Import Excel Data From Multiple Sheets Into Multiple Tables In Access
Aug 25, 2012I 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?
Tables :: Changing Field Data Type But Keeping Data
Oct 23, 2013I have a field in a table that is comprised of mostly numerical data but some records are text.
I want to convert this field to numerical only and make a new field to put the textual data in.
However converting the field will delete the textual data. What is the easiest way to convert the field but save the textual data AND append the textual data to the SAME record that they were in originally in the new field?
Changing Case Of Data Already In Access Tables
Dec 8, 2006My database is now live within our office and is working fine.
The databases which I have imported the data from, where done by my dad, who being old fashioned, used CAPS for everything he typed. So for quite alot of the data, its all caps, and it would be great, but not essential if we could revert the text to normal sentences.
Is there any trick or code that I could run that would go through certain tables and reformat the text in to a better format??
Changing Data In Query Results Changes Data In Source Table
Dec 17, 2012I have a table and a simple query that pulls results from the table. Nothing too crazy. But, if I were to go in and change some of the data/values in the query results it will change the respective data in the table. I know that this cannot be right. What do I have to do to either prevent the ability to change query results and/or prevent any changes in the query from altering the original data in the table.

Mar 3, 2015I need to update the names of my ODBC linked tables in my Access database, how can I do this without causing issues with my queries/reports?The current linked tables are to a SQL View on a database called mcsrm_live, and called e.g. vwDamagesReportNew
The new SQL views that I need to link to are identical in structure and content and on the same SQL server but different database - forkdw and are called e.g vw_R_Damages
Is there a straightforward process to do this without affecting the queries and reports in my Access db?

Nov 10, 2005I have a table that contains all of our company pricing for services. You can see a screen shot of the table here:
http://www.x-raysband.com/table1.jpg
All of this data is locked and cannot be changed by the user. However, the seasons keep getting mixed up. What I mean by this is that suddenly there will be a record missing from one of the seasons and there is a duplicate record in one of the other seasons. See the spot-shadowed fields here:
http://www.x-raysband.com/table2.jpg
Off season and Spring are now missing entries for CDJ, INC but the records that belong in those places are now showing as duplicate entries in Prime and Regular. Simply put, the season name somehow got changed within the record, but there is nothing in the system that allows a user to do that.
This has been happening ever since I added the pricing feature to the DB and I am completely stumped. Our work DB has the tables stored in a SQL server back end.
If anyone can shed some light on why this might be happening, any help would be appreciated.
Changing Table Data Via Forms
Mar 7, 2006Hello everyone, and thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
I am currently working on a large project to track, issue out, and re supply an operational stock of various tools and parts we use in our shop on a normal basis. This program is in it's beginning steps at the moment, and already I need some help.
If anyone has any tips on how I can change the raw numerical data in my table, via a textbox and a command button on a form, I would be greatful. I am trying to avoid allowing users to directly modify table data. Although this method is what I am aiming for, I will gladly accept any suggestions. Thanks

Changing Table Data Using Form
Sep 8, 2004My scenario is that a user enters how many parts of 'Part No.' are going in or out of Inventory. I also would like fields automatically entered on other tables based on the data the user enters. All I need is some understanding of how to code something like this or a pointing in the direction of a resource that can tell me how to code this VBA stuff and the syntax required.
Hopefully you get what I mean.
Thanks.
Changing Data-type In Table?
Sep 27, 2011My database consists of one large table of approx 3.9m rows and about 12 different columns. One of my columns is of a data type "date/time" but i need the format of this column to be "text"
The problem is that when I right click the table/go to design view/ and try to change the data type, I get the error "Microsoft Access can't change the data type. There isn't enough disk space or memory."
Which means i can't take the easy way out. Is there a way I can just create a new identical table and change the data type of my one column? I was thinking there might be something in SQL I could do, or some how in creating an identical table where only the field type has changed. I should note, I looked up this using the access in file, and it appears the ALTER TABLE SQL will not work on my machine.
the dataset was created from a txt file which as been lost to the ether, and I can't import the database into excel using a macro I didn't write unless the format of my column is text.
Modules & VBA :: Exporting Data To Special Excel Sheets
Sep 22, 2013In Access i can create different contracts with different running time.
I have contracts with a running time of 4 years, 6years, 8 years, 10 years and 12 years.
I have for each contract a different Excel file.
The users can choose via an Inputbox, which contract he wants to Export in Excel. In the Inputbox he enters the SuWID.
Now i want that the the Excel file with the Special running time get opened.
4 years ----> ("C:UsersGRIMBENDesktop4years.xlsm")
6 years ----> ("C:UsersGRIMBENDesktop6years.xlsm")
and so on.
Code:
Dim xlApp As Object 'Excel.Application
Dim xlBook As Object 'Excel.Workbook
Dim xlSheet As Object 'Excel.Worksheet
Dim rst As DAO.Recordset, SuWID As Long, tmpStr As String

Update A Table When Changing Data In Another Table
Dec 2, 2013I have a training Database in Access 2010 that I am creating. I have "courseindex" which is the table that has course titles and the course required frequency. I also have "trainingcompleted" which is the table that contains all training my employees have completed. The form "training" contains employee data and all training each employee has completed.
On the form "training", the training completed is selected from a combo box, which is pulled from the table "courseindex". When I update the combo box, I would like the training frequency field that corresponds to the selected training to auto fill in my "trainingcompleted" table.
Once completed I should be able to generate a report, where the user enters a date range and it will tell me who is due for training within that time frame. I have the forms, tables, and reports set up. I can enter the next due data in manually each time I update a record, but I would rather that data be updated automatically, since the frequency for each training will never change. I have over forty courses that employees must take. Some courses are required annually, some bi-annually, some every five years, etc...

View 1 Replies View RelatedChanging Data Source (table) For A Query
Jul 18, 2006Hi,
I have two Tables TA and TB. I have a set of queries based on TA. I want to substitute TB for TA (i.e. TB will stand in place of TA). I want the old TA queries remain unchanged but now be based on TB.
If I delete TA and then rename TB into TA, I will lose the queries. Therefore I want to 'point' the queries (in the most efficient way) to TB instead of to TA.
Then I can delete TA. Then I can rename TB into TA and the queries will follow along, I expect.
I have been trying in vain to find a way of pointing the queries to TA instead of TB? How do I do it?
I have done it with Forms (Design Views, Properties), where I can select a datasource. But where is the corresponding thing enabling me to select a datasource for Queries?
Thanks.

Forms :: Form Is Changing Table Data
Aug 29, 2013I have a form that allows users to click on an item in a listbox and it brings them to the selected record in another form. However, everytime I close the form and open it, it changes the client name in the list to the client ID.
List is set up like this
Client ID | Client Name| Order Date
1 Mike 2013-08-04
2 Jon 2013-08-15
3 Mark 2013-08-17
ETC...
Turns into this on close - Changes the client name to the ID of the last item selected before close
Client ID | Client Name| Order Date
1 Mike 2013-08-04
2 3 2013-08-15
3 Mark 2013-08-17
ETC...
Select statement is:
SELECT Client.[Client ID], Client.Client, Client.orderDate FROM Client ORDER BY Client.orderDate;
Code is:
Option Compare Database
Private Sub Command22_Click()
'opens the form with my subform that holds the table data
On Error GoTo Err_Command22_Click
Dim stDocName As String
Dim stLinkCriteria As String
stDocName = "Client1"

Tables :: Unable To Create A Database By Compiling Records From Multiple Excel Sheets
May 22, 2013I am trying to create a database by compiling records from multiple excel sheets. however, since most of the clients still uses the excel sheets to enter records, I am thinking if it's possible to create a linked table in access from these excel sheets that are hosted on an online server.
also is it possible to merge multiple linked tables together? if they have the same field range, so they will append when the linked tables gets updated.

So Excel file would have in total of 5 worksheets with the relevant city data.
View 2 Replies View RelatedAppending Excel Sheets Into Access Table
Aug 17, 2015I'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.

The first one loads fine, but after that I get errors and can't load anything else. All of the sheets are in the same format, so that shouldn't be the problem. Every solution I've tried has been a bust. All I want is to take all of my data and put it into one big database. Any suggestions?
View 8 Replies View RelatedModules & VBA :: Import Multiple Excel Sheets To One New Table
Nov 19, 2014I 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.
Stop Access From Changing Format / Value Of Data Entered From A Form Into A Table
Oct 7, 2012I have a database (split into front and backend). Users populate the table using a form on the front end. Recently, it has been pointed out that some of the data entered into one specific textbox is being changed on the table. The data entered is always has a minimum of a letter and number value i.e. "A1", "A2" etc. Upon examining the table, this has changed into numeric values i.e. "1291", "1061", "852"... etc. Looks like it is translating them into both 3 and 4 digit numerical values by the looks of things. Where more complex data is entered such as "2(A1, A2)" these seem unaffected.
The field is set to text, I have set no validation rule, format or input mask. Just can't see why access is changing these values. It seems to be translating them, but I can't see a pattern.
