Modules & VBA :: Excel File When Formatted In Access Shows Wrong Number
Nov 7, 2013
I am opening an excel file from access and changing the formatting from "dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm" to number with 15 decimal places.Then I am linking the file to the database and subsequently doing a lookup on the date time on the access form against this table.The excel file when formatted from vba in access shows the wrong number
datetime = 03/05/2013 11:26
database number = 41397.4763888889
Excel file number = 41398.4763888889 (which would equal 04/05/13 11:26)
now if I do it manually then I get 41397.4763888889 or if the macro is in excel I still get 41397.4763888889.Also I have tested the code with manually editing the excel file and this works fine.
Code:
Private Sub Command288_Click()
Dim s As String
Dim t As Integer
Dim ws As Worksheet
s = LaunchCD(Me)
MsgBox (s)
[code]....
also this brings up a form and then I select the field required for the lookup and with the button is pressed the rest of the code runs as follows.
Code:
Private Sub LoadData_Click()
Dim w As String
w = Forms![frmList1]![Combo0]
w = "[" & w & "]"
Dim dtA As String
The access file has a lot of rows which do not show on the excel file. The added files in access either have a space before their names, an * before their names, or no name at all. I would attach the new access file but it does not show up on my windows 7 list of files on my computer. It only shows up as a new file on my access program.
If the data in the spreadsheet is not in a standard row/column datasheet format how can I import it to Access, does anyone know, please help if you do. I have a formatted excel form and i need to import it to access!!!!!!
I am using following code to copy low value from Access table to excel file, but only to find that it changed in excel file. How should I do to not change that?
ThisWorkbook.Sheets("EV Data").Cells(row + 2, col + 2) = _ rs.Fields(col).Value
halloo everybody Here is my code to check an excel sheet wether it is open or not. It is working good in the following situations.
1.if the excel file is not yet opened. then it is opening and bringing a value from some cell of the sheet1. 2.If the file is already opened and not yet closed. it is not opening again it is understanding that the file is already openrd and bringing the cell value. 3.It is working when it is closed by the user and again clicked the button to open. It is opening and bringing the value. 4.NOW the problem starts. IT IS NOT WORKING , If I click the button again to open. It is opening another copy of the same file. I did't understand why is it working perfectly? before I close the file and not working if I close the File.
please kindly check my code and respond to me . here is my code but it is not working when the file is already opened.
Private sub Cmd_Click()
Dim XL As New Excel.Application Dim wbk As New Excel.Workbook Dim ws As New Excel.Worksheet
WorkBookName = "Book2.xls" If Not WorkbookOpen(WorkBookName) Then chk = 1 Set wbk = XL.Workbooks.Open("C:Dokumente und EinstellungenKiran KarnatiDesktopEXCELBook2.xls") Else Set wbk = Workbooks(WorkBookName) End If
Set ws = wbk.Worksheets("Sheet1") If chk = 0 Then With ws Label48.Caption = .Cells(1, 2).Value .Cells(1, 3).Select End With Else With ws Text49.Value = .Cells(1, 2).Value End With End If XL.Visible = True
Set SA = Nothing Set XL = Nothing Set wbk = Nothing End Sub _________________________________________________

I have a form with a search box, Its UNBOUND called ID . Everytime I search for an ID number it shows no results, However I know there are entries in the table. This is the code I am using :
Code: Private Sub ID_AfterUpdate() If (ID & vbNullString) = vbNullString Then Exit Sub Dim rs As DAO.Recordset Set rs = Me.RecordsetClone rs.FindFirst "[Id] LIKE ' " & ID & " ' "
[Code] ....
I am assuming I need to add something to search for auto numbers but i don't know what!
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.
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 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.
I've vba in Report onformat the vba code does some data copying to External Excel file (premade by vba).Now on first run, i got success.But on opening the excel file, it showed blank space + Error"File already opened"
No White Spreadsheet is shown with data to see into file, i created new excel file in windows, and inserted the vba created/exported file as an Obj.Now Obj is showing correct and full data with spreadsheet as normal view.
I have an access program that is stored on a SharePoint site. I want to be able to export report to the computer even if I just open the access program as read only. Here's my code:
Code:
Private Sub btnExport_Click() On Error GoTo btnExport_Click_Err Dim db As DAO.Database Dim strSQL As String Dim qdfTemp As DAO.QueryDef Dim qryFilter As DAO.QueryDef
I have a VBA code to import mail from Lotus Notes into Access. The database user is able to read his email inside Access, similar to any email program.
Unfortunately, when I use the GetItemValue (lotusscript) method to read the body of the email message, Notes will render the Rich Text information as Plain Text, and I end up with no formatting information (bold letters, underline, text color, etc.)
How to import messages from Notes to Access and keep the text formatting? I am storing the data in a Rich Text Memo field in a table. I have found code to write HTML (MIME) messages, but not to import them into Access.
I am trying to check for when a user trys to enter a duplicate number.
The control that I am checking is in a subform on the main form:
Main: frmCandidateInfo Sub: frmTestInfo
Control on the subform is: RankOrder
I am trying to check the control entry against the table entry:
Table: tblTestEvents Field: RankOrder
Here is what I have:
Code: Private Sub RankOrder_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer) Dim lngRankDup As Long lngRankDup = Nz(DLookup("[RankOrder]", "tblTestEvents", "[RankOrder]=" & Forms!frmCandidateInfo!sfTestInfo!Form!RankOrder, 0)) If lngRankDup <> 0 Then MsgBox TestEventID & " already exists in the database" End If End Sub
I know that the error is due to the argument not being correct, but I am not sure how to fix it.
I need some simple code that will copy an Excel file or a table in Access to a specific location on an FTP server. I would think this would be a very simple task, but I have yet to find any sample code that is *simple*. I have seen lots of code that requires downloading this dll or that mda, but the examples don't work. There must be something built into MS Access 2010 that will allow a file to be uploaded to an FTP site.
All the variables are known:
The FTP location (it never changes) The FTP Username and Password (they never change) The destination folder on the FTP site (it never changes) The File type (it never changes) The File name (available from the form in Access from which this will be executed)
I can either produce an output file, then copy it to the FTP site, or I can export the table directly to the FTP site with the file name for that day.
This seems to be a very simple task with no simple solution. Currently I am using an FTP app to get the file to the FTP site, but I would like to automate this. The process that creates the output file is already automated, so I would just like to add this to the existing code as its own module.
just made all that above up and none of it is a real function/command in VBA, but is just the kind of thing I'm looking for.
I would think that since I can download and XML file from an FTP site that it should be child's play to upload a simple file to an FTP site, but I can't figure it out.
I have a form which i use for a user to select an excel file they want to import and then click a cmd button to import the file into a table which works fine, however i want to append a date into a date field from an unbound txtbx before the file is imported so it will look something like;
I have a procedure in Access that exports three reports to Excel, combines them in a single workbook, and then applies Excel formatting to some of the sheets. This procedure works the first time, but if I run it again it fails. In particular, I notice that things like "ActiveCell" and "Selection" will continue to refer to the previous workbook (dim xlWkb), even though I've activated the current worksheet/workbook.
Code: Dim xlApp As Excel.Application Dim xlWkb As Excel.Workbook Dim xlBwkb As Excel.Workbook
[code]....
'BillingTemp, etc. are defined earlier in the procedure. I essentially am exporting Access reports to temporary Excel files, and then opening the files and putting them in a single workbook.
Set xlBwkb = xlApp.Workbooks.Open(BillingTemp) xlBwkb.Sheets(1).Copy After:=xlWkb.Sheets(1) xlBwkb.Close False Set xlBwkb = xlApp.Workbooks.Open(PrismTemp) xlBwkb.Sheets(1).Copy After:=xlWkb.Sheets(2) xlBwkb.Close False
[code]....
'After combining the exported reports into one Excel workbook, I apply some formatting to some of the sheets.
Dim i As Integer Dim rng As Range Dim b As Range Dim lastRowB As Integer Dim Indication As String Dim ws As Worksheet
See attached the Workbook. I need to check the policy Numbers in Column A of all the sheets in the attached workbook if its present in Access Table. If yes then write the corresponding ScanDate and BatchNo from Access table to columns I and J of all the sheets. I need to write VBA code to perform it.
In the attached workook, only Sheet1 contains the data but in actual there will be data in 5 sheets in the workbook.
I'm trying to create an auto generating ID number field that contains a date followed by a sequential number for that date. In example...
YearMonthDay###
070719001 070719002 070719003 tomorrows numbering would be 070720001 070720002 and so on.
Each new day would start a new sequence of 001, 002, 003, etc. I have searched these forums and haven't really found any answers. Could someone direct me in the correct direction. Also I need this number to be saved in the table and not just displayed or printed.
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.
The following code browse from one form to another and shows the record details I select in the first form which is what I need, however, the problem is it only shows that record and will not allow me go to next or previous records when pressing NEXT or PREVIOUS by saying this is the First Record or this is the Last Record.
Anyway to modify it to allow me navigate to other records.
Dim txtJobNumber As Integer Private Sub Job_Number_DblClick(Cancel As Integer) 'Store Job_Number in txtJobNumber variable and display message to show value. txtJobNumber = [Job_Number]
It's my understanding of general database practice that an Autonumber field should be used as a primary key in normalisation tables. I realise my understanding could be wrong, and I'm quite happy to change that practice if need be.
I have my normalisation tables. For the most part these consist of an Autonumber field ([UID]) as the primary key, then an indexed, no duplicates text field with the normalisation data. For this case, we'll say it's a list of departments ([DepartmentID]).
I have a form for entering users. Again, the PK is an autonumber field. I used a wizard to create a combo box. I selected the fact that I want to store the value in [DepartmentID], NOT [UID].
This works fine, I can add my users and the combo boxes work, although I had to change the bound column to 2, as 1 is selected by default although it is [UID].
I then created a subform based on a query of all users. This subform is not bound to the main form in any way, it simply shows the result of the query.
When entering users, upon saving a record, the form is updated and the new user shown in the subform. Great, apart from "txtDepartment" in the subform showing [UID], and not [DepartmentID] as stipulated.
I have a horrible feeling this is to do with [UID] being my PK, but I'd like someone to tell me I'm wrong. I can quite happily remove the autonumber field [UID] and make the unique [DepartmentID] field the PK, but this just doesn't seem "correct" to me.
Should I do this? Should I have an autonumber field as the PK?
I realise this is more a design theory question than a form problem as such, but anything that clarifies my understanding of correct design practice will help.
EDIT:- I'd also like to say that I did it this way to get away from using the "LOOKUP" field type at table design time, specifically to avoid this very problem of numbers showing up when I want the text there!
I'm currently working with Access 2007 building a way to create PODs to clients. I have most everything laid out, one problem I can't seem to get around is naming the file the SOW #. Below is the code:
Function Run_all_PODs_01() Dim myPath As String Dim name As Object
DoCmd.OpenQuery "Q5 SOW bill requested data points all", acViewNormal, acEdit DoCmd.OpenQuery "Q5 SOW bill requested All 01", acViewNormal, acEdit
[Code] ...
I can't seem to get the name to equal the SOW number.
The table that I'm trying to reference is "SOW bill requested data points" it is a basic table one row with a column header as SOW #. I'm not sure how to tell it name the file that data point in the column.
