I've been asked to export an MS Access report to Excel. I'm having trouble with including subtotals, totals, etc. in the Excel sheet. I've enclosed a picture of how my report looks in Access, and was wondering if there's a way to export everything the report has into Excel......
Can anyone maybe point me in a good direction, or to a link that has info re: what I want to do?
And before anyone asks, it's for a manager who insists that everything be done in Excel, since that is what he's comfy with. Outside of that, I wouldn't be giving myself headaches, since my Access report contains everything needed.
I have a beautiful report and when printed straight from access it has nice gridlines and even gridlines null fields (which I want). However when I export to excel all the fancy gridlines and bold fonts are lost. Is there a way I can get it to export to excel what I can print in access? I would like to be able to export to excel to add some extra rows before printing but not have to do all the formatting.
I've tried printing to word, same problem as excel. Tried printing a pdf and it looks exactly the same but I can't edit it to add the extra blank rows.
Recently I set up a button to export a report automatically to Excel using the following code: DoCmd.outputTo acOutput Report, "Report1", acFormat.xls, "J:Insurance DeptReport1.xls", True.This works great, however I was wondering 2 things:
1. How do you set up to transfer multiple reports using the same button. EG I have reports named Report2, Report3, etc how do I add these to the code to export as well? 2. Is it possible to have them transfer to the one file but different sheets. EG Report1 would go to sheet1, Report2 to sheet 2, report3 to sheet 3 and so on?
Here's my problem. I run a database every monday that has several (more than 15) reports as the outcome. Due to the massive amount of information we can't build the data up every week. We need to overwrite the tables and recreate the "Reports" every week. The department I am creating this for wants to keep a snapshot on the computer of the 15+ reports instead of printing them out. But instead of simply creating a snapshot of each individual report he would like to see them in the format of one file with multiple sheets. The one file would be labeled the date the reports were created and each individual sheet would be labeled the name of the report. For example, This past monday when we rant he Db the file would have been lbld 10-3-05, and one of the many sheets would have been labeled "Selects", or "Rejects" or "Cost" and so on. Does anyone have any suggestions?
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?
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;
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 have a table of applications (200 applications), with the following columns for each application:
AppName Description BusCrit BU NumUsers
I need to export this to an excel spreadsheet into specific rows and columns and then save the spreadsheet, with it named for the application (ie, App1.xls) which it should get from the AppName column in the table. How would I do this?
I'm having a small but annoying problem exporting data to excel and then importing it back..
The problem is that when i export a table to Excel - it changes the date format from dd/mm/yy (which is what i have in Access) to DD-MMM-YY (automatically in Excel)
This proves to be a problem because when i import the spreadsheet back Access gives me a data type conversion error.
Its easily solved manually by changing the field in excel to dd/mm/yy format but annoying as the user will have to do this everytime they export and import!
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?
Hi guys, me again. Have a few functions that I would like to put into action. 1) I currently have the following code that exports multiple queries to excel. All works great I am happy to say. Currently the date criteria are hard coded into the queries. Well now my users would like to enter date ranges instead. Currently when I click on my toggle button, the users are asked if they are sure they want to start export to excel. I still want that to happen, but how can I change my code to prompt for startdate and enddate before running the export. I would rather use an input boxes to enter the date range instead of using a form. Would this be possible?
2) Right now excel is displayed on the screen while the export is in process, how can I hide excel and then have it appear after its done with export. If the user clicks within excel during export, it sometimes freezes. And how can I apply my module for the progress bar to display the progress of the export. I have provided the code of the progress bar that I am using, that I found on this forum.
Many thanks for any suggestions.

I tried searching the forums and haven't come up with anything that sounds like what i'm looking for. I have a VERY simple database that has a list of personnel and whether or not they are available for an event. I would like to have a command button on the form where I change the availability that will export the selected personnel to an Excel file and (if possible) save it with todays date as the name of the spreadsheet. If anyone can point me in the right direction I would appreciate it :)
I have a query in access 2002 named "FMC DETAIL / MEMBER" when i export to excel 2002 with named "FMC DETAIL_member" the export says "Path is invalid"
My main point is that "/" should be replace with "_" in file name automatically. In access 97 query named "FMC DETAIL / MEMBER" when export to excel the "/" is renamed to "_" automatically.
Hi! I know queries can be exported to excel by the option "File > Export".
The fact is that I'm using "order by" options and some functions like "Month", and "Export" options appears disabled, is there a way to export this query to Excel? :confused:
I have a button on a form and when I press it I would like this to happen: Some code will be run that makes a copy of an templatefile (Excel), puts the values that comes from my query into the document and the saves it with a name that comes from two textboxes. I would also like to be able to put in some other text in the document, like two dates that I have on my form. Does anyone know how to do this ???
I would like to export a access report to excel. All rows and columns exported correctly except from text fields (missing or change to a strange number). I've also think about to write a vb script to export the result recordset of the report to the excel. But the report is a report of Sales which containing a grand total amount of the group of records. Is there a way to write a script to achieve this (the grand total amount is not include in the recordset)?
Good morning all, First, I know there have been a lot of posts on this topic already, and I've printed out several of them to try to help me solve my problem. However, I'm having a problem getting mine to work.
Here's what I want to do, I am trying to export four different queries into one workbook, separate worksheets in Excel. For example, I have qryControl, qryLocal, qryPar and qryNasco. I want to export qryControl into the CONTROL worksheet in General Ledger.xls, qryLocal into the LOCAL worksheet in General Ledger.xls, and so on and so forth. Can this be done?
I started a practice form and added a command button based on some of the information I read before, just to see if I can get a query to transfer period and I ran into some problems. Here is the code I used:
'Create Excel Instance Dim xlObj As Object Set xlObj = CreateObject("Excel.Application") 'Open the template file xlObj.workbooks.Open "C:mytemplatefile.xls" 'Save the template file with another name xlObj.activeworkbook.savesas "C:mynewfile.xls" 'Open the temp file we exported from Access xlObj.workbooks.Open "C: emp.xls" 'Select and copy all the data xlObj.activeworkbook.cells.select xlObj.activeworkbook.selection.copy 'Re-activate the destination file xlObj.workbooks("mynewfile.xls").Activate 'Select cell A1 on the first sheet xlObj.activeworkbook.sheets(1).range("A1").select 'Paste the data xlObj.activesheet.paste 'Save and close the file xlObj.activeworkbook.Save xlObj.activeworkbook.Close 'Close the other file - assumes no other Excel files are open xlObj.activeworkbook.Save xlObj.actoveworkbook.Close xlObj.Quit Set xlObj = Nothing
End Sub
I get an error message at the following line: xlobj.activeworkbook.saveas "C:mynewfile.xls"
The error is: 'Runtime Error 438' Object doesn't support this property or method.
Can somebody please tell me if I can export to four different worksheets in the same workbook and also what I need to do to resolve my error.
