Modules & VBA :: Bold Column Headers After Exporting From Access Into Excel?
Dec 7, 2013
I would like to export from access a recordset into Excel and bold the column headers.
My current code works for the most part, except for the bolding.
You run the code in Access module and the code does the following:
1) checks to see if the excel file is open
2) if excel file not open, it opens the file, clears existing records, and starts copying and pasting new recordset into the RAW worksheet
3) it is then supposed to bold the column headers.
bolding is not working.
Code:
Sub TestFileOpened()
Dim lastRow As Long
' Test to see if the file is open.
If IsFileOpen("c: est2003.xls") Then
' Display a message stating the file in use.
MsgBox "File already in use!"
I have a report in Access that produces variable headers as the output is different from client to client. When exporting to PDF everything works great but when exporting to Excel these variable headers are exported with their true names. Col8, Col9, Col10 etc. And our clients insist on Excel reports. Is there a way to get the assigned name to export to Excel? Assigned names would be something like Medical, Dental, Vision or whatever is applicable to the client and is assigned to the report through VBA code. BTW, the data for the report is pulled from a cross-tab query so exporting directly from the query has its own set of formatting issues and is the reason I am using a report with variable column headers.
I am trying to import an Excel spreadsheet into an Access table and running into a snag. Since the spreadsheet doesn't have column headers, I keep getting Run-time error '2391' - Field '0000000' doesn't exist in the destination table ... my table name.How can I import the data from a spreadsheet so that it ignores the fact that there is no column headers?
Here is the VBA/Module:
Option Compare Database Dim myCheck Function WebRegistration() DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acImport, acSpreadsheetTypeExcel9, "tbl_TruRewards Web Registration", "R:DEPT-BRCONSUMER LENDINGVISACardholder ActivityWeb Registration_TruRewards.xls", True, "Web Registration!F8:R50000" End Function
The data is pasted in cell B1, but there are no column headings.
Code: Dim rs As dao.Recordset Dim oExcel As Object Dim oBook As Object Dim oSheet As Object Set rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("Name of my Query")
[Code] ....
If I copy the query manually and paste to Excel I get headings, so how should I edit this code to make it do that?
Secondly, I'll need to do a lot of formatting: set some column widths, wrap text, set borders etc. Theoretically I could export the data to a preformatted template, but the output could be anything from 10 rows to over 200, so I don't know how that could work.
I have an access table and I want the code that will check two columns in the table "EnvelopeType" and "EnvelopeSize" and create headers in Excelsheet automatically. In the attached workbook, like in sheet1 the headers are already appeared, I want this to be done dynamically using vba code so that if new values get inserted in EnvelopeType and EnvelopeSize then we won't have to change the code to display more headers.
Please see attached workbook named Sample and Access table. E.g.
EnvelopeType EnvelopeSize TNT 2nd Class C5 PP1 2nd Class C5 PPI 1st Class A4 Recorded A4 TNT 2nd Class C5 PP1 2nd Class C5 Recorded A4 PPI 1st Class A4 Recorded C5
With the code it should display following headers in excel sheet:
TNT 2nd Class C5 PP1 2nd Class C5 PPI 1st Class A4 Recorded A4 Recorded C5
how data is best structured in Access.I have a table of values (for instance: weight) and I need to be able to look up a weight based on the column header (age) and row header (height).How is this sort of data best structured and accessed in Access?
I'm trying to export queries from access to excel using the DoCmd option. The code (see below) works to a point - it exports some of the queries before I get a run time error:
"31532: Microsoft Access was unable to export the data".
The worksheet tabs also do not pick up the query name but instead return what looks like a temporary ID (e.g. ~TMPCLP118431). Have tried different file locations and versions of excel but the same thing keeps happening.
Code: Sub ExportAllQueries() Dim qdf As QueryDef Dim db As Database
I have got an existing query which is exported to excel through DoCmd.Transferspreadsheet. In simple terms the query looks like below:
Group | Client
Group1 Client1 Group1 Client2 Group1 Client3
Group2 Client4 Group2 Client5 Group2 Client6
etc.
As some of the groups contain large number of clients, I am trying to find the code to split groups by pre-specified number of clients and export to excel, as follows:
I know Access can setup an Outlook Task to auto-export query to Excel, but it requires the Outlook to be always open on the user's computer.
Is there an easy way to setup a schedule that can automatically export a query to Excel and this schedule will then auto-email the exported Excel file to an email address every Monday at 5AM for example?
If this can only be done in VBA, any reference I may start with?
I am using Access 2000. I have created a command button on a form that when pressed, it exports a file to Excel using the TransferSpreadsheet command. It exports names, degree type, graduation date starting in cell A1. It works well.
What I wish to do is this: Can I have this data exported starting in cell A5 instead of A1? AND in the export cell A1 will have "College", A2 will have "School" and A3 will have "Dean".
In sheet 1, In column A all the Batch numbers are present. So I want to check if each of these is present in Access table named "tblmain". If its present then display its corresponding Policy number in Column B of attached workbook.
I receive a bunch of excel files with items to be added to a database. some of the items are to be added as new, some to be deleted and others to be modified.
I identify the action (add/delete/modify) by looking at a column in the excel file e.g. column A.
At this point I am fine with the add/delete because I can filter the data or bring all the files to a temporary table in an Access database via vba script and then running queries to do the rest.
My issue is that the spreadsheets have a lot of columns and for the modifications what they do is use the same file for instance, make changes on the cells (any cell) that need modification and then highlight, bold or underline only the items that need modification and ignore the rest of the file (a tedious process since I have to then open each file and manually modify the database).
exporting an Access query to Excel using VBA.When I run the code, the Excel workbook that is created defaults to the name of the query.I use naming conventions for my queries so the tab of the Excel spreadsheet is named "qryProviderAuditExport". I would like to name it "Provider Report". Is there a way to do this.It is one spreadsheet that is created when the code is run and there is only one tab to worry about. Here is my code so far:
Dim file_name As String file_name = CirrentProject.Path & "Submitter_Audit_Report.xls" DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputQuery, "qryProviderAuditExport", acFormatXLS, file_name, True
If possible, I would like to do this during the export without having the code open the Excel spreadsheet and doing it after the fact.
how i can calculate totals after i export some data from access to excel (using CopyFromRecordset). I'd like to put the total the row after the last row of data similar to how one use to AutoSum in excel.
i have a form and i want to export it to excel file the form will be updated someties and the data will be changed here is my code, but there is a problem with it
Code:
Private Sub Command0_Click() Dim xlApp As Object Dim xlBook As Object Dim rs As ADODB.Recordset Dim sql As String Dim i As Integer Dim Conn1 As ADODB.Connection Dim Cmd1 As ADODB.Command
I am exporting from access to excel using the code below, but I'd like to edit the code so that it exports to excel for each original value in column A. For example, if column A contains the values "Type A", "Type B" and "Type C" then I'd like to export/save three different excel files (one for "Type A", one for "Type B" and one for "Type C"). If "Type A" appears in column A seven times then I'd want to export all seven rows for columns A through E.
Code:
Private Sub ExportToExcel_Click() 'Declaration of variables for file path Dim CurrentFolder As String Dim FileName As String Dim CurrentCycle As String 'Initializing CurrentCycle = Format(Date, "yyyymm") FileName = SVCnumber1 & "Output.xls"
On Error GoTo ErrorHandler Dim exApp As Excel.Application Dim exDoc As Excel.Workbook Dim exSheet As Excel.Worksheet Dim Dateiname As String Dim SQL As String
[Code] ....
I'll get the following error:
error message 1004: can not give a sheet, the same name of the sheet
I am looking to export my listbox values to a single workbook BUT a new sheet is created per export. There are 6 listboxes in total and I already have the code to export a single listbox but if I try to use this code its going to overwrite the csv each time .
Code: Dim i As Integer Dim n As Integer Dim strLine As String Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") Set a = fs.CreateTextFile("D:DatabaseHomeExportCombinedHrs.csv", True)
Does anyone know how to export from an Access form to excel using a command button?
1-Here is what I desire: I have created a command button on a form. When it is pressed, it is supposed to export certain fields in Access to specific fields in excel. Four fields in Access is to be exported to Excel when I click a command button.These four cells in Excel are A1, A2, A3, A4. I managed to get this far.........
This is the code: Private Sub Command604_Click() On Error GoTo Err_Command604_Click Dim oApp As Object Set oApp = CreateObject("Excel.Application") oApp.Visible = True 'Only XL 97 supports UserControl Property On Error Resume Next oApp.UserControl = True Exit_Command604_Click: Exit Sub Err_Command604_Click: MsgBox Err.Description Resume Exit_Command604_Click
End Sub
2-When I click the command button, It launces Excel, but there is no sheet.
3-I have posted this message before and I am greatful for those who responded, but I need help! I suck at this, any help will be grealty appreciated.
I am able to use DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet to export data from Access to Excel, however, I want to be able transfer data into a specific sheet within an Excel template (e.g. Tasking.xls), that will then save under a different name (e.g. Tasking 20140429.xls). The other sheets within the Excel template contain pivots etc. so they will need updating during this process. The Excel template should just close down and remain in its original format.
This process will occur once a week so the dates will have to change accordingly.
Any definitive way of exporting a query to an Excel file and then saving it as a new file without saving over the original.
I've tried to remove any confidential info from the code below so it's not exactly the same.
Code: Dim XLApp As Excel.Application Dim XLSheet As Excel.Worksheet Dim tmpRS As DAO.Recordset Dim strFolder as String strFolder = ("C:Profiles"& [Name] & "")
[Code] ....
The error seems to be with the SQL statement although that may just be the first error that it got to. I read that you can't refer to a Query if it has a criteria and that you have to write the SQL directly into the code.
In Access i can create different contracts with different running time.
I have contracts with a running time of 4 years, 6years, 8 years, 10 years and 12 years.
I have for each contract a different Excel file.
The users can choose via an Inputbox, which contract he wants to Export in Excel. In the Inputbox he enters the SuWID.
Now i want that the the Excel file with the Special running time get opened.
4 years ----> ("C:UsersGRIMBENDesktop4years.xlsm") 6 years ----> ("C:UsersGRIMBENDesktop6years.xlsm")
and so on.
Code: Dim xlApp As Object 'Excel.Application Dim xlBook As Object 'Excel.Workbook Dim xlSheet As Object 'Excel.Worksheet Dim rst As DAO.Recordset, SuWID As Long, tmpStr As String
I am using Access 97 & Excel 97 for this problem. I have a Access query which takes the contents of three tables and exports them to Excel. However, the query has now reach 69000+ records and increases by about 1000+ records ever month. So what I need to do is create as many WORKSHEETS within a single Excel WORKBOOK as necessary to accomodate all of my Access data. I have written a piece of code which will create seperate WORKBOOKS for each 65000+ of records but then what I want to do is code the almagamation of these WORKBOOKS into 1.
In short, after the first WORKBOOK is created I use code to make that the active WORKBOOK and then I want to import into that the other WORKSHEETS in the other WORKBOOKS.
I am using the folowing DIM's:
Dim X As New Excel.Application Dim WkBook As Excel.WorkBook Dim WkSheet As Integer Dim ExcelSheet As Excel.Worksheet
ExcelSheet therefore is the current WORKSHEET within the Excel spreadsheet I want to import into.
Any advice on the command to perform a transfer of WORKSHEET data between Excel WORKBOOKS?
