Importing Excel Sheets
Jul 9, 2007
I have a program I'm updating that I need to be able to import excel sheets from a lot of different sources and add them to a table in a db which sorts the normalization.
my problem is the sheets come from so many sources and have different formats and column names/Locations.
does anybody know a way where I could setup say a table specification and maybe run some automation with excel to move the data into the correct fields in access.
or have any suggestions.
thanks
mick
p.s. is there a way around the 63k rows limit for importing excel?

I've been trying to load data from multiple excel worksheets in multiple workbooks into one table in Access. The first one loads fine, but after that I get errors and can't load anything else. All of the sheets are in the same format, so that shouldn't be the problem. Every solution I've tried has been a bust. All I want is to take all of my data and put it into one big database. Any suggestions?

Ok..
I firstly just need to know if this is possible.. and if so.. if anyone has any example programs on how this can be done.
I have to create a large number of excel sheets with data from tables.
I need to have formatting (Image at the top, certain lines have to be highlighted.. etc).
Can Access export into excel with formatting? Or can I do it through VBA?
I need to have a lot of workbooks, most of them need multiple sheets.
I've never really had to work with access and excel in this way. Usually I have excel read an Access database, or have Access link/import an excel sheet.
I've never had to generate many sheets like this before.
Anyways, thanks for the help.

Code:

I have a report generated per insurance company selected. There are around 10 insurance companies.
Is there a way to run the report and export it directly to Excel (I don't need the report in Access) for all companies where each company will be in one spreadsheet? So, 10 companies, there will be 10 sheets in the Excel file.
Is it possible?

I have two reports that I import into Excel.They both show the locations in the warehouse where our product is supposed to be located. Over years of lack of maintenance they no longer match.What I would like to do is link these two sheets in Access so that the information can be updated as I progress and correct the information.Both have a common row or field called Locations. The problem is that some of the locations doesn't exist in both of the sheets. One of the sheets also has duplicated records for the same location.
I assume that I need some type of query to accomplish this; I have copied and pasted some samples of the information in the spreadsheets as well as the results that I am looking for.

I'm having trouble appending an excel sheet into my access table.
I have 8 columns in my excel sheet:
1- full_name (short text)
2- alias (short text)
3- email_address (short text)
4- user_ID (short text)
5- Location (which is annotated using numbers 1,2,3,4 etc.) (number)
6- active (yes/no)
7- TRI (yes/no)
8- Another user ID (Short text form)
I am trying to append this data to an existing table in excel with the EXACT same column names.
I can append each column from my excel sheet separately and they will appear on the access table, but once I try to append all of the columns at the same time, so the records are not placed in different rows, I get a message saying "Script out of Range"
I cannot seem to figure it out since they can be uploaded individually.
Just to clarify, the excel columns are formatted to the access columns.

I 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 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.

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 a number of Excel spreadsheets (data sources) hosted on Sharepoint that I need to link to one single Access database.
At first. I cannot link the spreadsheets directly to Access because Access cannot read the spreadsheets on SharePoint to make the links.
Secondly, I can export the spreadsheets from SharePoint to a local folder on my PC and keep them 'refreshed'. The problem with this is that I cannot link Access to the local refreshed spreadsheets because of the (auto) extention .iqy. Access does not know the extention .iqy and hence the two cannot be linked at all.
Thus: How do I link an Excel spreadsheet hosted on SharePoint to MS Access.

My goal in Excel was to combine them all into a single Pivot Table which I did. The issue is everytime I add a sheet I need to redo the Pivot Table, which would be a hassle as I will continually be adding sheets. I'm hoping that there is an easier way this could be done using Access. The individual sheets are emailed to me and then I put them into one Excel file, is there a way to take that Excel file with all the sheets and import it to Access and be able to sort the data as I would with a Pivot Table in Excel?

I'm importing data from Excel to Access using Access VBA which works fine that sheet name is first sheet in workbook. However, if multiple sheets exists in the workbook and that particular sheet can be 2 sheet, 3 sheet or any sheet. In that case how to search particular sheet name and import in access. Below is the code I have used for importing the data.
Code:
objAccess.DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acImport, acSpreadsheetTypeExcel9, _
sTmpTableName, sInput_Dir & "" & sInputFileName, True, sFile1Wks & "!"

some code I've come up to in order to import multiple excel files each of them with a different number of worksheets into an access table. The procedure is called from an Access database. The problem I have with the code is that when it encounters a workbook with only one worksheets (e.g. Sheet 1) it gives the error that "Sheet 2$" is not a valid name. When geting to a workbook with 2 sheets it says that "Sheet 3$" is not a valid name and so on and so forth. Is there a way to "check" the number of sheets in the workbooks and when it has only one sheet to transfer it and go to the next file?
Below is the code:
Code:
Sub ImportExcelFiles()
Dim strFile As String 'Filename's
Dim strFileList() As String ' File Array
Dim intFile As Integer 'Number of files
Dim filename As String
Dim path As String
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
path = "D:Tranzactii"
[Code]...

I have an access query with around 10 columns. One of the columns is city. There are total of 5 unique cities. I need a macro for the button in the access report that will export the data from the access query to the ONE excel workbook in such a way that each city filtered data from access is exported to city name worksheet. So Excel file would have in total of 5 worksheets with the relevant city data.

I am trying to create a database by compiling records from multiple excel sheets. however, since most of the clients still uses the excel sheets to enter records, I am thinking if it's possible to create a linked table in access from these excel sheets that are hosted on an online server.
also is it possible to merge multiple linked tables together? if they have the same field range, so they will append when the linked tables gets updated.

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).
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.
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
Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim blnHasFieldNames As Boolean, blnEXCEL As Boolean, blnReadOnly As Boolean
Dim lngCount As Long
Dim objExcel As Object, objWorkbook As Object
Dim colWorksheets As Collection

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?

Hello,
I have a table that I would like to update with information from a spreadsheet. The table are all of the property records for the county I live in. The table has a unique data field for every record called a "PIN" (Property Indentifier Number). It is in this format: 12-3456-78-90. Because the PIN's were hand entered, sometimes there is a space between the dashes and the numbers, but each PIN is different for every record.
The data from the spreadsheet I want to import has updated sale information for the property records in my table. I want to associate the PIN's in the spreadsheet to the PIN's in my table and only import the new owners name, sale date, and sale price from the spreadsheet to the table.
How would I do this import? It is probably straight forward, but I am a newbie with Access.
I am concerned that because the PIN from the Speadsheet was typed differently from the one table, the import won't work. The numbers are the same, there are just spaces between some of the numbers and dashes.
Thanks

There are some web forms where people can submit work requests to my team. The data is fed into Excel in .csv format. Each request adds a new row to the spreadsheet. Nothing ever drops off.
I am having problems getting that data into my "final" Access tables without repeating the data with each subsequent import/append. There is no unique identifier in the Excel file, only the raw data, all fields of which could be duplicate across requests.(requestor, phone, request by date...) In my Access tables, I have the same fields as in the Excel file, along with an AutoNumber primary key and some additional fields where we can enter when work began and was completed and to who it was assigned.
Say for example 5 requests come in and thus create rows 1-5 in the Excel file. I then import the data into a temp table, and then append to my final table. Works. But say an additional 2 requests come in...I then do another import and append and my final table ends up with rows 1-5 AND 1-7.
I was thinking composite key of some sort, but none of the fields lend themselves to that. Plus I need the ability to edit some of the imported data once it hits my final table (ex: changing a request-by date or request detail), so a field by field comparison of the import table to my final table to determine uniqueness probably won't work either.
I'm thinking the solution would be to add a unique identifer at the source level, but I'm pretty much left to come up with a solution in Access as the web team's resources are unavailable for a few months.
Any ideas to get me started???
