Open Ddb File With Access 2010
Sep 11, 2012I'm trying to open a ddb file with Access 2010 and Access asks for a password to the file. The ddb file is the source file for an Invoices and Estimates Pro database. Invoices and Estimates Pro won't run correctly on Windows 7 in XP mode, so we're upgrading our invoicing to a Windows7 friendly program. However, we can't upload the ddb file data from our old program into the new, we need to first convert it into csv, which i'm hoping to use Access for. However, Access is now asking me for the password, which was never set in Invoices and Estimates Pro.
Is there a way to see what the ddb file password is? Or a work-around? This will save us literally a hundred hours of re-entering all the inventory data into the new program.
How To Read PDF File In MS Access 2010
Sep 9, 2014I am way beyond my skills trying to read these files.
I am trying to read *.pdf files using VBA. I have tried using some code
Code:
Dim AcroApp As Acrobat.CAcroApp
Dim theForm As Acrobat.CAcroPDDoc
Dim jso As Object
Dim text1, text2 As String
'error occurs here stating"ActiveX component can't create object"
[Code] ....
I have set a reference to Adobe 10 Type Library and Adobe Access 3 Type library. I am using Adobe Acrobat Reader X. I now read them by converting to text file and using FileObject to read the text file and VBA text commands to get the right fields.

Feb 11, 2015I have the following code which successfully opens the dialog box with filters however when I add a function with an Excel import, the filters do not work at all (no files are shown even though they exist in the directory that's opened within the dialog box). If I manually type in the filter (i.e. *.x) it still shows the files.The function at the bottom was provided by cheekybuddha from another form, I'd be lost on getting the Excel file imported into Access.Here's the VBA code (the Function is also included at bottom):

Apr 3, 2014I am having difficulty importing a large txt file into my database, due to the first column containing a * prefix. normally i would just go through the document and delete it, but this file is quite large at over 100k records.

Modules & VBA :: Access 2010 - File Search In Specified Locations
Feb 28, 2014Previously in Excel / Access 97 / 2003 I made a little tool that would search for files in specified locations - I modified the code so that it would search for files based on what was entered in cells.
I believe a lot of the old code doesn't work in Access 2010 and it seems like a lot of the old file searching code I used to use no longer works.
Is there code available that searches a directory and lists results?
Transfer HTML That Has XLS File Format In Access 2010 Using VBA
Oct 20, 2015I have a downtime system that was created by our IT department that records the downtime of the line stops, it has export to excel button that will export the downtime to excel based off the parameters of date and time. I want to do the export then import to access for downtime analysis. The problem I am having is the programmers export it as HTML with .xls file format. and the worksheet has a date associated with it as well as the spreadsheet has a tab that contains a date and I can't figure away to import to a fixed table. So I tried the transfer spreadsheet not knowing it was in HTML, couldn't recognize the format, then I tried transfer HTML, can't find the file because of .xls file format. I know I could re-save it as a excel file but was trying to keep the steps to a min. Is there a way to import even though it has a date attached to the file and spreadsheet tab.

Is Access 2010 Performance Based On Records In A Table Or File Size
Jun 29, 2014I have an Access 2010 database .. and will be adding about 25,000 records a day to it. So it will get pretty big fast .. so 9 million a year. Is this too big for Access ?? Or is it more a issue of file size .. I know that Access 2010 can go up to 2 GB. I am interested in how I can maximize my performance and not have the database.The data is as follows .. One table. The other tables will be small, just this one will increase in size really.
Id .. Autonumber (primary key)
When .. datetime
Radio .. integer (indexed .. w duplicates)
Group .. integer (indexed .. w duplicates)
Type .. text 4
TransType .. text 2
I am considering a purge of old records if needed .. like only keeping the most previous 5 million records or some reasonable number. Like .. then I would think I should try to number my records backwards (using long int rather than autonumber and number records backwards on import) .. ie record 1 would be the most recent one and only keep the last X number of them for performance reasons.
Can't Import Excel File Into Access
Dec 11, 2004OK. I feel like an idiot but I did read the manual, Googled, and Microsoft help, but still cannot do it.
The problem is on the import feature, there is no option to choose an Excel file.
I lowered the macro security level to take it out of "sandbox" mode, I reinstalled
office and selected run all features again. I updated as well.
I tried blank databases to import to. No luck. I go to external data, import and I can choose ODBC, XML,
sharepoint or Access files only.
I am using MS Office Pro 2003. Thanks for the help.
Reports :: MS Access 2010 Report - Exporting To Excel Produces Blank Xls File?
Jun 27, 2014My report (rptBilling_STS_Summary) has three subreports (rptBilling_STS_Summary_Install, rptBilling_STS_Summary_Rental, rptBilling_STS_Summary_LDRate) that return values that are grouped by customer and calculates a total for each customer.
I need the report to export to excel for our client but every attempt has produced a blank XLS file. I have tried every export method I can think of. This is what I have tried:
Export button from external data ribbon
Export from print preview
Export via macro
Export via VBA (DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport, "rptBilling_STS_Summary", acFormatXLS, , False, , , acExportQualityPrint)
All this has produced the same blank excel file... Very frustrating...
I have searched and found a lot of information on 2007 and it requiring sp2 but all I can find on 2010 is instructional information.
Update: I copied the database to my local PC and when I export the XLS file it opens in protected view.

Modules & VBA :: Import Complex Text File Into Access
Jul 19, 2014They are receiving e-mail with some data that they want to transfer to access database to track. The one think they can do is copy past, copy paste. That is a lot of data to copy and paste. The date looks like this format
Field1
Text1
Field2
Text2 (text2 can be more than 255 char)
Field3
Text3 (text3 can be more than 255 char)
Field4
Text4
Field1
Text1
Field2
Text2 (text2 can be more than 255 char)
Field3
Text3 (text3 can be more than 255 char)
Field4
Text4
and so on.. It can be 50 records
I am thinking they can copy this to the text file. Then the code form Access grabs the text file and imports to access table with format below.
Field1 Fied2 Field3 Field4
Text1 Text2 Text3 Text4

Automatic Import Of Multiple CSV File In Access With Macro

On Error GoTo Macro_TransferCsvFileTo_RatesData_Err

where c:Documents and SettingsaggauraDesktopWIPXMLDB_JOH_FI_2011123 0.csv is the file name I want to be replaced by each of the file listed by me in the other access table.
Change Excel Headings Through Access VBA Then Import The File
Sep 17, 2014I've been able to find the code I need to import the file, but there are headers that come through from the group sending the excel file that will not import - they have a "." in them and that won't work. I need to find a way to remove the character and bring the excel header in line with the access table I'm importing to. I'm using the following to import the file:
Sub Example()
'the path to the excel workbook
Dim strExcelPath As String
strExcelPath = "C: est est esting.xls"
'import data from excel
Call DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet(acImport, _
acSpreadsheetTypeExcel8, "testtable", strExcelPath, _
True, "A1:AA11")
End Sub
And that work fine up until it hits the offending headers. what is a good, quick bit of code to plug in to alter the headers and what, if any references would need to be added?
Program Working In Access 2007 Not Working In Access 2010 Due To Missing OCX File
Dec 27, 2014 I have a program that runs under access 2007 that I use at my work. We will soon be updating to MS office 2010 and the program will not work now because a calender file .ocx was removed from access 2010. Is there a way to get the 2007 .ocx file to work in access 2010?The program I am using is a relatively simple stand-alone and unsupported app that we use to request patient arrival and departure from various radiology tests inside a hospital. No reports are made from the app other than the number of patient transports for the day.
The app is placed on a common drive accessed from any pc in the hospital. No special permissions are required. But our app does use the calendar, time and date functions in access 2007. When I tried the app on a pc with access 2010, it basically says it (access) cannot open the app because a .ocx file is not present.Is there a way to make the access 2010 calendar file work in access 2007?
Txt File Field DDMMYYYY Fails To Import Into Access'07, But OK In 2003
Apr 1, 2008Hi there anyone and everyone.
My problem concerns importing a date from a txt file. I've been doing this for years with '97 and 2003 with no problem, but with 2007 I am now getting import errors which I can't resolve. The files, either fixed width or delimited, contain date information in the format ddmmyyyy (without any date separators). After importing I receive an import error message, and the relevant field in the table is blank.
In Access '97 or 2003 I can import date information directly into an Access date/time field by using an import specification where I have set the date delimiter to blank (by default this is set to "/" , so I simply delete this to leave the box empty). Using this method a file containing "25122007" (without the inverted commas) will be imported into Access as a date, and can be subsequently manipulated as date without having to resort to any fancy reformatting tricks. Obviously the import will not be sucessful if the date delimiter in the import spec is left as "/", or set to anything else, eg "." or ":".
But now that I've updated to Access 2007 this is just not possible no matter what I do or try. I can only import a date if the txt data has a separator, and that the same separator is set in the import specification.
In some new databases I have done a couple of workarounds, importing it as text into a text field, then using a CDate(Format(CLng([date]),"00/00/0000")) type expression in a subsequent query, but this is a pain having to do it, a really backward step.
But the real pain is older databases ('97 or 2003) which have been converted up to '07; they no longer work, and there is a lot of redesign to be done unless somone can tell me what I'm doing wrong.
Unfortunately I am not able to change the format of the dates in the data I receive, so the solution has to come from my end (ie Access). Surely Access 2007 should be able to recognise 25122007 as a date? All ideas gratefully received.
I've been happily using various versions of Access since 1994 and I've learnt lots along the way, and have always previously been able to sort out problems that I've come across without resorting to a forum, but I'm now really puzzled by a problem that I have come across in Access 2007. So although this is my first post I certainly wouldn't call myself a newbie. Hopefully I have described the problem accurately (it is realy simple in fact), but very happy to provide more information if required.
Many thanks (in anticipation)
