I need to import a form to an access 2007 database (from another access
2007 database) but on the External Data menu group, under the Import section,
the Access option is greyed out (all other options are available).
I performed this same function yesterday and the Access option wasn't greyed
out.
I've also opened up yesterday's backup of the DB and the Access option is
greyed out in that too...
Any help would be appreciated.
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).
Unfortunately spent a lot of time making hundreds of pages of word tables before i realized a database would be better. See attached image or pdf. Is there a way to import the tables to Access?
I need to preserve the hierarchic info in the nested bullet point lists. E.g. under treatment i might have a point called Acute treatment, with sub-levels, Step 1, Step 2, etc. with their own sub-levels. I need to maintain this relational hierarchic info.
Hi,
I'm using Access 2000.
I use a feedback form on my website to receive my customer details by email.
Currently I print out the data and type it into my form.
I can alter my feedback form so the data in the email is seperated by comma's.
Is there anyway I could import the comma seperated values directly into my database rather than typing each one in by hand?
Or could anyone recommend a different method of transferring the data from the email please?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Many, many, many thanks!
Hi,
I want to import a contact database to outlook but for that I have to design new fields in the Outlook form. The design is no problem, and I can even enter information and save it, but when I want to import data from access, it does not show the new fields!?
What could I do? Any idea?
Thanx!

I am trying to help a person that has a 1980s DOS database called "SMART". The program "smart" will output the database in a format that Access should be able to read, but it can't read the full file.
Any obvious ideas about what might be the problem?

I'm running Access 2002 at work and trying to import a form that was created in Acrobat 7.0 and saved as a xml file. The structure and data option is selected, yet only the structure imports, no data.
In Access 2003 (which is what I have at home) I can get both structure and data. Does anyone know away around this in trying to import the file into Access 2002 or why I might be having that problem with one version and not the other?
Thanks
I am trying to import a form from another access db. The access db I'm attempting to import into is Access2000, from an Access2003 db. I've also tried to export from the Access2003 db. Neither works but I don't get an
error message. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance for your help.
WE are starting at the very basics. We used the db Wizard to set up a db for us. Now we are trying to import the data as a csv file. We keep getting an error Field 'Field6' doesn't exist in destination table 'Contacts'. We have looked at both the excel file and the table in Access and we cannot figure out what is holding us up. Please be patient, we are learning by the seat of our pants

Thanks.
:confused: Hi all - hope someone can help I dont know where to start.
I've got a cmd button that imports data from a excel sheet - that actual code is working fine, however when it runs it causes Access to freeze.
The data in imported correctly - so it must complete the process but Access locks up and has to be ended via task manager.
Any one got any clues why this is happening and how I can stop it?
This is an Access 97 database running mainly on NT and 2000

Hello All
is there a way (i guess using VBA) to import an excel spreadsheet into an access table without having to go through the wizards, if you know all the field names and other variables ??

Hello All,
I thought i would ask this question an how to import data from excel into access.
I am using sage to invoice clients and i can output this in to excel format then i would like the best and simplest way to pull the data though into access.
The data file has column headings at the first row ie A1 though to J1 and after this is the data, i have a table setup with the relivent table names, I had thought how easy this would be, but as always this was not the case.
The outputed excel sheet will vary in location so i think i need a diolog box to select the file and then some how link it to extract the data, is this right and if so how can it be achived.
Any thoughts
Alastair

I'm trying to export a database to a progam by the name of AA Planer.
I did a google on the phrase "access exprort AA Planner" and I got web page that said to "export the data in CVS format where Exel would acept it." So that brought me to the asumtion to export the data in CVS to import it to AA Plannner. Would I be right in making that asumtion.
Hi,
I want to import into an MDB table a csv file.
I'm trying to use the bulk copy table.
my function is:
SQL = "SELECT * INTO [my_table] FROM [ODBC;Driver=Micrsoft text driver (*.txt; *csv) ;Dbq=c:\;Extensions=asc,csv,tab,txt;].table.csv"
db.OpenEx( "Driver=Microsoft Access Driver .mdb);DBQ=c:\access.mdb;", CDatabase::noOdbcDialog );
db.ExecuteSQL( SQL );
when i run this function i get an error : "You cannot use ODBC to import from, export to, or link an external Microsoft Jet or ISAM database table to your database"
when i try to import in the same way a dbf file (insted the csv file) with VFP it's working well.
what seems to be the problem? how can i fix it? or if some one know how can i import a large csv file into access DB in an efficient diffrent way?
thanks ishay

Let me have an example of an Access macro importing Sql table to Access table
View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to import data from access to excel my excel file has columns say
a b c d e f g h i j k
my access table has columns
b d e f g i k
now when i run transferspreadsheet, since some columns are not there in the access table, it gives a error. how can i import this data?
Is there a way to set up a stored procedure or something that would auto import a .txt file into a table within an Access 2000 DB?
View 1 Replies View RelatedOK. 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.
Hi I have a few .csv files that i would like to upload into an access db. I saw an example for DTS, but since i dont have sql server i can't go that route.
Since i have some .csv Files where the file name changes on a daily basis, is it possible to upload them all with some wild card function. there is already a table with the fields already predetermined, and all i basically have to do is just load them all up at once.
please let me know if you have a solution.
Hey Everyone,
I have an assignment that is currently above my skill range in access.
Basicly i recieve a monthly excel spreadsheet with 2 sheets.
Both are now made into access tables.
what i want to do is make macros so that when we recieve the new spreadsheet file next month i can import the data.
my difficulty is that if i go file-->import --> select the spreadsheet, etc it allows me to choose which sheet inside of the excel file i want to import. But using the transferspreadsheet macro doesnt. so it spits me an error saying it couldnt find so and so field, etc.
basicly i need 2 macros.... 1 for each sheet. to import the new data into the respective tables.
also it would be awesome if on the import it could add a field "last imported" or "last modified", etc and put todays date, etc.
any help...MUCH appreciated.
mike
