View RepliesI want to import only the information from an excel sheet like the one below where the answers for Q1 and Q2 are No and Yes respectively.

I'm using this code below that is working but importing all cells:
Private Sub Command31_Click()
DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acImport, _
acSpreadsheetTypeExcel9, "CustomerRecords", "C:Documents and SettingsmstaffordDesktopCustomerRecords.xls", True, "C1:I20"
End Sub
What do I need to add?
Can anyone help with this?
I will routinely be sent a Excel 2000 spreadsheet with multiple worksheets and each worksheets data is to be imported into a related named table in a MS Access 2000 database. No of course I have been using Transfer Spreadsheet to perform the imports but to make sure I get all of the data I use the range A1:AZ65536 (65536 of course being the maximum number of rows available in a Excel 2000 spreadsheet).
What I would like to do however, is just import the necessary number of rows not all 65536!!! Is there a way in code of working out how many rows in the A-AZ column range contain data?
It occured to me that if I linked a table to each worksheet then this would only display the necessary rows and I could count them however, once you have specified the spreadsheet location the code doesnt let me repoint the individual worksheet unless someone knows how to do this???
Any help most appreciated.

Excuse me!
i would like to know how to use browse function (like in windowXP) to select the excel file i want instead of using transferspreadsheet code.
thx!
Hi All,
Yes ok DDE may well be dead but it works for me so why change it? Basically I wondered what the commands where to format Excell cells. For example if I stamp a cell with todays date:
DDEPoke intChan1, "R3C2", Left(Now(), 10)
How would I say shade that cell black, change the lettering to white or underline or bold that cell?
Any help most appreciated.

hi, i have struggled to import some data from an excel file into an sql database..
i have used phpmyadmin and certain code snippets but have failed miserably..
basically my excel file has lots of data, and within each cell, each bit of data is in single quotes...
eg.
'jonathan' '23' 'hardman' 'cheese'
there are no headings in the excel file (as in column or row titles) the data is just raw.
once i have made the table (with the appropriate fields and datatypes for the csv file) how can i import that data into a table using ms access???
So I have had Access for all of one day now. I am trying to import an excel file into access as a table. I successfully imported the first file but the second file gives me an error that says "An error occurred trying to import file ____. The file was not imported." What are the possible reasons this error has occurred? Both excel files I am importing are in the same format, so I am confused as to why one worked but the other did not. Thanks for any help.
View 2 Replies View RelatedHello,
I have an Excel file that I use to enter data. About half the columns are validation cells to minimize human error. The validation cells are in rows 2-200. I then import the data into Access.
The problem is that, even if I only enter or select data in one row, Access imports all 200 rows that contain validation cells. I only want the rows in which I've actually entered/selected data to be imported.
I've searched this forum, but may not be using the correct search criteria.
I've also searched Google for "Access Imports Blank Validation Cells from Excel" and other variations of the same words, and switched empty for "blank".
Can someone recommend a thread or on-line article that will give me an idea how to work around this?
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
PS. Sorry, I wasn't sure under which category to post this.
Again, thanks for your time.
I have a problem whereby I want to import an Excel file into my Access db but certain characters like >< it doesn't accept. what other options do I have?

My question is: how do I set up the table to minimize redundant data. I have several fields that match the column headings in Excel, so the data can be imported, but fields like user name, pick slot, batch # all get redundant every time I import. My file is getting unnecessarily large. I know splitting the one table into many is the right thing to do, but don't have a clue how to import the data than. any help
Thanks
Is the record is already existing in access, but a few fields are blank, is there any way to import an excel file that just updates those blank fields for the specific record?
For example,
I have an excel file that includes files that are ready to ship out. My access database already has those file names, but does not have the shipping box number. Is there any way to import the excel file into my database, have it find those specific file names and update the shipping box number field? The excel file won't be adding any new records, just appending existing records.
I am getting the message (Type mismatch) every time I try to import a spreadsheet regardless if is to add into a existing table or to create a new table,

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have an excel file that I need to prepare to create a report.It would be great if I could do this with Access 2003. This would mean that I need to import the excel file and create a table to handle this.Is there by any chance that I don't need to create a table and I can process the excel file? Or maybe automate the import of the excel file into table and only use a few of the columns so later I can create the report in access.Also what I need to do is add some columns with text in it (a standard text) that needs to add a day taken form the column to the right.
I simply would like to avoid to create a table from the import as this would make me end with a lot of tables (or mabye option to delete the table after finishing producing the report.
I am writing the following code that will first of all display column headers dynamically using "Headers" field data from Access table and then find out the sum(volume) using column header and first column values. The following code works fine to display headers dynamically in Excelsheet from Access table but doesn't display sum(volume) in all the corresponding cells. As I can't attach the Access table so I have stored data from Access table to sheet named "Access Data" as attached. The sheet2 named "Report" should populate total volume .
Code:
Public Function Inputdata()
Dim cn As ADODB.Connection
Dim rs As ADODB.Recordset
Dim r As Long
Dim i As Integer
[code]...
For instance, first table export to EXCEL CELL A1 and then second table export to the same EXCEL but to CELL A5! I simply do not know the sytax to tell ACCESS to do the correct export!
e.g. DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acExport, acSpreadsheetTypeExcel9, "EXPORTDATA", "c:EXCELSHEET.xls", True
Basically I want to import an excel file that doesn't have any column headings and the data starts on row 4. I already have a table with all of the column headings set in Access.
My research led me to create an import specification and then edit that in the 'mSysIMEXSpecs' Table to Start on Row 4 and then use that spec in VBA to transfer the file to my table. That all seems good, but it seems like an Import Spec only gets saved to the 'mSysIMEXSpecs' Table if you are importing a text file. Nothing gets saved there for Excel.

View 1 Replies View RelatedHi, I am importing a custom field (containing six digit integers, e.g. 000099, 012000, 102300, ..) from Excel. This custom field in Excel is formatted 000000.
The corresponding field in Access is a text box with input mask !000000. (the Format property for this text box is blank). However, on importing, 000099 enters as 99, 012000 as 12000 etc.
What have I done wrong! Any help very much appreciated.

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!

I've had a search through but to no avail.
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.
Access and Excel 2002 by the way.
