I have a problem, so I am trying to append data from excel which works fine but I want to append it to the next empty available row in the datasheet view. At the moment it is just appending it to the top, first line. Im using MS Access 2007-2010.
how to do this?
How do you import data from excel using fields that already exist? In other words, I need Access to append the data to the records rather than try and add it to the recordset and throw a tizzy when duplicates are created.
Thanks....
Hello All,
I am exporting data from Access (2000) to Excel using a criteria form. I would like to append data to the Excel sheet without clearing the current data. How can I perform this function?
Here is part of my code:
<BEGIN CODE>
Set myXL = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
Set myWB = myXL.Workbooks.Open("C:WO_Activity_Report.xls")
myWB.Sheets ("WO_Activity_Report")
myWB.Save
myXL.Quit
Set myXL = Nothing
<END CODE>
Your assistance is greatly appreciated.
I'm creating an automated system on access, basically it uploads client's files and analyses their data. The files will always be different, with the amount of fields changing and with different field names each time
One part of it, is appending new contacts to their data. This means records which we can add new contacts to, needs to be duplicated with the new contact placed at the end. So it needs to be like
Company Name New Contact Name
A
B
B Tom
B Harry
Because it's automated with different field names each time, the duplicating part is an issue. I can use the * rule which appends all fields, however this will not work in this case, if we are adding more than 1 new contact, the new contact will be duplicated rather than having 2 new different contacts.
Ideally I want rule saying, append all fields EXCEPT the fields where the new contacts are placed, but I don't think this is possible
I'm using Access 07 for this. Using a mix of VBA and SQL in the modules
I'm trying to make a sub form that displays the hours of an employee selected in a listbox. I've got most of it working but having a bit of an issue.
The info for thre query is in 3 tables:
tblStaff (name etc)
tblShifts (start and end times for days that this employee works)
tblDays (a list of days names so I can use numbers elsewhere)
My query looks like this:
Code:
SELECT tblDays.dayName, IIf(Nz([startTime],"")="","NWD",[startTime]) AS start, IIf(Nz([endTime],"")="","NWD",[endTime]) AS [end], tblStaff.staffName
FROM tblDays LEFT JOIN (tblStaff RIGHT JOIN tblShifts ON tblStaff.staffPK = tblShifts.staffFK) ON tblDays.dayPK = tblShifts.workingDay
WHERE (((tblStaff.staffName)=[Forms]![frmMain]![lst_myTeam] Or (tblStaff.staffName) Is Null));
This worked fine with a single user and some test data - it correctly displayed all days of the week, with start/end times on Mon and Tues where I had entered shift information, and "NWD" against all other days.
However, when I add a couple more employees to the mix it shows the correct info for the first employee, but anybody else it will only display days where person 1 doesn't have any hours. I haven't entered any hours for the new employees, but the query should still display Mon-Sun with NWD in every column. It shows Wed-Sun but Mon and Tues are missing.
I've tried different join types but they all come back with "ambiguous joins" error when I try to run.
I'm having trouble appending an excel sheet into my access table.
I have 8 columns in my excel sheet:
1- full_name (short text)
2- alias (short text)
3- email_address (short text)
4- user_ID (short text)
5- Location (which is annotated using numbers 1,2,3,4 etc.) (number)
6- active (yes/no)
7- TRI (yes/no)
8- Another user ID (Short text form)
I am trying to append this data to an existing table in excel with the EXACT same column names.
I can append each column from my excel sheet separately and they will appear on the access table, but once I try to append all of the columns at the same time, so the records are not placed in different rows, I get a message saying "Script out of Range"
I cannot seem to figure it out since they can be uploaded individually.
Just to clarify, the excel columns are formatted to the access columns.
I am developing a database for incoming inspection. I have set up two tables, one with spec callouts per product and the other table contains fields where I want the specs from the tblSpec table to be Append into the tblMeasurement table. Now, within the tblMeasurement table (where I am trying to append specs from the tblSpecs table into), I also have additional fields for actual measurements from received goods.
My plan is as I go through and select the Vendor, it populates the associated products to that vendor (no problem there). When I want to select the product, I would like the specs from the tblSpecs to dumped into the tblmeasurement table that correlates to that product on the form.
How can I have this automatically append after selecting the product? I am not sure if I have my relationships set up correctly or not, but I cannot see to append when I am trying to execute this function while in Query view.
I have the db attached in a zipped format.
I'm spinning my wheels on this. Trying to copy a recordset into an existing excel file.

I am using Access 2007 and we are importing an Excel spreadsheet that is received from our customer on a regular basis.When I open the Access table I see over 9,900 empty rows at the start. Following this is the actual data from the spreadsheet.Is there an import setting somewhere that would eliminate all these blank rows?

I have a table that has records of accounts, actions taken, and operator ids. Unfortunately, the records are incomplete. The report was written poorly so that there is a row that contains data in all three fields for all subsequent rows there is only the action taken, no account or operator. So my table looks like that the records below. As you can imagine this means that I cannot write any useful queries on what happened on various accounts. How I can append the account number to every row that pertains to that account number?

I want to import an Excel spreadsheet into a table in my Access DB.
I am using following: DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acImport, 0, "tblSchedule", "C:mailinimport.xls", false
This code works but it is appending to the table.
What is the best way to update the table - or would it be best to delete the old table and then to create a new one to import tha data into?
If the latter would be most elegant solution, can anyone help with some code that would do this ?
Thanks

I have a linked ODBC table in my database that contains data like this -
Code:
Task Serial CrewAmount

01_BORESCOPE INSPECTION 706496AS114.24
01_BORESCOPE INSPECTION 706496AS223.24
[Code] .....
What I would like to do is remove the duplicate values for the Task field, but show how much time each Crew has spent on each Task per Serial. The end result would look like this -
Code:
Task SerialAS1AS2AS3OMAOMB
01_BORESCOPE INSPECTION 70649614.2423.2428.78
00_INSTALL ENGINE INTO PEDESTAL STAND 7073080.20.2

What is the best way to achieve this result? I've played around with Append queries, union queries etc, but nothing seems to give me the result I'm after.
I use Cognos to pull raw data from Oracle. I take this data and put it into Access 2010 tables to then run queries. Because the people creating the data in Oracle are often slow, I run back data to catch missed information, typically two months. For October, for example, I'll run October and also September and August.While I have new data, I also have a great deal of duplicate data. How can I ensure that I append only the new data and exclude the duplicate data?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to automate a repeated data import event. Here's the user process I'm aiming for:
We have a handheld barcode scanner which will be used to enter orders into an excel spreadsheet with the following fields:
PatrolID, UsedDate, ItemsID, NumSignsOut
After scanning in an order, the user will plug the scanner into a computer and download the spreadsheet to a predetermined file location/name.
The user then opens Access and pushes the 'Process Order' button which imports the excel sheet and generates an invoice.
I already have the invoice process working, I'm now trying to get the data import to work. Here's the table structure:
tblSignUsed:
UsedID, PatrolID, UsedDate
tblSignUsedDetail
UsedDetID, UsedID, ItemsID, NumSignsOut
tblSignUsed Joins tblSignUsedDetail ON UsedID = UsedID
tblSignUsedDetail is the line items, tblSignUsed is the orders. Therefore, the import function has to first take the first two columns to generate an order in tblSignUsed and then take the second two columns to generate order details associated with the order which was just created.
I'm fairly new to Access, but have set up a database containing 8 normalized tables. I would like to know if it's possible to update all those tables by importing an Excel file into each table, or importing the Excel file into one Access table and then appending that table to those 8 tables. AND STILL MAINTAIN THE RELATIONSHIPS. The Help directory only talks about importing or appending into one table.

If I specify the criteria in the field to refer to a specific value in the local table, it updates it just fine. I want an append query because I don't want to manually update 500+ records!! I don't believe an update query would work because the values are not in the current linked table... so nothing to update!
