Running Query In Excel On Access
Aug 3, 2007
Am running a query in Excel on an access table that uses lookup columns. The query is returning in excel with the right data but is returning the lookup value number rather than the data stored inside. How can I return the actual data value rather than the lookup value number.
i.e I have a list of areas
NY
CT
WA
in a lookup column.
User selects CT so is lookup value 2. But I want excel query to return CT.
How can I do this?
thanks

Hi all,
I was hoping that someone could tell me if it is possible to run an Excel macro from an Access database. I am importing 3 Excel worksheets into Access and this macro needs to be run on all 3 evertime that this file is imported by the user (twice a week). If this can be done could someone please tell me how ??

I wrote some code in Excel to open and run a module in Access. The code executes, but when I check the results I get no records, however if I just step back 1 line and rerun the query, I get records. Alternately, if I run the code twice it will get results the 2nd time.
The OpenCounter opens a Session in the terminal screen then performs a macro that writes to a temporary table.
Here is the code:
Dim db As ADODB.Connection, Rst As ADODB.Recordset
Dim Acc As Access.Application
Set db = New ADODB.Connection
db.Open "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Data Source=" & DBPath
Set Rst = New ADODB.Recordset
[Code] ....
One thing I tried with limited success was to tell the OpenCounter to open and close the table after it was done writing to it, but that seems like a lazy solution and it also doesn't always work.

I'm using Access 2003 and excel 2003.
We currently manually run 5 different queries then copy and paste this data into 5 separate tabs on 1 workbook, I'm trying to automate some of this process if possible.
I am trying to use the 'transferspreadsheet' action within a macro to run a query and post it into a template excel file, using this code:
Trasfer Type Export
Spreadsheet Type Excel 8-10
Table Name (query Name)
FIle Name (FIle location)
Has field names No
Range Blank
----
This does seem to work and puts the data on a new tab on the specified workbook.
However I have a few questions:
1. Can you specify which query gets put onto which tab in excel? The tabs have different fixed names.
2. Can you specify which Cell the data gets pasted into to? As each tab has a set of headers and titles which need to remain.i.e would need to get query 1 to start in cell A4.
3. How would you expand the above out so that it runs all 5 queries, would you just add in multiple transfer spreadsheet actions in the same macro?

I am using Excel and Access 2010.
I have an excel spreadsheet with 8 tabs. They are all in the same format and column order. They are employees grouped by region. My ultimate goal is to merge all of these onto one excel tab, relatively instantly. I created a master tab and tried doing array formulas and Vlookups, it worked but my spreadsheet was way too slow.
My solution? Import and link them to an Access database, step complete. Create an XML export then import into Excel.
My problem? The only way to update the excel tab with the combined tabs is to save the excel file after changes, go back into Access, re-export to XML, then go back into excel and refresh the data.
My questions, is there any way to automate this process to the point that I can change excel, save, then hit refresh on my excel tab with the XML import to auto-update?

Good morning,
I am having some kind of problem. A query in Acces that is used to find results in the DB is asking 2 time's te input.
And there is no way that the input boxes is asking to do this twice..
here is the Query,
SELECT tblHotlines.Hotlinenummer, tblHotlines.Vestigingsnummer, tblDealers.Postcode, tblHotlines.Datum_hotline, tblBestellingen.Chassisnummer, tblBestellingen.Onderdeelnummer, tblBestellingen.[Uitleverings datum], tblBestellingen.[Vervangende auto ingezet?]
FROM (tblHotlines LEFT JOIN tblBestellingen ON tblHotlines.Hotlinenummer = tblBestellingen.Hotlinenummer) LEFT JOIN tblDealers ON tblHotlines.Vestigingsnummer = tblDealers.Vestigingsnummer
WHERE (((tblHotlines.Vestigingsnummer) Like [Geef het vestigingsnummer op] & "*") AND ((tblDealers.Postcode) Like [geef evt een gedeelte van de postcode:] & "*") AND ((tblHotlines.Datum_hotline) Like [Geef de datum op:] & "*") AND ((tblBestellingen.Chassisnummer) Like [Geef het chassisnr op:] & "*") AND ((tblBestellingen.Onderdeelnummer) Like [geef evt het onderdeelnr op] & "*"));
Qhat could be the problem that Access is running a Query twice before getting results

I have a table for timesheet entry for a local building firm. I have a separate table containing employees and rates. I have created query "Qry_ Time Costs" which calculates the cost of hours worked by each employee by multiplying the hours field in the timesheet entry table by the rate field in the employees table.From "Qry_TimeCosts" I have created "Qry_TimeCosts1" in which i have included a running total field for time costs per day using the DSum function.
SELECT Qry_TimeCosts.[Project Title], Qry_TimeCosts.[Build Element], Qry_TimeCosts.[Date Worked], Sum(Qry_TimeCosts.Hours) AS Hours, Sum(Qry_TimeCosts.Cost) AS Cost, DSum("[cost]","qry_timecosts","[project title]='" & [project title] & "'" & "AND [build element] ='" & [build element] & "'" & "AND [date worked] <=#" & [date worked] & "#" & "") AS RunTot
FROM Qry_TimeCosts
GROUP BY Qry_TimeCosts.[Project Title], Qry_TimeCosts.[Build Element], Qry_TimeCosts.[Date Worked], DSum("[cost]","qry_timecosts","[project title]='" & [project title] & "'" & "AND [build element] ='" & [build element] & "'" & "AND [date worked] <=#" & [date worked] & "#" & "")
HAVING (((Qry_TimeCosts.[Build Element]) Is Not Null));
This seems to be working for some projects and not for others. In particular dates 3rd 4th and 5th of June seem to be showing null fields, where all other dates have values. A few projects are showing inaccurate running totals whilst others are working fine.

I am creating a batch in an Access Query to decompress files that come in from an FTP site. When I right click on the query and export it to a TXT file I get all the line items of the that I want without the header of the query field name. When I run the following command;
DoCmd.TransferText acExportDelim, "Decompress2 Specification", "qry_FileNameChange2", "J:operationsDecompress2.txt", True
(Where "Decompress2 Specification" is the name of the Spec)
I get the name of the field as the first line item and then all the line items I am looking for. I use the same Spec when I manually run it or when I run it from the code. how I can get rid of the first line item when I run it from the code?
I run a batch file to change the txt extension to bat.

I have DB in access 2007. I have a report that is uses a select query to generate the information for the report. It has been working great, But however lately like maybe with in the last month, it has been causeing Access 2007 to crash. I am having the same issue with another DB that uses the same information but that information is imported in. both Databases have worked great up until two months ago. Microsoft states that it is because of the program. I have tried to repair the DB by using the Repair option. I am confused as to why this would be happening. I can create a new report and it seems to work. but I do not want to change all the DB on everyone's computer just for this reason. I also have two buttons on my report that utilize macros to close or print the report.

I have a larget transaction data set in access with Datetime column/filed.
I have been running pivot queries to excel to do analysis of the data but the datetime field is returning too many unique values for the pivot table to run.
What is the best way to reduce the datatime field to date only and where should this be done?
i.e. should I have a calculated field that trims datetime or should I set someohting up in Powerpivot?

I have the attached DB.
On the form I have a button which will send the results of the Access Query2 to an Excel spreadsheet-OK, this works and no problem.
But what I would like to do is push the button and it will send the results of the Access Query2 to an existing spreadsheet called caseloadmgt.xls which is located on my desktop - C:Documents and SettingsJim.BlackDesktopcaseloadmgt.xls
And the next time I push the button to run the query again I want the new data to start 2 cells below the ending of the first query results in the spreadsheet.
I have tried to follow all the examples I could find and I guess I just don’t know enough about this to make it work. What I need is someone to correct/ or change my code and put the new/corrected code in the DB where it should go

Hi folks!
I've got my application working wonderfully and now have set up some reports in Excel. People want to be able to manipulate the data and I figured this was easiest...the users don't know how to create their own report within Access but are Excel literate.
My workbook has two queries (setup using Microsoft Query) back to the database...the data is returned to the workbook and then sorted within the workbook using Excel formulas.
This works fine all data is present and correct and the results are accurate.
HERE'S THE PROBLEM
My database keeps corrupting. The LDB file isn't being deleted after the last person exits the database. I downloaded the LDBUTILS from Microsoft and found that when a person accesses the database via the Excel workbooks the session is left in a suspect state and this is causing the corruption.
I know it's not a server permissions error because I created the folder and am the owner of the file. I have full control of the files and folder on that part of the server yet my own PC frequently leaves the database in a suspect state.
Does anybody know what I can do to stop this? Is there a piece of code I can add so that when the workbook is closed the database session is also ended cleanly?
Thank you in advance
Jo

In Excel I have a sheet with about 3000 rows. Each row has an id. I need to retrieve a field from an Access database for each id in the Excel file.
I know how to query the Access database from Excel, but I don't know how to set the query to use the id's in the Excel sheet instead of an Access table.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Folks,
I have a form with combo box (cboProjForRptSeltn ) and two command buttons. The combo box is filled with name of the reports. The combo box has two columns, column 1 is the name of the report and column 2 is the bound column which also is the link field (primary key) to limit the records.
When the user selects an item from cbo box and click the "Preview Risk Table" command button it will open a report in preview mode. The report's "Record Source" property is set to a UNION query (qryRprtRskTbl) which pull the records from several tables. The report's "Filter" property is set to the following criteria:
“qryRprtRskTbl.P.intProjectId=Forms!frmReportSelec tionBlrR1!cboProjForRptSeltn”
The above criteria is nothing but filter based on the value of the cbo box.
The click event procedure is as follows:
Private Sub cmdPreviewRprt_Click()
Dim strDocName As String
strDocName = "rptRskTblProjectWise"
DoCmd.OpenReport strDocName, acPreview, "qryRprtRskTblFilter_r1"
End Sub
"qryRprtRskTblFilter_r1" is another query out of the UNION query I mentioned above (qryRprtRskTbl). qryRprtRskTblFilter_r1 is pulling all the records from qryRprtRskTbl which meets the projectID field selected in cbo box, which is also the same as the "Filter" property value of the report as indicated above.
Everything works fine with cbo box and "Preview Risk Table" command button. It just pull all the records for the project selected under cbo box and display it as report in preview mode. Looks great!!
Here's my problem. I wanted to export the same report that was previewed by the user to Excel. For this I am using, another command button called “Export to Excel”. The click event of this procedure is as shown below:
Private Sub cmdExportToExcel_Click()
On Error Resume Next
Dim xlApp As Excel.Application
Dim xlSheet As Excel.Worksheet
Dim xlWorkbook As Excel.Workbook
Dim acQuery As QueryDef
Dim objRST As Recordset
Dim strQueryName As String
Dim strSearch As String
'Dim strSQL As String
'strSearch = Me![cboProjForRptSeltn]
strQueryName = "qryRprtRskTblFilter_r1"
'strQueryName = "qryEffcyAllProjtsForRprt"
Set xlApp = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
xlApp.Visible = True
Set xlWorkbook = xlApp.Workbooks.Add
Set objRST = Application.CurrentDb.OpenRecordset(strQueryName)
'Loop through the fileds collection and make each field name a column heading in Excel
Set xlSheet = xlWorkbook.Sheets(1)
For lvlColumn = 0 To objRST.Fields.Count - 1
xlSheet.Cells(1, lvlColumn + 1).Value = objRST.Fields(lvlColumn).Name
Next
'Change the font to bold for header row
xlSheet.Range(xlSheet.Cells(1, 1), xlSheet.Cells(1, objRST.Fields.Count)).Font.Bold = True
' I have some codes here for formatting Excel cells …
'Send data from Recordset out to Excel
With xlSheet
.Range("A2").CopyFromRecordset objRST
.Name = Left(strQueryName, 31)
End With
Set xlSheet = Nothing
Set xlWorkbook = Nothing
Set xlApp = Nothing
End Sub
When I click the command button, it loads an instance of Excel and adds a workbook under the query name "qryRprtRskTblFilter_r1", but no data.
If I use another query say, "qryEffcyAllProjtsForRprt", which has no connection to cbo box value then it is cool, exports all the data to Excel without any problem.
I guess, you folks understand what I am trying to achieve here. Basically, I wanted to give the user some flexibility, either they can view the data as Access report or Export to Excel with same formatting feature and add more later if they want after exporting, as they see on Access report preview.
I have attached some of the query files I have described here. May be I can clarify more down the road, if necessary.
My bottom line question is: why the “qryRprtRskTblFilter_r1” query runs perfectly on Access reports but not when I want to run to export to Excel?
I don’t want to use the TransferSpreadsheet or outputTo method of docmd object, because I wanted to do some formatting before I export to excel.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I am using the DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet statement that successfully exports a query result set into excel. I was wondering is there a way to get this result to populate certain fields of an existing excel spreadsheet that I have created and need the information for. Right now the query just creates a new worksheet in the specified workbook.

I am writing an Excel VBA code to connect to an Access db and execute an access query. After executing the query, I would like to display the result in the excel spreadsheet.
I was successfully able to make the connection to the access db using the following code:
Set db = OpenDatabase("file name", False, True, "MS Access;PWD=abcd")
However, I do not know what code to use to execute a query named "qrytest" on the Access db and show the result in this Excel file.
Can anyone teach me how to do this please?
P.S. I searched this forum for about 1/2 hour before posting this. Please excuse me if this was addressed anywhere before! Would appreciate a link, if it was.

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.

Hey folks,
Not sure if this is the best forum but decided to put it here anyway.
I have a Access query that reads:
SELECT bleh
FROM blah
WHERE something > 10
Then in Excel I pull the data across using:
Set qdf = db.QueryDefs(qryName)
Set rs = qdf.OpenRecordset
and paste the data using
ws1.Range("IV1").End(xlToLeft).Offset(0, 2).CopyFromRecordset rs
I now want to change the query so the where statement reads
WHERE something > [amt]
So the question is how do I pass the value for the parameter value for [amt] from excel to access?

Hi all, I seem to be getting this error when I try to import a query from MS Access to Excel:Too Few Parameters. Expected 1.Now, it runs fine in Access and seems to be a Microsoft Query problem, I know there are some issues around the performance and capability of Microsoft Query but hopefully someone can have a look at my query and see if they can identify my "too few parameters" :)(Sorry about the largeness of the query...)SELECT YPOL_LoadTbl.[Channel Done], YPOL_LoadTbl.[Canvass Code], Sum(YPOL_LoadTbl.[Handl Nisd Amt]) AS [SumOfHandl Nisd Amt], YPOL_LoadTbl.[Issue ID]FROM YPOL_LoadTblGROUP BY YPOL_LoadTbl.[Channel Done], YPOL_LoadTbl.[Canvass Code], YPOL_LoadTbl.[Issue ID]UNIONSELECT "ALL" AS [Channel Done], "ALL" AS [Canvass Code], Sum(YPOL_LoadTbl.[Handl Nisd Amt]) AS [SumOfHandl Nisd Amt], YPOL_LoadTbl.[Issue ID]FROM YPOL_LoadTblGROUP BY YPOL_LoadTbl.[Issue ID]UNIONSELECT YPOL_LoadTbl.[Channel Done], "ALL" AS [Canvass Code], Sum(YPOL_LoadTbl.[Handl Nisd Amt]) AS [SumOfHandl Nisd Amt], YPOL_LoadTbl.[Issue ID]FROM YPOL_LoadTblGROUP BY YPOL_LoadTbl.[Channel Done], YPOL_LoadTbl.[Issue ID]UNIONSELECT YPOL_LoadTbl.[Channel Done], "ALL" AS [Canvass Code], Sum(YPOL_LoadTbl.[Handl Nisd Amt]) AS [SumOfHandl Nisd Amt], YPOL_LoadTbl.[Issue ID]FROM YPOL_LoadTblGROUP BY YPOL_LoadTbl.[Channel Done], YPOL_LoadTbl.[Issue ID]UNION SELECT "ALL" AS [Channel Done], YPOL_LoadTbl.[Canvass Code], Sum(YPOL_LoadTbl.[Handl Nisd Amt]) AS [SumOfHandl Nisd Amt], YPOL_LoadTbl.[Issue ID]FROM YPOL_LoadTblGROUP BY YPOL_LoadTbl.[Canvass Code], YPOL_LoadTbl.[Issue ID];Thanks!

What I am trying to do is populate the specific fields on excel sheet based on access query. so say I have 3 separate fields Name, Job, Salary on excel sheet (already designed excel sheet). and my access query has all 3 fields pulled up for all employees. Now if a person selects his "Name" on access form person should be able to see prepopulated excel sheet with his name, job and salary. I know I have to go recordset path.

I have made a form on access which will be used by other employees within the company, however they have never used access before and they are wanting to access only just the form as I feel with Access and all the tools in the background will confuse them, plus I don't want them editing the data base its self.
Is there a way to only bring up the form, unless I obviously need to edit the date base.
I've done some research on Google and it seems I need to use:
SW_SHOWMINNOACTIVE
However I can not seem to find how I would use this or where?
and also if i did find a way to only bring up the form, how would I be able to switch it from that veiw to the veiw I edit in?

I use an Excel interface to retrieve data from an Access file that has approximately 1 million records. I use an MS Query from Excel to run an Access Query to retrieve the data.
I have 16 "Criteria" fields (columns) in Excel that I change with drop-downs. Each criteria column has 2 to 9 values set; a total of 75 values. I pass these criteria fields to Access via a table link in Access.
The criteria of the fields in the query that is run in Access to pull the data based on the table link is updated by using the Values In A List (IN) option.
When I refresh this query in Excel, it pulls the data fine, but may take 10 minutes to run. (I am using MS Office 2003, 1Gig memory). I have limited VBA knowledge. Is there a better/faster way to pull this data?

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
