I have a few dozen Excel workbooks in a folder, and I'd like to import all sheets in each workbook to Access as linked tables. I have the following macro that creates linked tables from every sheet within a specific workbook, but I'd like to apply this to all workbooks in a folder.
Code:
Sub ImportAllSheets()
Dim wkb As Excel.Workbook
Dim sht As Excel.WorkSheet
Dim xl As Excel.Application

I have got an existing query which is exported to excel through DoCmd.Transferspreadsheet. In simple terms the query looks like below:
Group | Client
Group1 Client1
Group1 Client2
Group1 Client3
Group2 Client4
Group2 Client5
Group2 Client6
etc.
As some of the groups contain large number of clients, I am trying to find the code to split groups by pre-specified number of clients and export to excel, as follows:
Group1 - clients 1 to 300.xlsx
Group1 - clients 301 to 600.xlsx
Group2 - clients 1 to 300.xlsx
etc.
I have a table (tblMaster). In the table is a field called Agency. The table is 200,000+ records and there are around 35 Agencies. The table grows monthly, with potentially new Agencies added all the time.
What I have been asked to do is to have a button on a Form which, when clicked, exports to Excel a separate workbook with all the table data for each Agency in the table.
I have suggested a combo-box on the Form that passes the Agency name to a query and then exports (so they could have control of which Agency to export) but no - they just want one click, spool through the table and create the 35 (or so) exports.
When I go into design view of an Excel linked table, it tells me that I can't change some properties. When I change the format of a field from Text to Number (and from Long Integer to Integer), a dialog box informs me that the property won't be changed but saves the changes anyway?

I have 2,000 access databases that are structured the same way. I want to import and compile 1 of the tables from the databases into excel. I have a macro written that does this no problem, but I just realized it is not importing Number fields with field size of "Replication ID". This is critical to eventual be able to do the analysis I am looking to do. Is there any way to have excel import the Replication ID?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to run a report based off Data I dump into Excel from a Database I use for Property management. Once I have dumped this data I amend it for reporting purposes. The issue I am having is this data constanly gets updated and every time I dump new data it obviously overrides all the changes I had made. How can I set up access to know what data I have already imported, keep it and only add NEW data from excel? To make a little more sense in Excell Colum A is Work Order Number, B is property address, C is Works to be done. I alter the works to be done when first dump it as it requires more info and updating. I need Acess to only import new Work order numbers that are not already there and leave any changes I have made to other colums as the report will continue to evolve.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to build a DB for work at the gas company. Currently this is tracked on 10 excel flat files and I want to make this process more efficient. The company DB is oracle based and the system is not set up for me to limit views just to my information. Therefore I am trying to build an access DB to handle this.What I am doing is downloading a copy of the DB info (which includes everyones area) to an excel spreadsheet and linking this to access as a linked table so I can use this information. Unfortunately, this means it makes a linked table without a key field.
However, according to information that I have read, I am unable to use this linked table in a form because it makes the form not updateable??? Is this due to the linked table and if so, is there a work around?
The reason I link this information is due to multiple fields that are updated hourly/daily. If I turn this into a table, then I will have to either manually update these fields constantly or create additional steps in order to recreate the wheel so to speak. I don't need to be able to update the linked information in the form, I just want to see it when doing the data entry for the purpose of specific dates, previous surveys, previous survey results, and for flagging due dates. Is this possible?
So far, the only information that I have been able to research on this is how to link information or how to import excel as a table but nothing that speaks of how to use a linked table in a form or what limitations a linked table has.

So in case a error comes due to a record, i want to cancel all the changes/updates done because of that excel file.

I'm working with an A/P department that is using "legacy technology" and has no capability for maintaining notes on invoices due, etc. I'd like to give them a database that would provide them with the features they need, but I'm running into a conceptual snag.
I am able to extract from their database system all open invoices each day. For each invoice, the A/P person will make notes from day to day on approvals to pay, any problems with the invoice or related inventory or service, discussions with the vendor, etc. So, let's say on Monday they make notes on a particular open invoice. On Tuesday, they'll pull all open invoices from their system and import that set of invoices into the Access database. Some will be new, but many will already be in the table. Using the Vendor Number and Invoice Number together as the table key, I can avoid duplication into the table. But, some already in the database will not appear in the new extract because they've been paid.
So, my question is... how do I get to a point where they can do this import each day and see only the invoices that are currently open AND maintain their previously-entered notes? I thought first that there would be a query to run each day, but I don't know how to keep consistency regarding table names in the query, etc, so the query doesn't have to be edited for each new import. Would this be an append to get the new ones? If so, how do I drop the ones that are not in the newest extracted data?
A complication, of course, is that I want them to be autonomous and able to do this without my input each day.
I'm trying to automate a repeated data import event. Here's the user process I'm aiming for:
We have a handheld barcode scanner which will be used to enter orders into an excel spreadsheet with the following fields:
PatrolID, UsedDate, ItemsID, NumSignsOut
After scanning in an order, the user will plug the scanner into a computer and download the spreadsheet to a predetermined file location/name.
The user then opens Access and pushes the 'Process Order' button which imports the excel sheet and generates an invoice.
I already have the invoice process working, I'm now trying to get the data import to work. Here's the table structure:
tblSignUsed:
UsedID, PatrolID, UsedDate
tblSignUsedDetail
UsedDetID, UsedID, ItemsID, NumSignsOut
tblSignUsed Joins tblSignUsedDetail ON UsedID = UsedID
tblSignUsedDetail is the line items, tblSignUsed is the orders. Therefore, the import function has to first take the first two columns to generate an order in tblSignUsed and then take the second two columns to generate order details associated with the order which was just created.
Is there anyway I could import an excel spreadsheet to access to update an existing table? The table was created before and I'd like certain columns to be updated with certain rows from a spreadsheet.

I have an access database with a linked table to an Excel spreadsheet. I have a form based on the linked table so the presentation of the Excel date is better. The spreadsheet is used by other staff in my office to record sales which I need to register with an external organisation. What I want to do is update the spreadsheet with the registration date from my access form rather than going back into excel to do it.

I'm trying to set up an import of an Excel file. One field in Excel, "Sales Tax" has a lead space, so " Sales Tax" is its Excel name. Since I can't name a field in Access starting with a space, the only way I know to import properly is to manually remove the space from the Excel file. While this isn't actually that difficult, I'm trying to avoid this manual step if possible.

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).
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

Dim blnHasFieldNames As Boolean, blnEXCEL As Boolean, blnReadOnly As Boolean

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.
