Hi, I am new to access XP. Pls. can someone tell me how can a spreadsheet control on an access form be linked to a table for retrieving data onto it. I tried export/import with a .csv/txt file but can there be a better way? Thanks in advance.
View Repliesi have created a form and added a tab control with a spreadsheet on each tab,(ex. column headings in spreadsheet, date of service,minutes tab headings ot visits, pt visits, dr visits, , however, i will need each spreadsheet to be visable when printed because forms will be used a cover sheet with summary of data
View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to have a spreadsheet type control in a form to be use for data entry and also to perform calculation. Is there a way to do that and save the data afterwards?

Im really confused on what to do
Basically I have a form, and inside that form there is the "Total Cost" field which is a field in the "tbl_Transactions" table; to display some values from a subform inside of the "Total Cost" field i changed the control source of the "Total Cost" text box to the fowllowing expression:
=[Forms]![frm_Transaction]![frm_ProductReceipt].[Form]![Cost]
But obviously because of the fact that the control source has been changed these values brought up by the expression are not put into the table so the "Total Cost" column in the transactions table (tbl_Transactions) is just blank.
Is there any way I can make it so that the values drawn up by the expression will also be entered into the " Total Cost" field in the transactions table as well as being displayed on the form?
I am trying to get the Primary Key value from one form to auto-populate the foreign key value of a second form
I have tried the following code in both the second form's Load Event and the Foreign Key Control Got Focus Event but nothing doing...
Me.[NHS Number] = Forms![frm_Patient_Data_Entry]![NHS Number]
I am new to VBA so not sure of the referencing technique but have looked at the MVPS Form 'referencing' sheet to no avail.
I keep getting an error message (2450) MS Access cannot find the referenced form "frm_Patient_Data_Entry"
I have checked spelling throughout countless times so there must be something wrong with my referencing I guess.
I am using MS Access 2010, I have three tables,
Policies (Id, Client Id, Address, Policy Amount, Paid)
Payments (Id, Client Id, Total Amount)
Payment Details (Payment Id, Policy Id, Paid Amount)
I have created a form "PAYMENTS" that include a sub form "PAYMENT DETAILS".
In the sub form control Policy Id is defined as combo box, and retrieving the list from Policies and Payments where Policies.Client=Payments.Client the query of Combo Box is as follows:
Code:
SELECT POLICIES.[POLICY ID]
FROM POLICIES
WHERE (((POLICIES.PAID)=False) AND ((POLICIES.CLIENT)=[Forms]![PAYMENTS]![ClientId]));
Only first time Combo Box display the Policy Ids according to the Client, but when I change the client and always displays the previous clients Policy Ids.
how to retrieve correct list of Policy Ids according to the Input Client in Payments.Client control
WE are starting at the very basics. We used the db Wizard to set up a db for us. Now we are trying to import the data as a csv file. We keep getting an error Field 'Field6' doesn't exist in destination table 'Contacts'. We have looked at both the excel file and the table in Access and we cannot figure out what is holding us up. Please be patient, we are learning by the seat of our pants

If I create a macro with a single entry consisting of Transferspreadsheet from a single Access table to Excel it exports perfectly. When I call Transferspreadsheet from VBA code it moves some of the data and puts them into seemingly random Excel spreadsheet columns why is this?
This issue first came about when we had to export a table with more than 65,000 records in and so I export using a table name "Sheet1" , "Sheet2" as needed but surely the table name that it comes from makes no odds?
Any help appreciated!

I am trying to connect to an excel spreadsheet and read it from access. What is the object naming scheme in excel?? I am trying to read "Sheet1" but I am getting an error. My final goal is to export a list of forms and queries list in the excel spreadsheet from one database to another. How do I know if I have "Excel 8.0"?? Here is my code:
Sub ImportForms()
Dim cnn1 As New ADODB.Connection
Dim rst1 As ADODB.Recordset
Dim strExcelPath As String
strExcelPath = "C:ModificationRequest.xls"
'Open and set recordset
cnn1.Open "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & _
"Data Source=" & strExcelPath & ";" & _
"Extended Properties=Excel 8.0;"
Set rst1 = New ADODB.Recordset
rst1.CursorType = adOpenKeyset
rst1.LockType = adLockOptimistic
rst1.Open "Sheet1", cnn1, , , adCmdTable
'Open Recordset and print test record
Debug.Print rst1.Fields(0).Value, rst1.Fields(1).Value
'Clean up objects
rst1.Close
Set rst1 = Nothing
cnn1.Close
Set cnn1 = Nothing
End Sub
I have created about 7 tables in Access, which all have the same column names. I want to export all of the table's data at the same time into a Excel SpreadSheet using VBA.
Also I want specify where i want the data to go in the SpreadSheet e.g. All data will be exported to cell A4.
Any ideas or help?
Kind Regards

I have set up a command button to export an query to Excel, then create a pivot table with the data. That all works fine however the code which opens the sheet for veiwing after the code formats the pivot table only works once. The second time the user runs the query it is in read only mode those it has been close. The code I used to open the spreadsheet is:
Dim oApp As Object
Set oApp = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
oApp.Visible = True
On Error Resume Next
oApp.UserControl = True
Workbooks.Open Filename:="I:Program FilesCount.xls"
The users are just closing excel normally. Any Ideas?
Hey Everyone,
I have an assignment that is currently above my skill range in access.
Basicly i recieve a monthly excel spreadsheet with 2 sheets.
Both are now made into access tables.
what i want to do is make macros so that when we recieve the new spreadsheet file next month i can import the data.
my difficulty is that if i go file-->import --> select the spreadsheet, etc it allows me to choose which sheet inside of the excel file i want to import. But using the transferspreadsheet macro doesnt. so it spits me an error saying it couldnt find so and so field, etc.
basicly i need 2 macros.... 1 for each sheet. to import the new data into the respective tables.
also it would be awesome if on the import it could add a field "last imported" or "last modified", etc and put todays date, etc.
any help...MUCH appreciated.

I'm trying to link a spreadsheet as a table in Access 2002. The link wizard is importing my number columns as numbers, even though I defined them as text. I need for them to be text in Access. How do I force this?
Thanks
I'm new to Access, but a coworker has a huge project to undertake. There are over 200 queries that produce 1 row results for each query. She's been cutting that row and pasting it into Excel 200 times. Is there an easy way to insert them 1-by-1 into Excel or prefereably Access?
BTW, the columns are the same on the query results. I'll keep investigating while I wait for the experts to answer.
I need to format a worksheet in excel after I transfer data to it. I createobject("excel.application") to open an excel spreadsheet. My problem is I need to freeze the first three rows, i.e when you scroll down the spreadsheet the first 3 rows always stay in view. The only way I have seen to do this is use the windows menu form the excel application. I am creating this excel spreadsheet each time a report is run. Does anyone know how to this is VBA??
Thanks
I have been tasked with converting a spreadsheet to an access database. I work for a growing firm of Tree-Surgeons (no pun intended), who service a sizeable chunk of the power grid in the UK. At any time, we have up to 150 operatives in the field, cutting vegetation around power lines. Because of the obvious danger, the power company need advance warning of where any teams will be cutting on any given day.
Various team leaders call in each day and give their intended locations for the following day to an individual who's responsibility it is to log the info onto a central spreadsheet, an Excel workbook. Each workbook contains a worksheet for each day (Mon-Fri). Each worksheet contains the following fields:
1. Number (Unique Numerical Sequence for the individual)
2. Name
3. Phone Number
4. Working/Not Working
5. Type of Line (132kv, Extra High Voltage (EHV), High Voltage (HV), Low Voltage (LV))
6. Area (in this case a lookup of 8 geographical areas)
7. SubStn Number (a name of exact location followed by nn/nnn) (LV Only)
8. Circuit and Pole Numbers (a location followed by nn) (HV Only)
9. Locality (nearest village/town)
10. Grid Reference (nn/nnn/nnn)
11. Time On-Site
12. Time Off-Site
So far I have created a table (Called Contact) for the individuals:
ContactID (Key)
ContactTeamNumber
ContactFirstName
ContactSurname
ContactMobileNumber
ContactTitle
ContactStatus
[code]....
Team Members can move between teams, but Team Leaders remain largely static.I guess I should create a separate table for Team Leaders and Team Members, with a one-to-many relationship between them? All of the others could be around the network but would not be attached to a Team Leader, so I guess they can be in the same table as Team Leaders for the purposes of tracking their location.
Also, what is the alternative to using a look-up for some of the fields, for example the Area field? I was concerned about breaking one of the commandments, and cant see a reason why, but I await enlightenment!
I've got a table with data about a contract. Each contract has his own ID. For each contract i have Information from SAP, Information from a System called geris and a System called pauschale. No I would like to Export that to Excel. With VBA, I would like to transfer the data for each ID to each spreadsheet.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to import an Excel file into access as a table so I can use the data in other tables I am building. When I try to import to file, I get an error message telling me that there are over 255 columns and not all my data will be imported. The file is a report I pull from another system at work and it is very large, is there a way to get past the 255 column limit?

I developed a db on a local verison of Access 2003 (saved in Access 2000 format). It works great thanks to much help from this forum.
I recently moved the db to a server and tested how it worked when using Access 2000 on a citrix platform. This is important since the users of the db will be using this accursed platform. A few things (vba functions) broke but I deleted the affected code. However, one thing 'broke' that I can't eliminate.
When I click a button on one form I have a transfer spreadsheet command run to export the output of a query to a particular xls file/location. However, in the citrix environment I get an error message "Formats that enable export as html, xls, or rtf are missing from the windows registry".
I'm guessing this has something to do with the citrix server setup. Is there anything I can do on my end to avoid this problem or, as I fear, am I stuffed?
Cheers,
Craig
hi
i am transferring spreadsheet from Excel to Access table
pathbgc = Path & "X.xls"
DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acImport, , "tableX", pathbgc, vbYes
pathbgc = Path & "Y.xls"
DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acImport, , "tableY", pathbgc, vbYes
This works fine as long as column names in Excel do not have periods. (.)
Other then asking whoever is sending this not to put periods, is there painless way ignore that fact that excel has it, un just do it without it ?
I need some help on this one. :confused: I have two Crystal Report generated Excel spreadsheets that are auto-updated on a daily basis. One spreadsheet contains computer assets, type, model, locations, etc. The second spreadsheet has users assigned to them, phone numbers, etc. I need to import these in to existing tables with numerous filters into my Access database weekly. They don’t change a whole lot but I need the changes to be reflected in my database.
The way I have it setup now is through a linked table, then I use a “Make table query” to filter the data.
My problem is the filtered table has relationships set up that I have to delete then recreate every time I need to run the “Make table query” because it has to delete the old table first.
Is there a better way to make this happen?
So I'm having timing issues trying to print data from an Access (actually SQL Server) based query to a Excel Spreadsheet. Basically I'm trying to get around using MS-Query and last week I didn't seem to have any problem as far as performance. However, when i tried running today it seems I've had a slow down of at least 500%. The data I'm trying to print is quite large (few hundred records and about 140 fields) so I expect some performance issues. Like I said though i just can't undestand the decrease. Possibly machine performance?
Anyhow, I've tracked the bottle neck and no suprise it is in the loop, I'm just suprised it takes so long to loop through the recordset.
Here's my code, any help will be appreciated?
'Generate grid to dump data
If intRecordSetCount > 0 Then
rst.MoveFirst
'Loop through length and width and display results
Do Until rst.EOF
intRSTField = 0
intFieldCount = intField
For intIndex = 1 To intColumnCount
Worksheets(strWorksheet).Cells(intRowCount, intFieldCount).Value = rst(intRSTField)
intFieldCount = intFieldCount + 1
intRSTField = intRSTField + 1
Next intIndex
intRowCount = intRowCount + 1
rst.MoveNext
Loop
Else
MsgBox "Recordset has not been initialized or does not exit"
End If
'Define name range
ActiveWorkbook.Names.Add Name:=strRangeName, RefersTo:= _
"= '" & strWorksheet & "'!R" & intRow & "C" & intField & ":R" & intRowCount & "C" & intFieldCount, Visible:=True
I have an export function below that will export my table "Test" to an Excel Spreadsheet.
However I want it so i can choose where that data in the "Test" table will go in the Excel Spreadsheet i.e. I want to export all the data in to Cell "B2" of the SpreadSheet - at the moment it will export all the data into "A1"
Any help or ideas?
