

how i can export the data from Access to excel using Access VBA for the specified sheet using data linkage with access database. Like we used to do it manually in excel as external data from access.Like we have some codes for linking excel file to database mentioned below;
DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acLink, , "region", "F:DB PracticeBook1.xlsx", False, "region"
Can we have something like this to link database table in excel file automatically.So that the excel size won't be that big and also it saves processing time.

I'm trying to add a column to my make-table query that will give me the sum total of all rows in the source table which have a matching property.
For example all my orders have multiple lines and I'd like to have this column search the entire table for all the matching orders and then put the same total $$ amount in that column for all rows with the same order number. This is very easy to do in excel using a sumif command and I have played around with the crosstab query in access to no avail for this purpose.
If anyone has some advice to point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it.
Thanks,
Rob

I need want to use the vlookup function in Access 2010 when creating a query. I am doing this as an expression in design view of my query.
I want the field in which I am creating this question, to first, ask what state I am looking for (I have put this in the criteria box of the field "[State]"), then search another table (I have it created already, it is a list of the states) for that state and plug the cell with the name of that state into this new query cell.

I am working on recreating an excel file in access. My excel files uses the Vlook up function to get data from a table for calculations.I am calculating Fruit Solids.
=VLOOKUP(BRIXVALUE,'Brix Table'!$A$1:$F$752,6)*QUANTITY
(BRIX VALUE references a cell, and quantity references a cell just used the names instead of cell references).The Brix table has 751 entries. The headers for the following tables are "Brix, Gravity, Weight, GFL, LBS, FS/Gal".So the look up table takes the BRIX value, finds it in the first column then takes the value in the 6th column(FS/Gal) then multiples that by the Quantity inserted in the other table. I didnt create the Vlook up access form so I am trying to get an understanding and recreate it in access.
In access i made a table called BRIX to store the Brix table information like the one in excel.Then i have fields in a different table where you enter the quantity, and brix value of the product. I now need to make the Vlook Up function in excel work for my access data.

I run a database for defect detail, tracking, and resolution. Often times we have the same type of defect occur multiple times before the problem is resolved. Currently the process is that every time a defect occurs, it gets entered into the database, and whenever it gets solved, those who have solved it have to go to the database and mark it as complete.
However, since every time a problem occurs, a record is created, the people who mark issues as complete have to go through and find all similar records of problems which are basically the same problem and mark those as complete as well.

I have 3 tables, with the same field in each of the three tables. I need to find numbers (within those fields) that are similar in all 3 tables. If a number appears in all 3 tables, then all the data for that number need to be pulled from each table and placed in one row, all corresponding to that one number.
I can get this to work for 2 tables, using a query, but not three.

I work for a voluntary organisation in a hospital environment. Older patients coming into A&E will get sent a letter from us offering help.
We send out about 3,000 letters a year and have just over this number of records on our simple Access 97 database.
The problem I have is when we enter data using a Form in the field Address Line 1 if we have sent a letter to this address before I want somehow for the program to inform me of this. However, I do not want it to stop me from entering the same address again so I can't use the No Duplicates option. The reason being, we may have sent the patient a letter six months ago in which case we would want him to receive another but if we only sent him a letter say 3 weeks ago then we wouldn't send him another. Alternatively, his wife may now be a patient and will get sent a letter.
At present we look at the admissions list, sort our table into Surname order and check if they have been sent one previously, however this is very time consuming and would value anyone's thoughts.
Unfortuantely, I can't program so tend to use the design features and wizards of Access 97
Does this makes sense?
I appreciate the time any of you may take in answering this Thread. As you can see I am a newbie to this. Thank you in advance.
Robin

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 have a Access DB created. I have a field, which is a dropdown list. The users can go in to a form and manually create a record into the table etc.
However, i've some data that I'd like to import into the DB.
This data is in Excel.
When i import the data, everything is fine but the column that has the information for the dropdown field does not import.
so to clarifiy, the field in the DB is a dropdown list.
the field in the Excel data is just a plain text entry.
is there somehow i can import this data?

I have a quality control database that has a QCEntry table that contains information about each sample the QC technician takes from production. This table has a one to many relationship with the TestResults table, where the tests performed on the sample and their results are stored.
QCEntry table is structured like
Code:
EntryID Product Lot Number Day Time
1 AB-500 121323 12/23 5:00
TestResults table is like
Code:
ResultID Entry ID TestName TestResult
1 1 Carbonblack 50
2 1 MFI 10
My question is: Is there a way modify large amounts of data like this using a query or some other method to look like this? Kind of denormalizing the tables?
Code:
Product Lot Number Day Time Carbonblack MFI
AB-500 12323 12/23 5:00 50 10

I am trying to automatically import student data from excel into an access relational database structure to use the data to report progress in an ongoing manner.I have managed to import an excel sheet with the raw data and I analysed it through the wizard and have produced a clean relational database with the data.
I was wondering, now that I have the access database structure defined, is there a way to now import new data from another excel file (new data with same headers) to the newly created relational database? I was hoping to append to the existing data with only new data from the excel sheet.
I have an excel file with Student names and what units they are enrolled in. I also have fields where results are shown with the date. So the data looks like:
Joe Bloggs Unit1 PP 1-01-2013
Joe Bloggs Unit2 PP 1-01-2013
Joe Bloggs Unit3 PP 1-01-2013
I have attached a picture showing the structure of the relational database that works.

I am working on a project where I need to upload selected data from multiple sheets of an excel file. Here is an example of what I want.
1. I want to create a table in Access with around 10 columns
2. Column 1 should be populated with the date field found in A2 cell of sheet 1 of the excel file
3. Column 2-5 should be populated with the columns B2-E200 in sheet 2 of the excel file.
4. Columns 6-7 would be populated based on values from columns 1-2 of the table. Basically Column 6 should be Column 1 date plus 60 days.
5. Column 8-10 would be user generated after the excel is imported and the user should have the ability to attach around 5 files to each row.

importing data from two excel sources to one table. I have a table with: Unit, Info1, info2, info3, info4, info5, info6, info7. I have been able to import from the first file which has all of the unit information-'info1-5'. I need to import another file to fill 'info6-7' based on specific unit numbers. I have created two excel tables the first with the headers "unit, info1-5" and the second with the headers "unit, info6-7." The first works fine and adds all the data I want it to, but when I try to do the same with the second it doesn't add any new data.I cannot add the last two fields to my first spread sheet because it would involve sorting through 700+ units and adding the data manually to 400+ of them.
