I need to pull data from specific worksheets in Excel from Access. I have code to get the data from a worksheet, but the sheets themselves have dynamic names that I will not know until runtime.
There is one worksheet called "Template" that is consistent. I will need data from every sheet after that one, regardless of its name.
So basically I need to find which sheet "Template" is, find all the worksheets after that one and get their names. Then I can use my existing code to loop through each existing sheet (by name) and pull the data I need.
I'm thinking this is somewhat simple--there has to be some command to find all the worksheet names, but I haven't found it yet.
I'm pretty new to Access so I hope this question is not to simple/stupid ;)
Ok, I have an Excel Worksheet that I want to import into an Access Table. The column headers are identical! The only problem is:
- the Access table looks up a couple of the columns from other Access tables. When I try to import the Excel data, Access does (properly) report an error.
- Error: the records from the Excel file were added to the Access table but not all values were imported (no values were imported into the lookup columns...)
Any idea how I should procede so that I can import my data into Access?
I want to export a query into a specific worksheet in Excel. Have tried DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acExport, but it appears you can't specify an existing worksheet or cell range with a query. Some have said tables only. I want to assign this export task to a command button.
The variables are:
Query name = TrainingDataQ Excel workbook path & name = C:UsersmeDesktop2015AccessExportTest.xlsm Desired Excel worksheet = RawData
I think thats all you will need to know. The data in the query varies but would be no more than about 500 rows.
Also for the next time i want to run the export, some code to open that same excel file and delete the data in the RawData worksheet so that i can export new data from Access?
where "CustomerFormatted" is the sheet I am trying to import in to the "Customer" table.
The error I get is Run Time Error 3011, The MS Access engine could not find the object "CustomerFormatted" make sure its name is spelled correctly ....
Is there any other way I can import an excel sheet in to an access table?
I'm trying to make hyperlinks to specific pages of a workbook to excel. If I put the hyperlink of the form as follows then works properly: C: Users Desktop test.xlsx # Sheet2!A1 -> leads me to Sheet2 document "test".The big problem comes when the leaves have spaces in its name, that is, if the sheet is called Sheet 2:
C: Users Desktop test.xlsx # Sheet 2!A1 -> does not work. C: Users Desktop test.xlsx # 'Sheet 2'!A1 -> does not work.
I've lost two shapes in a worksheet, and can't find them because they are formatted with no fill and no borders.
There are a number of other shapes in the sheet which are formatted and so are visible.
How I can find my two runaway shapes? It's important because they have macros assigned, and so a user may find himself clicking on them unexpectedly, with unfortunate consequences.
Dim xlApp As New Excel.Application Dim xlwrkBk As Excel.Workbook Dim xlSheet As Excel.Worksheet Dim strXLS As String strXLS = "c:AccessMyfile.xls" Set xlwrkBk = xlApp.Workbooks.Open(strXLS)
[code]...
The program is stopping at " Set xlSheet = xlwrkBk.Worksheets("singles")"
and I am receiving the following error box:
Runtime error 9
Subscript out of range.
I don't understand this error because I am using the same program code with another Excel file in another module and it works perfectly.
I am new to MS Access and have been trying to use VBA to import a specific worksheet called "Access" in an Excel file (from about 400 users) into a single table. I want the code to search through one folder and import the "Access" worksheet in each Excel workbook within that folder. Each user has the same worksheet name. Here's my problem. I got this VBA code from: AccessMVP where KDSnell gave examples of how to import Excel worksheets into MS Access Tables.
Sub ImportExcel() Dim strPathFile As String, strFile As String, strPath As String Dim blnHasFieldNames As Boolean Dim intWorksheets As Integer ' Replace 3 with the number of worksheets to be imported ' from each EXCEL file
[Code] ....
When I execute the code. Nothing happens. I go to the table and find nothing....or I get Runtime error 3011, where MS Access can not find the object "Access". Also, is it possible to update the table without duplicating records?
I am having an issue with an Access import. It worked correctly bringing in a sharepoint spreadsheet until a date field was added to the spreadsheet and the structure to the database. Now it drops any additional fields that are added. At first I thought if I added a filler field after the field I needed that it would still drop the last field but it dropped them both. If I insert the field in the middle of the spreadsheet....(where I really want it). It drops the last field of the email address. Which I need to send out notifications. I have tried designing a complete new table and importing it, but it continues to do the same thing.
Not sure if my problem is with the spreadsheet or Access. Somehow it is still looking at the old structure when I import even if I create a new table. Not sure what is happening.
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)
I am using Access and Excel 2007. This Db is for a mental health practice to track and store the paper questionnaires that the patients fill out. The data then needs to be exported to Excel so that it can be imported into a proprietary software that analyzes the data and recommends treatment plans. (It does NOT play nice with Access, forget it.) There are many forms and all of them are fine and export to separate worksheets no problems.
Now for the problem child: One form has 493 fields. Obviously I could fit that into two tables, but it seemed cleaner to use a main form and main table with the patient information (ID_Number, Name, Date, etc.), then tabbed subforms and separate tables for each “section” of the questionnaire (School, Work, Home, etc. There are 11 tables/forms in all.) These tables are all related by the ID_Number. The problem is the export. I need all 493 fields to write to one worksheet in order. This would of course involve removing the ID_Number field from all the tables except the main one. A query obviously can’t handle that many fields. VBA I can TransferSpreadsheet but then each table goes to a separate worksheet.
I’m thinking maybe calling some SQL code that will drop the unneeded fields and keep appending the data to the worksheet one table at a time? Of course the rows would somehow need to be defined WHERE ID_Number = ID_Number so that the same patients information is all on one row.
I have an access 2010 database that looks after all the engine data for a fleet of engines. Each engine has a unique serial number and that serial number is displayed in a test box on a form using a search function.
Each engine serial number has a corresponding excel worksheet where the engine data is displayed as a graph.
Is there anyway that I can have a control button on the form that will allow me to display the excel spreadsheet corresponding to the engine serial number displayed in the text box?
I have a function which exports some data to Excel, performs some work, and then attaches the final report to an e-mail. As a result of various temporary columns being added / removed (for formulas to determine scope etc.), the main sheet ends up scrolled to the bottom of the used range. Before I attach it to the e-mail, I want to scroll the sheet back to the top-left corner (A1).
Code:
Public appExcel As Object ' Excel Application object (late-bound) Dim objWorksheet As Object ' Excel Worksheet object (late-bound) objWorksheet.Activate With appExcel With .ActiveWindow .ScrollRow = 1 .ScrollColumn = 1 End With End With
It worked up until this week, when I had to make some changes to the rest of the code to refine the output. Now, when it hits the ".ScrollRow = 1" line, I get RTE 91..how I can get the sheet to scroll to the top-left before I save it? (Such that, when subsequently attached to the e-mail, the recipient will open the workbook at the top-left cell and not sacrolled to the bottom).
I have recently been doing a lot of work on this area. Im able to export to where i want to and run macros through the VBA code inside of Access to edit the spreadsheets. This is ok if your making a new excel workbook/worksheet.
But what im stuck on is exporting to a so called template in excel. I can export to it at the moment but creating a new worksheet, in which i have to then cut and paste the data into the correct worksheets through code and then delete the worksheet that i had been working from (which is annoying because you have to confirm the deletion of this worksheet, which is why i couldnt really do the process this way).
What i want to know is there a specific way of telling the data you are exporting from a table/query/querydef to go into a certain worksheet and into a certain cell. For example; a list of names, i want all the Surnames to go into a worksheet called "Claim_Breakdown" and start from cell "A15" downwards until they have all been exported into the worksheet.
Anyone have any ideas on how i could achieve this? Thanks.
So I have 5 querys exported to an excel file (C:/File.xlsx) using transferspreadsheet.The sheet names are named the same as the query names.Is it possible to change the sheet names (in the file C:File.xlsx) to what I want them to be named in access vba? Either after I export, or possibly change the query name before it is exported (all done in vba).Like a line I would add after transferspreadsheet like oldsheetname.name = newsheetname.Also need to find out how to change field names in the excel file to what I want in vba.
I have a form with a subform.In the footer of the subform I have a combobox that get the file names of excel spreadsheets from a folder.I have a button (no code on it yet) that I want to press and import that spreadsheet into the table for the subform and associate it with the main form.
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 would like to import excel sheet that contains about 45 fields and the fields names are not well defined(not obey the Access rules). I would like to import the sheet into ms access without changing the excel sheet because i have to provide only the interface to users where they have to import sheets only. (All the time In Excel fields name are arranged and in specific order but invalid names of fields).
After 1 week the person has new excel sheet with same format and the process of importing data into ms access will be continue for whole year or more.
I have a report in Access that produces variable headers as the output is different from client to client. When exporting to PDF everything works great but when exporting to Excel these variable headers are exported with their true names. Col8, Col9, Col10 etc. And our clients insist on Excel reports. Is there a way to get the assigned name to export to Excel? Assigned names would be something like Medical, Dental, Vision or whatever is applicable to the client and is assigned to the report through VBA code. BTW, the data for the report is pulled from a cross-tab query so exporting directly from the query has its own set of formatting issues and is the reason I am using a report with variable column headers.
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Driverserror '80040e14' [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression 'Description One LIKE '%flip%''. /sbs/search_prods.asp, line 22
I know that it's becuase the field name is Access is "Description One" as opposed to "DescriptionOne" or "Description_One".
The problem is that I can't alter the actual DB table (it is part of another system that I'm attempting to integrate the site with). Is there anyway to write a query statement that will allow for field names to have spaces in them?
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?
I have a form with several data fields on it. I also have a button on the form that allows the user to duplicate a record . The reason for this duplication is so that if there will be an additional client record for the same customer, but only one piece of data will need to be changed, it's easier to copy the record and then change the one field.
However, I am getting the following message:
"some of the field names you tried to paste don't match fieldnames on the form"
and then not all data in all fields gets duplicated.
I need to figure this out, but am going nuts with it. If anyone has an idea or two they'd care to toss my way, I would be happy.
Quick question I am trying to accomplish something that I believe it is fairly simple. At least in Excel, it is. I have two tables with names. I am trying to create a formula that will compare name in table 1 with a name in table 2. If the names match (exact matches only) it will let me know. Something like =IF (NAME1=NAME2,TRUE,FALSE) in Excel. I have trying using Iif, but it returns that I cannot divide by zero. I have linked the tables, so if I query NAME 1 and NAME 2, it will only display names on table 1 that are found on table 2. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks,
