How can I import from multiple tables into one table without replacing the destination table.so that the destination table consist of old data and new imported data.
For example: I have table A with date 130205 and I need to import from table B and C which the dates are 130206 and 130207. Those 3 tables already have the same column numbers and data type.
I would like to know which way is the best way to import excel data from multiple sheets in to multiple tables in access.
For example data from Sheet1 -> Table1, Sheet2->Table2, Sheet3->Table3 etc...
I have tried using this:
Cmd.TransferSpreadsheet acImport, acSpreadsheetTypeExcel5, "Table1", "C:Importedfile.xlsx", True, "Sheet1!"
Ironically, data from Sheet2 and Sheet3 seem to be properly imported in to table2 and table3, but some of the data from Sheet1 seems to be missing in Table1 after import.
Any other ways to import the data?
What I wanted to do was try and import from 5 excel sheets into one table and merge them into 1 record.
E.g. I have pupils with test results for maths, English and ICT.
I have 3 spreadsheets called Maths, English and ICT and I wanted to merge them into the test results table all under that specific pupil.
Also I've been searching how to create an import button on my form as I have locked all the ribbons but can't find a simple way, and especially if I want the user to specify the file path.
I have a production machine that writes its output to a CSV file every time it produces a good part (several times pr. day). It can produce identical part which means that the mashine will not put in another line in the csv, but just update the no of produced parts. I had to rename the attached file because you can not uploade *.csv files in the forum.
What I want is:
- When someone opens a specific Access db a tabel in the db is updated with all new data from the csv file.
My problem is: How do I make sure that I only get the new data from the Access db.
User imports data from Excel to a table but i am not sure that the user will import right data into the table.
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.e if there are 10 records to be imported and error comes while uploading 5th record, then all the 4 records updated earlier should be recalled / reversed / cancelled...
Was wondering how i can import data from a file to a table in different fields. The data inside the file is described with the number of characters and space's between. The attached file has the data.
For example in the file attached, the first four characters represent a data like 'ticket number' and maybe the third line 6 to 10 charcaters represent 'name of a passenger'.
Now how do i import these data to a table into respective fields in a table.
I have a table, which contains many fields, around 90. Out of these 90 Fields, around 40 will be imported from an Excel sheet, which has same headers as the 40 field names in my table, in which they have to get copied.
So when I import data, it copies them as new records, instead what I am looking at is, the records in Excel and in Access table has a Unique Key, so when I import data, matching with this unique key, the fields should be overwritten into those records from Excel, instead of adding new records.
E.g:
Say I have 2 records in my access:
ID(auto generated) Fab_name Issue_ID Location Remarks Data_1 Data_2 Data_3
1 Fab1 193 NY Bug OC DC MC
2 Fab2 641 DRS Error AC KC FC
Now when I am importing data from Excel with the following records:
Fab_name Issue_ID Location Remarks
Fab1 193 NY - GRM Solved
Fab2 641 DRS - SGP Forwarded
So when I import the above data into my Access from Excel, based on Issue ID, it should update the values of different fields that are imported from Excel, leaving other fields (data_1, Data_2, Data_3) as it is.
And I need this to be written as a macro, so that user just has to choose the file, which he has to import.
I made a database that in one of the forms, I like by clicking on a button the user be able to select 5 excel files with different file names (in the same directory) and then based on the imported file's names, it be stored in 5 different tables.
At the moment by using the bellow code, I can import multiple files (with the same formats) only into one table . My vba code comes as follow:
Function GetAllFiles()
Dim fd As Object
Dim strFilter As String
Dim lngItems As Long
Const msoFileDialogOpen As Long = 3
Const msoFileDialogViewDetails As Long = 2
[Code] ....
I want to make a database of diseases (need to learn them for school and would like a serchable database on my smart phone for future reference).

I have three tables: Vehicles; Vehicle Reallocated; and Vehicles Retired. I have a form that runs a query to find all the info in the Vehicles tbl that is not "Retired", not visible in the form. I then have the option to toggle to a Reallocated or Retired form. When i toggle to the reallocated form, i have the like fields in that table (ie Van #, Vin, Make etc) pulling the info from the hidden subform with the vehicle query, so i do not need to fill in repeat data. However, when i add a reallocated date and the new clinic that vehicle is for, i get the record ID for the vehicle reallocated table as expected, but when i save none of the data moved over from the query saves in the record?
How to get all the data on the reallocated form to save?
hi
i have an application that has to import data from paradox tables and create reports based on those tables. I am using Access 2003 and the paradox database is 4.0 . I know how to import a batch of files from code but my problem is that the paradox database has some tables that are split in different folders according to the month they were recorded (it's an accounting program )
so a table exists with the same name in each month folder and the problem is that they have id's starting from 0 each month so I cannot append them easily
I do not know how many tables that type I will need so I have to keep track of them through a different table so I cannot create individual queries for them.
does anyone have an idea what I could do?
thanks
I need to import 5 sheets from an Excel Workbook into one table. At the moment I have code which goes through each sheet and imports them. Using the Import wizard only enables you to import one sheet.

I 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'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.
Looking for (semi) generic piece of code that knows how to handle (semi) random XML files and structures, preferably creating tables and columns on the fly...
Or some code that will read an XML tree and genericaly will add the data to the tables it can find?
Hello everyone!
Here is my problem:
I have an Access database that contains a table with three columns (A & B & C). Field A is for code values and field B is for the value for that particular code. Field C holds the case number. I have a folder that contains the information for over 5000 case numbers. Each case number needs to be placed inside of the table. Considering there are 5000 case numbers, I dont want to use the import wizard 5000 times.
Furthermore, the text file only has two columns (for A and B).
I am trying to create a VBA that will append rows to the table by going into each file and placing the information into the table. The first row for each file contains the case number. So when the VBA runs, it should open the text file get the case number from the first row (field B on the text file) and place that in the case number field of the table for the entire file; and then repeat this action for all of the files in the entire folder.
Any help that can be provided will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
I need to import a html file automatically BUT my file has many tables in it, when I am doing the importation it asks about which table I want to import, the thing is that I always want every tables. The number of tables is variable. VBA code so it can have a looping which says to import every table in my HTML file?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have an Excel workbook with multiple sheets, all the sheets have the same headers and are formatted the same.
Problem 1 is I need some sort of loop so that all sheets will be imported, the names will vary so I can't use specific names to import.
Problem 2 is that I need to create a new TempTable based on the format of these sheets and have them all import to that one table.
I need to do some cleaning up and updating of the data before I run append queries to have it moved to a couple of permanent tables.
I know I've written the VBA to have a new table created on import and later deleted after all my queries run.

I have a database that I import data from an excel spreadsheet into multiple times daily. The table that this data is imported into has several key fields that if the data already exisits in the table, and I attempt to import data that is the same except for one or more of the key fields is different. At this time the database it creates a different record. I am trying to get the database to overwrite the data in the database.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have imported a list from Excel into my database. The primary key is long integer (Indexed no duplicates). After the (successful) import, the next primary key assigned to a new record has jumped from (for example) 15 to 30024455. Why would this be? I have compacted and repaired the database (Access 2007) in case it was some kind of corruption but with no effect. Any primary keys on tables where I have not imported data works as expected i.e. incremented by one.
