I'me running on Win7, Office 2010, Acc2003 format (.mdb), writing data to Excel 2010 (.xlsx)I have code to create an Excel file, send record set data to it, and then add some formulas and formatting. I was trying to tune up the formulas, when I got a pull back:Access VBA code suddenly stops running, and the file gets displayed in Excel
Code:
'ApXl is Application.Excel
'xlWSh is the Excel WorkSheet
'rst is my DAO.Recorset
just wondering why randomly certain modules in the form code stop working..
when you accidentally press return.. or do something in the wrong order.. or apply one rule to one control.. and then another control rule stops working..
so you have to delete the code.. right click on the control's event.. and re-insert the code into the event section.. and then it works..
Question: Is it possible, using VBA, to determine the actual Excel file type without opening the file?
I receive data files from other departments. Seems like every time someone changes their download structure, I end up with file types that do not match the download extension (example: xlm file with a xls extension). The files can't even be opened because of this. I think I can fix it if I could figure out how to determine what the file type really is.
I have recently upgraded to Access 2013 and this has updated all my object library references to 15.0. The problem is that my colleages are still using Access 2010 and when they try to use the database they are receiving a missing reference error.
I have removed the Excel reference but this gives me the 'object type not recognized' error when running the code.I have tried to download the 14.0 reference libraries in order to add them back in but for some reason the installer doesn't work.
I would like to have a button in a form that the end user clicks and they then enter the name of the tif file they are looking for and on pressing enter the file is searched for and if found it is automatically opened up for them to see, if it is not found then a message "File Not Found" is displayed.
I Believe that I will need something like this:
Code:
Dim FS As FileSystemObject Dim filenum As Integer Dim tmp As String Dim Folder As Folder Dim subFolder As Folder Dim File As File
[Code] .....
It's when I get to this point that I've got stuck, I don't know how to structure the code required to do the search and on finding the tif file open it.
An example tif file I might search for is: 0H214_2CJ0001905.tif.
I have this segment of code that adds data to fields FName and FPath in the table Files. It works fine but the syntax is a nightmare with all the double quotes and symbols.
I have another field in the table Files called CompletedBy that shows who updated the table (they type their name into a textbox Text1 before clicking a command button to run the code). I would like to add this data to the table during the execution of strSQL. All the records added to the table Files will have that value in the CompletedBy field (say, Bob Jones).I tried the below changes but the code doesnt work.
I have a report exporting to excel using late binding techniques. When exported into excel i have numbers for 1,2,3,4 tblPreSiteSurveys. PreSiteSurvey Stop TheClockReason entitie and I am trying to either change the numbers here casting from int to string

I have a folder in which there are PDF files stored. Now in the Form, there is a combobox and I want the code so that when a Form is loaded then add all those PDF file names(only first 9 letters of that) in the combobox.
e.g if the PDF file name is ABCDE1990-YYY then add ABCDE1990 in the combobox. So if there 10 PDF files in the folder then add 10 names in the combobox.
I was trying to access this particular MS-ACCESS file which serves as a DB for a software. But the file opens and closes in a split of a second and was impossible to view its structure. :mad: I beleive it's made to respond so by the programmers in order to hide the content. Can anyone please help me open this file? PLEASE...
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 trying to create some code for a button in a report that will follow a hyperlink to a specific file. The problem I'm having is that the files that are at the end of the hyperlink can have various extensions (*.doc, *.docx, *.pdf, etc.) I'd like to be able to put a wildcard in the code to allow the opening of the file regardless of the extension.
Code so far:
Private Sub Command6_Click() Application.FollowHyperlink ("C:UsersjbeggDocumentsAccessTestFolder" & [FileName] & ".*") End Sub
What I want to do instead is open an existing .XLSM wokrbook delete or update the 7 sheets it creates and replace them with the new query results from access.
I love this code below because it works really well but now I have a new requirement. I have a workbook that has a "dashboard" sheet that looks at the sheets from acccess and summerizes the data. So, I'd like Access to open that "template" excel workbook and delete the old sheets and put in the new ones..The required sheets to keep are called "Metrics", "Validation" and "Mara"
What I was trying to do for the past few hours was another work around which was to have Access run this code, then excel run some code to import the "dashboard" formulas but I can't get it to copy to another workbook because it links to the OLD workbook..Here is the working code that needs modding:
Code:
Option Compare Database Public Function ExportAdvanced() Dim strWorksheet As String Dim strWorkSheetPath As String Dim appExcel As Excel.Application Dim sht As Excel.Worksheet Dim wkb As Excel.Workbook Dim Rng As Excel.Range Dim strTable As String Dim strRange As String Dim strSaveName As String Dim strPrompt As String Dim strTitle As String Dim strDefault As String
I am trying to program a button on my ms access form to open up an excel file.. So far the simplest code ive found online was from URL....
<code>
Private Sub Command57_Click() Dim xlTmp As Excel.Application Set xlTmp = New Excel.Application xlTmp.Workbooks.Open "C:Excel1.xls" xlTmp.Visible = True
[code]...
However the code doesn't work, any way to open a file from within access?
All I need to do is copy an excel file from a location (while coping the file, the location of the source file remains same all the time)and paste that excel file where ever I want (Browser Option) from an Access VBA.
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.
I have a macro in access that will create a folder and create a word doc in the folder with the name of the folder. I would like to add to the same folder an excel file. The excel file is in a folder and needs to be copied every time in a new folder when created. where to add the excel file from the below folder:
C:Excel CopyCombine_PDF.xls
this is the macro:
Code:
Private Sub Command22_Click() 'this will register the letter and create folder, word doc and open all Me.[DateRegistered] = Date Me.[PersonRegister] = Environ("Username") Me.Refresh
Some vba code which is able to get the last updated or last modified value of an excel file stored in a folder in a shared drive and update a field on a form in ms access.
I'm spinning my wheels on this. Trying to copy a recordset into an existing excel file.
Private Sub cmdExport_Click()
Dim conn As ADODB.Connection Dim conn2 As ADODB.Connection Dim rst As New ADODB.Recordset Dim strSQL As String Dim strConnection2 As String Dim wks As Excel.Worksheet
I am writing code to Refresh table links. I only want to refresh the Access table links and ignore the Excel Table links. Is there a way to determine in VBA if the table link is pointing to an Excel file?
I have the following code. In the Else part of the code, after the wb.Activate line, what code can I place here that will assign wb.Name to the objExcelApp object ao that when the line .Visible = False kicks in, it will make the already opened MS Excel file invisible.
Code: Dim strExcelFile As String Dim wb As Workbook Set objExcelApp = GetObject(, "Excel.Application") If objExcelApp Is Nothing Then Set objExcelApp = CreateObject("Excel.Application") objExcelApp.Workbooks.Open FileName:=strExcelFile
I have the following code, which works the way I want it to when I click the button the first time. However, if I close out the excel and click the button again, it errors at the line "ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Ref").UnProtect", with the message "Run-time error '91', Object variable or With block variable not set". I can not figure this out, why in the world does it work the first time, but not the second???
Private Sub cmdReport_Click() Dim path As String Dim XL As Object Dim oBook As Excel.Workbook Dim pic As Excel.Shape Set XL = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
i want to make an excel file from a query and then export it to mail. i want to make an excel and then send it as an attachhment. also i want to insert the mail address to manually because each time it is sent to a different person.
I want to delete an excel file from within access vba. Problem is that if the file is open, it obviously cannot be deleted. so I need to check to see if that specific excel workbook is open and if it is, I want to close it before I can delete it.
All of the answers here involve creating an excel object and opening it before closing it. If I do that all that happens is a second instance of the workbook opens then closes leaving the originally open workbook still open.
Sub xx() Dim XLapp As New Excel.Application Dim ObjXL As Excel.Workbook Set ObjXL = XLapp.Workbooks.Open("C:dropboxexcelimport.xlsx ") ObjXL.Application.Visible = True
[Code] .....
The above code demonstrates my problem, if the import.xlsx file is already open then the code just opens another instance of this workbook and then closes it again leaving the original workbook open and as such cannot be deleted.
