Modules & VBA :: Import Multiple Excel Files With Different Number Of Sheets Into Table

Jul 12, 2015

some code I've come up to in order to import multiple excel files each of them with a different number of worksheets into an access table. The procedure is called from an Access database. The problem I have with the code is that when it encounters a workbook with only one worksheets (e.g. Sheet 1) it gives the error that "Sheet 2$" is not a valid name. When geting to a workbook with 2 sheets it says that "Sheet 3$" is not a valid name and so on and so forth. Is there a way to "check" the number of sheets in the workbooks and when it has only one sheet to transfer it and go to the next file?

Below is the code:

Code:
Sub ImportExcelFiles()
Dim strFile As String 'Filename's
Dim strFileList() As String ' File Array
Dim intFile As Integer 'Number of files
Dim filename As String
Dim path As String
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
path = "D:Tranzactii"

[Code]...

Can I Batch Import Multiple Excel Files?

Jun 22, 2007

I have 100 or so 2-sheet excel workbooks. I need to import them all into an access table for analysis. They are all exactly the same format/layout etc but obviously have different data in them (they are customer satisfaction surveys). I only want to export 1 out of the 2 sheets on each workbook (the other is a front end, the data sits behind in sheet 2).

So, at the moment I have to go to 'get external data' > 'import' > select excel and then double click each file individually and then go through the import wizard. Now, I can get them all into one table but it's clearly time consuming.

Is there anyway of doing a batch import of multiple excel files to cut out the manual work described above? Or can anyone suggest a lateral get around?

Any help much appreciated. I should say that I am running excel 2003 and access XP (2002)

Matt

Queries :: Import Multiple Excel Files

Jul 17, 2014

I have been trying to write a macro that will do the following:

- Look to a specific folder in my home drive (nb this may change)
- select all of the excel files that are in that folder
- select various cells in each of those spreadsheets - each spreadsheet is formatted the same with the same structure. The cells are random, e.g. D6, I22, H4, K4, D17, so I cannot select a whole range
- copy these cells and paste them into one row of a database

Modules & VBA :: Import Multiple Fix Width Text Files - Eliminate Multiple Headers And Footers

Aug 1, 2013

I am trying to build a newer database 2010, based on an older one,2000, that has been locked tight and I cannot see the modules to kinda get a reference of where to start. I am trying to find a VBA code that will allow me to import a several text files to one table. The text files are all in the same format but I cannot remove the page headers and footers to get the table to look right. I have attached an example of the text file i am trying to import but it is a stripped down version for information protection.

Also, it appears in the old Database Table once imported as:

J.Smith 1234 01 ABCD ABCD HGJV 2345 ABCDE ABC6 Qual Date Date
J.Smith 1234 01 ABCD ABCD HGJV 2345 ABCDE ABC6 Qual Date Date
J.Smith 1234 01 ABCD ABCD HGJV 2345 ABCDE ABC6 Qual Date Date
J.Adam 1234 01 ABCD ABCD HGJV 2345 ABCDE ABC6 Qual Date Date
J.Adam 1234 01 ABCD ABCD HGJV 2345 ABCDE ABC6 Qual Date Date
J.Adam 1234 01 ABCD ABCD HGJV 2345 ABCDE ABC6 Qual Date Date

If I could import the text files and end up with a table like this, it would be all i need as i could run all the queries i need from this.

Modules & VBA :: Convert To Excel Files And Import Into Access Database

Aug 7, 2015

I have files that have extension of TSV which are text files but viewable in exel. I figured out a way for the user to click on a button in Access which does the following

1. Run Macro in Excel: The macro prompts the user to select the TSV file. After selection, macro opens the employee.tsv file in the excel (with excel being invisible) and saves it as employee.xls

Code:
Sub SaveTSVtoXLS()
Dim myPath As String
Dim myString As Variant
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
With Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogOpen)

[Code] .....

2. Imports the Excel file (employee.xls) into two tables: tblEmployee and tblDepartment using the following codes.

Code:
DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acImport, acSpreadsheetTypeExcel12Xml, "qryDepartment", selectFile, True - 1, "A1:C2"
DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acImport, acSpreadsheetTypeExcel12Xml, "qryEmployee", selectFile, True - 1, "A1:AE2"

Everything is working flawless except that the user has to select the file three times:

1 time for the tsv
2 times for the xls file

Is there a way that the user can select the file only once (tsv file) or at least only twice one of the tsv file and the other for the xls file?

Modules & VBA :: How To Import Data From Text Files Into Access

Nov 6, 2014

I have a text file that details every single incident that happened in the system. This means that it is extremely messy and non-comprehensible to a normal person due to the use of codewords and all.

Is it possible to scan through the document and insert the data into access, such that the different keywords are put as seperate events?

Ps, the number of characters between each event and data may not always be the same, so seperating them by that is not the way to do it. However, when I open the file in notepad++, I can confirm that each event is 6 lines.

E.g. Line 1 = Event timestamp, Line 2 = Event Name, Line 3 = Acknowledged or not, Line 4 = Acknowledged by who, Line 5 = Event Details, Line 6 = Application Owner.

Basically, the 6 lines are the 6 columns that I would need in my table. So, is it possible to separate out and read every 6 lines of data in the text file?

Import Excel Data From Multiple Sheets Into Multiple Tables In Access

Aug 25, 2012

I would like to know which way is the best way to import excel data from multiple sheets in to multiple tables in access.

For example data from Sheet1 -> Table1, Sheet2->Table2, Sheet3->Table3 etc...

I have tried using this:
Cmd.TransferSpreadsheet acImport, acSpreadsheetTypeExcel5, "Table1", "C:Importedfile.xlsx", True, "Sheet1!"

Ironically, data from Sheet2 and Sheet3 seem to be properly imported in to table2 and table3, but some of the data from Sheet1 seems to be missing in Table1 after import.

Any other ways to import the data?

Modules & VBA :: Import Multiple Excel Sheets To One New Table

Nov 19, 2014

I have an Excel workbook with multiple sheets, all the sheets have the same headers and are formatted the same.

Problem 1 is I need some sort of loop so that all sheets will be imported, the names will vary so I can't use specific names to import.

Problem 2 is that I need to create a new TempTable based on the format of these sheets and have them all import to that one table.

I need to do some cleaning up and updating of the data before I run append queries to have it moved to a couple of permanent tables.

I know I've written the VBA to have a new table created on import and later deleted after all my queries run.

Modules & VBA :: Import Csv Files And Rename Them After Import Into (imported) And (failed)

Jul 17, 2015

I have the following piece of code for importing the .csv files from a selected folder and then renaming them into 'imported & filename' if succesful and 'failed & filename' if import failes for whatever reason (bad formating, etc.).

The problem is that the first time it encounters a 'bad' file after another, instead of going again to the Error handler, the command

Code:
DoCmd.TransferText acImportDelim, , "Activitate", filename, True

gives me the default MS Access error, namely 2391. I would like it to go the the Error_handler again ang follow the course of actions and rename the files into 'failed' and 'imported'.

Here's the code:

Sub ImportActivitate()
Dim strFile As String 'Filename's
Dim strFileList() As String ' File Array
Dim intFile As Integer 'Number of files
Dim filename As String, sFullName As String, sFilename As String
DoCmd.SetWarnings False

[code]....

Also, how can I make the routine stop cycling through the files after I renamed them all?

Modules & VBA :: Command Button On A Form - Import Data From Excel

Mar 27, 2014

I'm trying to design a command button on a Form so the user can import the contents of an Excel spreadsheet to an existing Table in Access with the click of a button. But, i'd like the imported data to overwrite the existing data in the Table and not append to it. I've considered using linked tables but apparently you can't set Primary Keys when you do it this way.

Import Multiple .csv Files To Access

Mar 3, 2006

Hi I have a few .csv files that i would like to upload into an access db. I saw an example for DTS, but since i dont have sql server i can't go that route.

Since i have some .csv Files where the file name changes on a daily basis, is it possible to upload them all with some wild card function. there is already a table with the fields already predetermined, and all i basically have to do is just load them all up at once.

please let me know if you have a solution.

Import Multiple Excell Files

Jan 16, 2008

Super new to the forums and hoping I can find an answer here.
After looking for an hour or so on Microsoft's site, I gave up and decided to venture into new resources.

My ultimate goal is to create a form that will prompt a user to select a Microsoft Excel file and then run a macro. The macro should import the Excel file into a single table based off of what form is being run. The idea is to have a single form for each employee of a specific department and have the form import information that is stored on our phone server into access. I've set up most of the macro but the argument section of the filename is what's hanging me up.

So finally my question;
Is there a way to have a macro run to specify what file you want to import when using an additional macro? Am I going about this the completely wrong way and should stick to VB Code?

I look forward to your responses, thank you in advanced!

Import Multiple Text Files Into Single Table

Dec 18, 2004

Hello everyone!

Here is my problem:
I have an Access database that contains a table with three columns (A & B & C). Field A is for code values and field B is for the value for that particular code. Field C holds the case number. I have a folder that contains the information for over 5000 case numbers. Each case number needs to be placed inside of the table. Considering there are 5000 case numbers, I dont want to use the import wizard 5000 times.

Furthermore, the text file only has two columns (for A and B).

I am trying to create a VBA that will append rows to the table by going into each file and placing the information into the table. The first row for each file contains the case number. So when the VBA runs, it should open the text file get the case number from the first row (field B on the text file) and place that in the case number field of the table for the entire file; and then repeat this action for all of the files in the entire folder.

Any help that can be provided will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Modules & VBA :: Import Files Listed In A Table

Jul 20, 2015

I have a folder that gets updated with a few new xml files every day. I need to import the data in these files into a table. The names of the files to import is in a field (FName) in a table (tblFiles).

The code that loads up the files is this:

Application.ImportXML DataSource:="C:ImportXML FILES" & FileName & ".xml", _
ImportOptions:=acAppendData

Up until now I specify the name of the file in an inputbox, so I have to enter a bunch of names to get it done.

I am looking for a way to get the filename from the table and then load up the file automatically.

Modules & VBA :: Import More Than 300 TXT Files And Add Filename Into Empty Field

I need to import 300+ individual .txt files into a MS Access DB table (named "tbl_input"). Each of the the .txt files have a naming convention similar to this:

Pink_Floyd_YYYYMMDD.txt

Because this initial import is so large and I would like to avoid doing it manually, I need to be able to:

import each of these files into a single table
delimit the text in each based on the "|" symbol
add the filename into an empty field

Modules & VBA :: Looping Through Files - Import Specified Cells Into A Temp Table

Jul 22, 2015

I am trying to write a VBA Module that will look in a directory for Excel files with a specific file prefix, and then import specified cells into a temp table. Once it processes the first file, it copies the file to another folder, and then kills the file. However, when I run my current code, it goes through the loop the first time, but fails on the second attempt, because it is still looking for the first file it came across even though it has been moved. The code is pasted below:

Sub Count()

Dim xlwrksht As Excel.Worksheet
Dim xlWrkBk As Excel.Workbook
Dim nIndex As Integer
Dim strMvPath As String
Dim mvPath As String
Dim strFile As String

[Code] ....

Access Query - Export To Multiple Excel Files

May 21, 2015

I have a basic access query (MACs Report Template) that I need to export into multiple excel files based on the 1st field (Plan ID).

Example:

5000
Active

AM142

MACs Report AM142 20150521.xls
MACs Report AM155 20150521.xls
