Column A in Spreadsheet is AlphaNumeric and Numeric. When I link to the worksheet, it displays the Alphanumeric entries but shows #Num! for the numeric entries. I have tried changing the format of the cells from number, general and text but get the same results. How can I show both alphanumeric and numeric in a table?
EXAMPLE:
DC100900
AA999111
11199922
Thank you in advance for any assistance!
Now this is not like me, posing a question, but I thought its about time I codes the app correctly.
My app opens up any given spreadsheet. The first task is to establish the last row used in the spreadsheet. Normally you would loop until there is nothing in a cell in column A, whatever.
However the way the spreadsheets are provided there may be pleanty of blank rows. I have tried using the Edit GoTo Special LastCell and converting it to a macro
But when I run this VB it does not like it for some reason.
I am sure someone out there has come up with a solution by now.

I need to find the latest of several date fields in a SINGLE record of a query. The Max function seems only to work for a single field across several records in a query. However the worksheet function Max suggests I can use it for in-record fields but it does not work in queries. It is called a Worksheet Function but what is an Access worksheet? I know what it is in Excel but not Access. Neither Help nor two thick reference books even mention worksheets.

I need to pull data from specific worksheets in Excel from Access. I have code to get the data from a worksheet, but the sheets themselves have dynamic names that I will not know until runtime.
There is one worksheet called "Template" that is consistent. I will need data from every sheet after that one, regardless of its name.
So basically I need to find which sheet "Template" is, find all the worksheets after that one and get their names. Then I can use my existing code to loop through each existing sheet (by name) and pull the data I need.
I'm thinking this is somewhat simple--there has to be some command to find all the worksheet names, but I haven't found it yet.
Any help is appreciated!
I am currently trying to copy a tab from one workbook ("List.xls") to another ("IGEN_QC.xls") but I keep getting an error:

I'm trying to make hyperlinks to specific pages of a workbook to excel. If I put the hyperlink of the form as follows then works properly: C: Users Desktop test.xlsx # Sheet2!A1 -> leads me to Sheet2 document "test".The big problem comes when the leaves have spaces in its name, that is, if the sheet is called Sheet 2:
C: Users Desktop test.xlsx # Sheet 2!A1 -> does not work.
C: Users Desktop test.xlsx # 'Sheet 2'!A1 -> does not work.
I've lost two shapes in a worksheet, and can't find them because they are formatted with no fill and no borders.
There are a number of other shapes in the sheet which are formatted and so are visible.
How I can find my two runaway shapes? It's important because they have macros assigned, and so a user may find himself clicking on them unexpectedly, with unfortunate consequences.

I have written the following program code:
Dim xlApp As New Excel.Application
Dim xlwrkBk As Excel.Workbook
Dim xlSheet As Excel.Worksheet
Dim strXLS As String
strXLS = "c:AccessMyfile.xls"
Set xlwrkBk = xlApp.Workbooks.Open(strXLS)
[code]...
The program is stopping at " Set xlSheet = xlwrkBk.Worksheets("singles")"
and I am receiving the following error box:
Runtime error 9
Subscript out of range.
I don't understand this error because I am using the same program code with another Excel file in another module and it works perfectly.
I am new to MS Access and have been trying to use VBA to import a specific worksheet called "Access" in an Excel file (from about 400 users) into a single table. I want the code to search through one folder and import the "Access" worksheet in each Excel workbook within that folder. Each user has the same worksheet name. Here's my problem. I got this VBA code from: AccessMVP where KDSnell gave examples of how to import Excel worksheets into MS Access Tables.
Sub ImportExcel()
Dim strPathFile As String, strFile As String, strPath As String
Dim blnHasFieldNames As Boolean
Dim intWorksheets As Integer
' Replace 3 with the number of worksheets to be imported
' from each EXCEL file
[Code] ....
When I execute the code. Nothing happens. I go to the table and find nothing....or I get Runtime error 3011, where MS Access can not find the object "Access". Also, is it possible to update the table without duplicating records?
I'm using Excel 2010 and Access 2010.
I am having an issue with an Access import. It worked correctly bringing in a sharepoint spreadsheet until a date field was added to the spreadsheet and the structure to the database. Now it drops any additional fields that are added. At first I thought if I added a filler field after the field I needed that it would still drop the last field but it dropped them both. If I insert the field in the middle of the spreadsheet....(where I really want it). It drops the last field of the email address. Which I need to send out notifications. I have tried designing a complete new table and importing it, but it continues to do the same thing.
Not sure if my problem is with the spreadsheet or Access. Somehow it is still looking at the old structure when I import even if I create a new table. Not sure what is happening.
Hey folks.
I have an Access db needing populated via a worksheet with unknown # rows and known # of columns. Before pulling this data in I must do a row count to determine how many records will be added to the db. Otherwise, it would be a very simple thing to just copy the contents of the worksheet over.
Known:
- Only using DAO.
- The access table is already created matching the column count in the worksheet.
- The spreadsheet will have an unknown row count.
- Some rows in the spreadsheet will have various cells empty.
- A completely empty row will mean EOF.
Need:
- I need to determine how many rows are in the spreadsheet before copying into db.
Problem that occurs from attempt:
- Overflow issue. I seem to be counting every single row on the worksheet, even though only 2 contain data.
Any ideas out there? Pasting below my latest attempt.
Dim strStorage as integer
strStorage = CLng(xlsWST.Rows.Count)
Thanks folks.

Hi there,
I'm pretty new to Access so I hope this question is not to simple/stupid ;)
Ok, I have an Excel Worksheet that I want to import into an Access Table. The column headers are identical! The only problem is:
- the Access table looks up a couple of the columns from other Access tables. When I try to import the Excel data, Access does (properly) report an error.
- Error: the records from the Excel file were added to the Access table but not all values were imported (no values were imported into the lookup columns...)
Any idea how I should procede so that I can import my data into Access?
Thanks!

I am using Access and Excel 2007. This Db is for a mental health practice to track and store the paper questionnaires that the patients fill out. The data then needs to be exported to Excel so that it can be imported into a proprietary software that analyzes the data and recommends treatment plans. (It does NOT play nice with Access, forget it.) There are many forms and all of them are fine and export to separate worksheets no problems.
Now for the problem child: One form has 493 fields. Obviously I could fit that into two tables, but it seemed cleaner to use a main form and main table with the patient information (ID_Number, Name, Date, etc.), then tabbed subforms and separate tables for each “section” of the questionnaire (School, Work, Home, etc. There are 11 tables/forms in all.) These tables are all related by the ID_Number. The problem is the export. I need all 493 fields to write to one worksheet in order. This would of course involve removing the ID_Number field from all the tables except the main one. A query obviously can’t handle that many fields. VBA I can TransferSpreadsheet but then each table goes to a separate worksheet.
I’m thinking maybe calling some SQL code that will drop the unneeded fields and keep appending the data to the worksheet one table at a time? Of course the rows would somehow need to be defined WHERE ID_Number = ID_Number so that the same patients information is all on one row.
I have an access 2010 database that looks after all the engine data for a fleet of engines. Each engine has a unique serial number and that serial number is displayed in a test box on a form using a search function.
Each engine serial number has a corresponding excel worksheet where the engine data is displayed as a graph.
Is there anyway that I can have a control button on the form that will allow me to display the excel spreadsheet corresponding to the engine serial number displayed in the text box?
I have a function which exports some data to Excel, performs some work, and then attaches the final report to an e-mail. As a result of various temporary columns being added / removed (for formulas to determine scope etc.), the main sheet ends up scrolled to the bottom of the used range. Before I attach it to the e-mail, I want to scroll the sheet back to the top-left corner (A1).
Code:
Public appExcel As Object ' Excel Application object (late-bound)
Dim objWorksheet As Object ' Excel Worksheet object (late-bound)
objWorksheet.Activate
With appExcel
With .ActiveWindow
.ScrollRow = 1
.ScrollColumn = 1
End With
End With
It worked up until this week, when I had to make some changes to the rest of the code to refine the output. Now, when it hits the ".ScrollRow = 1" line, I get RTE 91..how I can get the sheet to scroll to the top-left before I save it? (Such that, when subsequently attached to the e-mail, the recipient will open the workbook at the top-left cell and not sacrolled to the bottom).
I'm currently stuck on trying to create a worksheet which calculate the balance remaining at the end of each Monthly Payment Period.
Monthly Payment Period: 1 to 300
Initial Balance: balance outstanding at the beginning of the Monthly Payment Period.
Interest: calculated by multiplying the Initial Balance by the APR (5%) divided by 12
Balance Remaining: calculated by adding the Interest and subtracting Total Monthly Payment.
The final Balance Remaining should be exactly £0.00.
I want to export a query into a specific worksheet in Excel. Have tried DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acExport, but it appears you can't specify an existing worksheet or cell range with a query. Some have said tables only. I want to assign this export task to a command button.
The variables are:
Query name = TrainingDataQ
Excel workbook path & name = C:UsersmeDesktop2015AccessExportTest.xlsm
Desired Excel worksheet = RawData
I think thats all you will need to know. The data in the query varies but would be no more than about 500 rows.
Also for the next time i want to run the export, some code to open that same excel file and delete the data in the RawData worksheet so that i can export new data from Access?
I am currently working on a form that exports a query that changes after a user set filter is applied, and am able to get the filter to apply and the query to export. The problem I am having is that the worksheet that the query is copied into retains all previous data, and if the earlier query export included more records, they remain as they were, is there any way of getting them to be blank.
I want to export my query onto a worksheet that has current data, need to delete current data or delete worksheet so that only the selected data is shown.
My code currently is:
Private Sub Command67_Click()
Dim strWhere As String
Dim strFile As String
Const strcStub = "SELECT NomT.shkFirstName, NomT.shkSurName, NomT.shkCompanyName, NomT.shkAdd1, NomT.shkAdd2, NomT.shkPostCode, NomT.shkRegion, NomT.shkCountry, NomT.shkAdd3" & " FROM NomT" & vbCrLf
With Me.FilterSub.Form
[Code] .....
I have been trying to import an excel sheet (a specific excel sheet in the workbook) using this method but I get an error:
DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acImport, acSpreadsheetTypeExcel9, "Customer", "C:Download.xlsx", True, "CustomerFormatted"
where "CustomerFormatted" is the sheet I am trying to import in to the "Customer" table.
The error I get is Run Time Error 3011, The MS Access engine could not find the object "CustomerFormatted" make sure its name is spelled correctly ....
Is there any other way I can import an excel sheet in to an access table?

I have a database with a number of linked tables that are linked to tables in different databases (not a back-end).for example, I have table1 that is linked to table1 in K:databasedb1.mdb.table2 linked to table2 in S:datadata.mdb.and so on...
However, recently we have moved all our databases to a new location.
K:databasedb1.mdb is now residing in O:masterdatabase
and S:datadata.mdb is now residing in O:masterdata
and so on...
I'm now in charge of relinking all those tables to point to the new location.I would do this in linked table manager one by one but we have 100s of tables linked to multiple different databases in different location.is there a way to create a VBA code that will automatically do this re-linking process?
so,
1. find unlinkable tables
2. search its new location under O:master
3. re-link it to the new location
Database names and tables names have not been changed. Just the location of databases.
Hi,
I have recently been doing a lot of work on this area. Im able to export to where i want to and run macros through the VBA code inside of Access to edit the spreadsheets. This is ok if your making a new excel workbook/worksheet.
But what im stuck on is exporting to a so called template in excel. I can export to it at the moment but creating a new worksheet, in which i have to then cut and paste the data into the correct worksheets through code and then delete the worksheet that i had been working from (which is annoying because you have to confirm the deletion of this worksheet, which is why i couldnt really do the process this way).
What i want to know is there a specific way of telling the data you are exporting from a table/query/querydef to go into a certain worksheet and into a certain cell. For example; a list of names, i want all the Surnames to go into a worksheet called "Claim_Breakdown" and start from cell "A15" downwards until they have all been exported into the worksheet.
Anyone have any ideas on how i could achieve this? Thanks.
I have three Queries and I need to export three queries into one workbook but different worksheet,
Currently I am using ExportWithFormatting , but the result came out is three different workbook .
Is there any way I can export to one workbook ?
I am trying to build a Form that will show an estimate (then eventually will be moved to a project if customer and employee aggree to price and project) in a Form F_Estimates is a M_Customers(Customer_ID) (Based on a Table) and thier info in a Subform. Also is the "projected costs" from parts out of the Parts(Part_ID) (Based on another Table) in a second Subform as a list that I need to calculate $$$ in
(Dang that still sounds evil and definately NOT understandable even after edit... so)
Here's some basic info
Tables
EstimatesandParts - Table
EstimatesandParts_ID : Autonumber
Estimate_ID : Number
Part_ID : Number
Parts - Table
Part_ID : Autonumber
PartNumber : Text (not a number due to some part#s have letters in them)
PartName : Text
Unit Price : Currency
Description : Text
Estimates - Table
Estimate_ID : Autonumber
InvoiceNumber : Text (again can have letters in it)
EstimateDate : Date/Time
EstimateTime : Date/Time
Employee_ID : Number
Customer_ID : Number
ProblemDescription : Memo
Customers - Table
Customer_ID : Autonumber
FirstName : Text
LastName : Text
CompanyName : Text
Address : Text
City : Text
Province_State : Text
Postal_ZIPCode : Text (CDN Postal codes are letter num letter...)
you can see the link table in the EstimatesandParts Table
Now I want to use that link to populate a subform in the F_Estimates form
Forms
SF_Customers - SubForm
(all boxes atm are text boxes on this form till I figure out the Parts section then will use same base for this so I can pick any customer in the database to be the customer for this estimate. Also will have ctrl button for making new customer with customer form and a refresh on Focus Gain bit of code)
FirstName
LastName
CompanyName
Address
City
Province_State
Postal_ZIPCode
SF_Parts - SubForm
Default View -Continuous Forms
(want it to be a list of parts that I can grab prices and descriptions from then in a bit of code to calculate a cost of parts)
Part_ID : Combo Box
Control Source - Part_ID
Row Source Type - Table/Query
Row Source - SELECT Parts.Part_ID, Parts.PartNumber, Parts.PartName, Parts.UnitPrice, Parts.Description FROM Parts ORDER BY Parts.Description;
(Pulls info from the table Parts for input into a list of parts to be used on that project)
PartName : Text Box
UnitPrice : Text Box
(here's where I run into problems due to the fact that the form is not based on the parts table but rather the link table EstimatesandParts so I can't propogate the info to the 2 other text boxes, ps I dont care if they cant be text boxes and have to be linked or some other type I'm not "set" just need to find out how to make it work )
(have tried a couple things to complete this task)
Me.txtPartName = Me.Part_ID.Column(2)
Me.txtUnitPrice = Me.Part_ID.Column(3)
(works AWSOME ... for ONE ROW then propogates the second selection to the first and second and third selection to first second and third and so on ...)
(tried to make control source for the txtPartName to)
=Forms!Parts!Partname
(Doesnt exist .. akkk, cant use ActiveForm either as it doesn't focus on the SubForm but the MainForm ... cry)
F_Estimates - Form
Estimate_ID
InvioceNumber
EstimateDate
EstimateTime
ProblemDescription
(all basic Text Boxes)
Employee_ID
Customer_ID
(Combo Boxes Select Customer and Employee from list of present ones of each)
SF_Customers
SF_Parts
(Both SubForms on the main form)
Now this is an Exerp from my entire Database I like to work on one small problem at a time and I have made this its own little database till I figure out the problem then I will bring the info I learn back into the rest of the database and go from there ...
Hope you can help I have a feeling I will need to make a recordset and go from there but I'm just not able to wrap my head around that for some reason
Thanks in advance for ANY and ALL help that I get from here
Hi,
I have an Access 2000 database with some linked tables. When upsizing the database I selected 'Save password and user ID with attached tables'.
Therefore in the Linked Table manager after each table in brackets I have the name of the database to which the tables are linked.
I am now wondering if I want to link the tables to a different database how do I change the database name, which is in brackets after the table name.
If I select a table and select 'prompt for a new location each time' I am getting prompted to select a different DSN. At the moment I don't have a DSN and I don't want to have to set one up.
I imagine that the database name and the user id and password I entered in the upsizing wizard are stored in some configuration box but I don't know where I can access this.
Can anyone point me in the right direction??
Thanks
