Importing Of Data From Excel/Access To Two Tables Linked By A Querry
Jun 28, 2006
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am having the problem of importing a database from Excel/Msaccess 2000 to a Msaccess 2000 database from which the data was originally exported. The Database consists of two tables connected in a querry and the two tables has a unique primary key thru which the two tables are linked using a querry. While importing only two tables are listed in the importing wizard and not the querry.
So how to import the data to the two tables connected by a querry using a primary unique key.
I'm looking to import huge excel sheets in access, but normalization process in Access has forced me to divide all the columns in Excel to about 12 tables in MS Access.
How how could I import data from excel sheet columns to 12 different tables?
I've got an Excel sheet with +700k rows and 20 columns that I wanted to import to Access. All fields are text except the field that I want to use as a primary key, but I planned to import that as a text as well.
When I used the import wizard, I set all fields to import as text except for three that I set to memo. The wizard didn't say there was any error after importing the data, but when I checked the table, I noticed there were *a lot* of records where many fields where blank. Some fields where completely unaffected by this problem throughout the entire table, but in the rest of them, there is data missing in many records, and when there is data missing, it is not always the same fields that are missing. I have been unable to find any pattern that explains why sometimes the records were imported correctly, and why sometimes they were not.
I'm trying to perform a massive data dump. I have about 1,000 records that need to be added into my database. This is coming off an Excel spreadsheet.
I don't know if this is possible: I have a table, tblTorders, which is linked to the table, tblItems. When I open the tblTorders, I can click on the plus sign to expand and see the related data in tblItems.
How can I import data to populate the fields in both of these tables? I can't use the import function because you can only select to import it into one table.
Do I do it through a query.... I'm not sure where to go on this one.
how i can export the data from Access to excel using Access VBA for the specified sheet using data linkage with access database. Like we used to do it manually in excel as external data from access.Like we have some codes for linking excel file to database mentioned below;
Can we have something like this to link database table in excel file automatically.So that the excel size won't be that big and also it saves processing time.
how to import data from excel 2007 like' suppose the field in DB table is A, B & C and the same is there in excel 2007, now i like to get B & C filed data from excel to DB table directly (import) which may be through button at form, because i have given my user the accdr file so they cann't go into the table and paste record.
I am trying to write some code to import an excel table into access. I want to delete and append a table already in the database. I am having trouble writing the code to do this. If this is at all possible through excel, I would prefer to export the table from excel into access. Otherwise if that's not possible, a macro to import from excel will do.
I was using Excel.We do transportation, I have two columns Which means 2 Records One is from address a to address b.And another from address b to address a it's not always like that The return can be to anywhere I want to make one table called 'locations'.I can set the relationships to both fields using that table or so I think But what about the last five years worth of data I can't seem to split my data correctly.
I've been using MS Access 2007 for years to manage some Excel data. running some queries etc. Just recently I've been encountering problems when importing data into an existing table. When I do it now, I get a "Subscript out of Range" error. To troubleshoot, I imported into a new table and when doing so, the fields no longer match the column order of the spreadsheet. They all get imported but appears in a different order. I think this is why I am getting the error message. How can I go about ensuring that the data gets imported properly into my already existing table? My fields in "Design View" will match the order of the Columns in the Excel spreadsheet.
I wanted to know if anyone else is having issues with getting external data into access from excell? For some reason this function is not working for me today.
I'm trying to import data from an Access query into a blank spreadsheet (Data-Import External Data etc), but it's only giving me a list of the tables in the database and not listing any of the queries. I've never had any problem with this before - I've been able to import queries fine - so I hope someone knows what's going on.
I have a stock control database which i have nearly completed. This has Manufacturer, which is linked to products, which is linked to Sub Product(which also has field partCode). i.e. Manufacturer1 can have 3 products, and each of these products could have 5 subsystems and partcodes. Each partcode is unique to that subsystem/product/manufacturer.
I then have a pricing spreadsheet in excel, which has many tabs. A new column has been added for each item for Manufacturer,Product,Subsystem and Partcode.
I need to import these manufacturers,products,subsystems and partcodes, but into the tables with the correct relationships, i.e. product1 and product2 are products of manufacturer1 and so cannot come under manufacturer2, and so on.
I hope this makes sense, Thanks in advance for any help you can give!

The 5th row is where the problem is abbot and co will import n stop missing out the brackets (I need all the data). same for the last row A-BELCO LTD will import (HADAR LIGHTING) does not.
I face a multiple line problem when i try to import data from Excel to Access db. Is it possible to keep multiple lines of a cell after transferring to Access. Since Access see any ceel of Excel as a Field, it takes all the lines as a line in the same row.
In enclosed, you can see a sample Access document. I put a point(.) between every lines in the same field manually. Is it possible to split up those data from these points and make a new line in the same field by VBA? For example,
I have been consistently getting an error almost every month when I try to load some data that has been input into access, then I have it linked to an excel sheet so that whenever I refresh, the access data imports into excel and updates my pivots, charts, etc.
When my data entry ppl enter data, sometime they forget to enter a code, or something, and when they forget to enter that, it creates some kind of error in the query. The query still runs in access, but shows something similar to " #ERROR#" in the field IF I ever do find it in the access query. The issue is that I cant filter to find that error. I literally have to scan and scroll through thousands of lines of data to try and find this error. When I try to refresh the data in excel, the following error message pops up;
"Data could not be retrieved from the database. Check the database server or contact your database administrator. Make Sure the external database is available, and then try the operation again."
In past months I can usually find the #ERROR# by scrolling through access and finding it. Some months I have EXTREME trouble finding the error. It can take hours out of my work day. Is there any way to more easily identify which line these errors are in rather than scrolling through thousands of lines of data? Is there a way to still export the data to excel with the errors still in them?
I'm trying to use a template to track assets-specifically this template:URL....Is there a way I can link an excel doc to my database that provides all of my data, that is thereby linked to other tables within Access?I want my data to be updated as it is manipulated within the independent excel doc when I open access.
I haven't seen anyone run into this particular problem on this forum...
I'm importing data from an excel spreadsheet to an MS Access (2007) table. One of the fields in the table is a text memo field able to support more than 255 characters...
Issue: The issue is that any cell in Excel that is greater than 255 characters is truncated when imported to MS Access even though the field is a memo field. There isn't any documentation on Microsoft's website about this and I don't see any way to work around it other than manually copying the data from excel to MS Access.
I'm using MS access and Excel 2000. I have an Excel spreadsheet that contained 8 columns, the first column has all cell format as Number, the rest of the column is set as custom date format of 'dd/mm/yyyy'. When I create a linked table in MS Access, the data types does not matched my excel spreadsheet columns, the 'Number' data type is a double and I want a Long Integer in Access, and the custom date format become text datatype but I wanted a DateTime datatype. Is there any work around this? Seems like it is a common problem.
I've been given a project at work, part of which involves importing parts of a very complex SQL database in to an Access 2002 database. This is very much on the edge of my understanding of databases, so please bear with me!
All of the records I need to import are in one table, but some of the fields are linked to other tables in the SQL server. My question is, if I import the table in to Access using Get External Data/Import, will the information from the linked tables also be imported, or will I also have to import the linked tables and re-establish the link between the tables in Access?
i am creating a database that relies on data in 3 different excel spreadsheets being updated by 3 different users. that is, each person is responsible for updating the Dates for their spreadsheet.
my database needs to pull these dates to extract the most current info every time i run my query.
my question is, is linking to these excel spreadsheet a valid method in completing this task. other that that, i guess i would need to import the data form excel every time each one of the 3 users updates thier stuff.....which sounds horrible.
I have an Excel spreadsheet of data, that matches fields with two different (many-to-many linked) data tables. Can i import then separate the data into the respective tables, while maintaining the relationships created by junction tables? Or can I create a query to temporarily link the two tables and their related fields, input the data, then disseminate it to the two separate tables?? Thank you all for your input as I fumble my way thru this!
Is it possible to import data from Excel to Access?
I have a program which dumps 4 Excel files full of useful info which I need to analyse and report. Access would be an ideal tool to do this but the volume of info means it has to take the data rather than copying and pasting each section.
as the program that we use to use was free and setup for what we needed. That has the ability to create a excel sheets with the 1600 people on.
Now all the fields are different, and i'm not sure how to do it.
When importing do you get the option to put the fields in the correct place, or do i need to edit them? and then import.
Another thing the address layout with fields will be completely wrong. I believe it used separate fields for each line of the address where in my DB i use 2 fields 1 address and 1 postcode.
I am trying to import some data from excel to a new table in access. When i am running the import wizard in access i.e. File->Get External Data -> Import, as soon as i select the excel file (which has a sheetname of Sheet1), i am getting an error that i can not import since there is an invalid character 'Sheet1$'.
I tried renaming the sheetname to various other names, however, everytime i am getting the same error with the dollar sign being added at the end of the sheetname.
I am trying to import Excel data into an existing Access table. I keep my Excel spreadsheet in the same format as my Access table and when I import data that attaches at the end of my Acess table it works fine.
But I am now trying to import Excel data into the same existing table into rows that had cells left blank for entry later?
