Modules & VBA :: Search For A Record In Excel
Jun 5, 2014
I have recently built a database to keep track of all the inventory counts for our technicians. This process was originally in Excel and they wanted to move it to Access in order to automate it. They have also decided that they still want to maintain the original Excel schedule by adding dates each time a step is completed. I currently have code that will go to an existing spreadsheet and add data from the database URL... I was wondering if there is a way to modify this code so that it will look for a specific name in the spreadsheet, go to the end of that row and enter today's date.If so, what modifications would need to be made to the code to get it to work?

I have a main form "Furniture_CatCodeAssets" which shows detail specifics about certain furniture item codes (width, height, colour etc.). I have a subform "Furniture_AssetsSubform" which shows all of the asset numbers associated with that furniture item code.I have a combo box that allows you to filter by furniture category, that then updates a list box that shows only the item codes associated with that category. When an item code is selected in the list box the main form and the subform update to show what was selected. (I mention this only in case it is causing an interruption - they work perfectly.)
What I am trying to do now is add a text box and button that will allow you to search in the subform to find a specific asset number and go to that item code on the main form.
I have the following code on the command button:
Set rst = Forms!furniture_CatCodeAsset.Furniture_AssetsSubfo rm.Form.RecordsetClone
rst.FindFirst "[Asset Number]=" & Me.textSearch
If Not rst.NoMatch Then
Forms!furniture_CatCodeAsset!Furniture_AssetsSubfo rm.Form.Bookmark = rst.Bookmark
Else
MsgBox "No match found, please check your asset number and try again."
End If
Me.textSearch = Null
rst.Close
Set rst = Nothing
Which returns the message box that nothing was found even though I know I that asset number exists.

Input box Search problem. I have been using the following to find a record in my frmMain using an Input Box:
Private Sub cmdClientIdSearch_Click()
'Searches for Client by ID number
Dim rs As Object
Dim strCriteria As String
strCriteria = InputBox("Please enter Client ID" & vbCr & "Do not type leading zeros")
[Code] ....
It works great if I run it from a command button from frmMain. But, if frmMain is open and I run it from a command button on my switchboard, I get the following error message:
Run Time error 7951. You entered an expression that has an invalid reference to the Recordset Clone Property. I tried inserting a command to open frmMain in the first line, even before the two Dim statements, but I get the same result.

Its been a few years since I used Access, and despite searches I cant find what I'm looking for. I have a VERY simple form, with only one record on it - "address". I have some print buttons which will print that address to different size labels, and some navigation items, but only one actual record - which is "address" (in the table, this address is a MEMO)
I would like to have a command button that when clicked copies the current record, and opens an existing Excel Spreadsheet and pastes that address into (for example) cell C8
Can it be done easily? Is there a DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet kind of secnario that works with current record only?

creating a VBA that will allow me to search for a record in Table A, and once the record is found, allow me the option to add that record to Table B. Is this possible to do if Table A and Table B are not formatted the same (i.e. one has more fields than the other)? In summary, creating a VBA that will allow me to search in one table and once the correct record is found, allow me the ability to add it to another table.

I currently have a database with a few search forms. I recently attempted to add a box on one of my search forms to search 3 cells of a record for a key word. What happens is when I go to search, say for P0442, it does not bring up all of the records that contain that keyword in the 3 cells I have outlined. If I step down the code in the OR boxes of the query, it seems to work better but then for some reason my other search criteria , (Tracking number etc) does not work. I will upload the database for reference. I am currently working on the Search(View Only) and that is where you will find the query to work on.

I have a form that has a subform on it. The main form shows a category of furniture and has custom navigation buttons and a search text box for asset numbers and command button that runs the search. The subform shows the asset numbers associated with that furniture category, sometimes there is only one asset number, in other cases there could be 60. There is a scroll bar to scroll through the asset numbers when there are too many to see in the initial window.
The buttons all work as they should except when I search for an asset number that is part of a category that has too many asset numbers to show in the main window. When this happens the "previous" and "next" navigation buttons do not take you to the previous or next record. All of the other buttons on the form work though - you can go to the first, or the last record, and you can search for a new asset.This is the code for the search:
Code:
Private Sub cmdAssetSearch_Click()
Dim rs As Object
If IsNull(Me.TextAsset) Or Me.TextAsset = "" Then
MsgBox "Please type in an asset number to search for.", vbOKOnly
Me.TextAsset.SetFocus
[code]....
I've also attached a picture of what I mean when I say there are more asset numbers than what the window shows.

I searched the archive and didn't find quite what I was looking for, so..
I have an Excel 2003 spreadsheet work-in-progress being used as a template (developed by others) to prepare project cost estimates in a complex regulatory environment. We are 'modelling on the fly' for a number of projects until we are comfortable with the estimate model, after which time I intend to incorporate our 'stable' estimate methodology into Access. Meanwhile, I am 'stuck' with the Excel spreadsheet.
I have a project tracking database (Access 2003), and I want to be able to track my estimates. I do NOT want to embed my spreadsheets into the db, just a filelink. There can be more than 1 estimate per project.
Ideally, the user should be able to define a project in the Access db (or select one already defined) and click a 'make estimate' button, which would generate a new Excel file in a predefined directory (based on the present version of the .xlt file), give it an appropriate filename (based on the Access ProjectID and estimate sequence number for that project if there were others already), open up that workbook in Excel, and then autopopulate some cells based on information showing on the original form in Access!
A separate button for 'Open existing estimate' will eventually be required, but I think I could do that if I can get someone to walk me through the steps required above.
I am somewhat familiar with vba in Access, but am an absolute rookie when it comes to excel.
Edit: I left out that I would also add an appropriate record to a table like tblEstimate which would contain the link(s) to the estimate(s). This table will obviously contain a FK to tblProject

I just wanted to export the search results into excel files. I have googled about it and I found the VBA code for exporting, which didn't worked out for me.
I used Macros by referencing one of the tutorial and it looks fine. Does the usage of macros for exporting the data into excel is also the correct procedure?
I just wanted to know that am I on the right track?

Hello,
I have recently purchased a spreadsheet from the county tax assessors office that I will use to search for comparable property values for properties I am looking to purchase. This spreadsheet has over 100k records in it. I have created a table for this in access. Now I am wanting to create a way to search for properties in a specific "Neighborhood #" that have been sold in the past 24 months. I am not versed in Access, so I will need a step by step approach.
Each record in my table contains a "Neighborhood #", "SALE_MM", "SALE_YY", and "SALE_PRICE". I would like for my search results to contain all of the fields for each record it finds.
Can anyone tell me how to do this?
Thanks,
Rob Caldwell

very very new to access so if what im saying is way off or wrong, keep that in mind.
i'm actually learning this as i go, tiral and error.
ok for my issue. i'm trying to create a search where i could look up someones history of drills, and tests
by their ssn. i have a form made where the user will input personl info, date drills were completed, tests
were passed,etc. i'm wondering if it's at all possible to search for an individuals "records" if they need to
update a test they passed that they previously failed. so i guess search for a record for editing. i dont
know too much about VB or if this sort of thing even requires the use of code. if more information is
required, i will post what is needed like i said, i'm a n00bie at this. any and all help would be greatly
appreciated. thanx.

Hi All
I am very new to Access and currently experimenting with setting up basic database.
I need to search for a record with a unique indexed number (no Dups) via a command button on my main form.
Ideally the search will then take me to the corresponding row displayed in a sub-form.
I would assume that i acheive this via a query and the paramaters options but I am unsure about the how to and displaying the results in a new form?
Any help????

I have a form / subform. The form has a memo field. I have 10,000 plus records in the Form table. Each time I make a correction in two or more of the fields, I get the error: The Search Key was not found in any record error.
For instance, I can even manually tie a many to many relationship in a join table without an error by adding a new record at the table level but I can't do this in the form. In neither place can I change the memo field more than once without this error. What resets it so I can make one more change is to Compact & Repair Database. A hassle and then some. :(

Hi,
I just want to create a search on my form where i input a date, and then press a command button that will jump to the first occurence of that date in the table. I don't want a filter, since that just excludes all the other data without that date. I tried playing around with FindRecord and GoToRecord, but to no avail, due to my limited knowledge. =P Thanks in advance.

I have a search form containing an unbound text and three search button.
You can search by customer Number, Last Name, or Order Number by entering customer#, last name, or order# and clicking on the appropriate button. The problem I'm having is to get the value (either customer Number, Last Name, or Order Number) from the unbound text called txtSearch to find a matching value then open the second form called frm_CustomerInformation containing those value.

Anyone know why I might be getting this error?
Microsoft JET Database Engine error '80040e21'
The search key was not found in any record.
/***.asp, line 1113
This happens after a) I update an access Memo field, and b) query the record for re-display.
The only way I've found to resolve the problem is to compact and repair the db, but does anyone know what might be corrupting the data in the first place? The submitted text included html tags.

Hi all,
May I know what is the easiest way to search for records using 2 fields wich are not primary keys? and then return a boolean value whether it is found or not...
These 2 fields are of integer type.
Recordset.Find can only find record with one field and not two.
Is there any codes available for this?

Hi,
I am trying to build a form that allows the user to INPUT stock as it arrives. This is simple with a product form that shows all the products in the table. I just go to the quantity field and change it.
But, I want to create a 'search' function in the field. I want to allow the user to type in the Product number. Then the Product name, Product Price and Quantity is AUTOMATICALLY displayed.
The user can then change this value (items in stock).
Thats pretty much the jisst of what I wanna do.
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance.

Hi All,
Another totally newbie question here but I'm still trying to figure a few things out. Leave it to me to dive head-first into something without first doing research.
In my database I have a main form where I enter records for customers. Now, I also have a second form that is used to search for records. In this second form I want to be able to first filter the record search with a drop down menu that searches by items such as address, customer name, or city, etc. That way if the person doing the search doesn't know the name of the person they can search by address or vica versa. Once the user selects the search type they enter the name, or address, or whatever they're basing their search on and then click on a "Search" button. I have this button working so that it opens a report with a table which shows all the records pertaining to that search.
My first question is how can I get this to work properly because right now I keep getting the results of past searches, in fact I think it gives me all the records rather than the ones I want.
Once I figure this out, with your help, I'll have another question for you. hehe
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

I have a continuous form based on a query. In the form footer I have placed a text box and a command button. One of the text boxes on the continuous form is bound to the VIN field in the query. I would like the user to be able to place the last 8 digits of a particular VIN in the text box in the footer and click the command button to bring that particular record to the top.....
