Tables :: Export Table In Spreadsheet Format Automatically At Given Time Or Date?
Sep 23, 2013
I have a simple and small database having only one table. I want the data table to be exported in a spreadsheet format automatically at the end of the month. Is there any code or function to do that?
I have a Query derived from a single Table in Access 2010 which I routinely export in spreadsheet format.
I have now built a report from the Query in which has labels have been added to suit an external agency. I wish to export this Report in Excel format, but the resulting file does not include the additional labels and is merely an xls version of the underlying query.
Is there an alternative method of achieving what I need?
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.
I wanted to assign the field "Number of magazine" with special format based on date/time format but showing only year and month in the format: "yyyy-mm".
So in property of this field in format I put yyyy-mm and in input mask I type 0000-00;;-
I also created the form based on the table containing above field and I defined format and input mask for corresponding formant in the same way like at the table.
But if I try to type date for example 2014-01 in text box of the form it comes up with the full date 2014-01-01. Why does it do like this? What do I do incorrectly?
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?

I work at a hospital and I have been able to copy and paste data from a patient list into an Excel spreadsheet into a list I can customize to track patients I work with. I had a macro that would take the data copied and pasted and organize it in the way I needed it in a design that works for me.
I'm trying to convert this system to Access to give me more control over the data and to try and make the process of creating the list a little more automated. I also have an Access database for "tracking", which is required by hospital management so I was hoping I could use the patient list database to streamline the process of entering interactions into the tracking database.
I'm not sure how to get the copied and pasted patient list into an Access in a way that will let me manipulate it in Access to do what I want it to do without having to add several steps of a) pasting it into Excel, b) importing the spreadsheet into the Access database, and c) cleaning the data that ends up in the final Access table.
Is there a way to import data in a spreadsheet or table format directly from the clipboard, which would allow me to skip Excel altogether? I'm using Access and Excel 2010.
I am trying to format a spreadsheet to import into a Table. To do this I need to delete the top 8 rows and then the 4 rows below the data I need, both areas contain header data. The 4 rows below the data I need are blank but formatted oddly and it is causing issues during import.
Code: Sub ExcelFormat() Dim excelApp As Object Set excelApp = CreateObject("Excel.Application") excelApp.worbooks.Open ("Z:DataTest.xlsx") End Sub
I'm creating a query with VBA, then exporting it to Excel. I have a couple calculated date fields that are exporting in the format of dd-mmm-yy, but I want them in the mm/dd/yyyy format. In the query, they're in the proper format, but not in the export. I tried using Format([DateField],"mm/dd/yyyy"), but then they left align in the export, but are fine in the query.
Any way of setting up a table containing the following date/time fields.
StartDate StartTime EndDate EndTime
Ultimately I will need to be able to subtract these date/times to get a total time between the two. Should I combine the start date and times in one cell or keep them separate.
In either scenerio, how do I subtract the two in a query for a report?
The transfer spreadsheet function only allows one to export a table from the database to an excel file format. I want to output the table to a file in csv format using a simple function. Is this possible ?
Right now to get my Access database into MySQl I have to copy it out of Access into Excel then I export it to a delimited text file.
I would like to eliminate the Excel part and go directly from Access to a text file.
The problem is with the date fields. When exporting from Access it always adds the time (00:00:00) which MySQL chokes on. It seems there should be a way to do this with the export function, so that the date is just the date and no time.
I have a CSV file and want to convert it in a text format with some filtered data and with some formatting. This is an everyday task for me. So I made a table and imported the data in to it by the command :
Actually I have a column "SERIES", contains various series like "EQ", "BE", "DR", "BZ", "D1" and so on. And one more column with the dates having 4 / 5 current months dates and one next months date and one next to next month's date. And every date has got several thousand records.
now the issue is that : After importing these several thousand records, I want to export it but with a specific date and with a specific series.
The other thing is that, these dates change every month so if hard coded, the problem will occur the next month.
this code is working fine but when the month will change, the code won't work.
Can we have a date & series picker attached to this query, so it can export the records with the specified SERIES & DATE.
I tried putting a textbox on the form named TxtDate and in a Query ( Design mode ) under the date column, in criteria I have put [Forms]![Futures]![TxtDate] and after putting this line, the query becomes empty and no data is there.
I'm exporting a query from Access to an ASCII text file. It is automatically adding a time stamp (0:00:00) to the end of ALL of my date fields. I would like it if it didn't do this...:D
I wish to insert in a table, not the date, but just the month and year (yy/mm or mm/yy), for example 05/10 or 10/05 for October 2005 (the order of yy and mm does not matter). In addition, I need to be able to sort the records chronologically using the same field. I have tried various solutions with the date/time field or the number field (e.g. using yy.mm where the mm are the decimals). However, it does not seem to work correctly. Any suggestions for how I can do this by configuring the format, inputs mask and validation rule? Niels
I have imported a appointment database that I need to analyse, however the Date & Time data within the table has been written as; Date: 20051220 - which I would like to read dd/mm/yyyy (20/12/2005) Time: 800 - which I would like to read as hh:mm (08:00)
I would like to produce a report of all the queries, i.e. longest appointment, shortest etc... but display them in the correct Date/Time format.
So how should I go about this? I cannot alter the imported table in anyway.
1. Can I produce a mirror like table of the existing table, that automatically use the correct Date/Time format? 2. Can I alter the values within a query? 3. Can I alter the final output in the Report?
Hey guys, been away from Access and SQL for some time. I have a simple 2 column table with one thats set to Date/Time that displays the date only. Unfortunaly, when I run my query, the date comes out 7/9/2005 and I want it to come out as 7/09/2005. I know I am going to have to force it out with a format command, but its been so long that I have no idea how to. Right now my query, in SQL format, looks like this.
SELECT * FROM Table1 ORDER BY Date DESC
I just need the format command to force the date. If anyone can help, thx.
I have 2 date fields date1 and date2 , and i have date/time data type but what i want to be inputed is in dd/mm/yyyy and not mm/dd/yyyy, what do i need to do in accees both date fields properties to make sure it is in UK date format. thanx
I have played with the format and input mask but i am lost dont know what to do.
I have an inherited database with years worth of julian dates stored as numbers (e.g. days 1-366 for a leap year). I also have some fields stored as short dates. I would like to run a series of parameterized queries on this data, some using the short data and some using the "julian dates" that are actually just numbers. I have the user enter the start and end date in short date format and would like that to be converted and held in an unbound field as a number value. So far I can get the date to appear as a "julian date" (e.g. 1/1/08 appears as 1, obviously the underlying data is still 1/1/08) How do I take that 1 and convert it to number value "1"? Thanks in advance.
I am working on a report in Access2000 which is getting information from several tables via a number of queries. I am using nested IIf() functions to combine text formatted data in a calculated query field before using it in a report.
One such IIf() function is
Desc_col: IIf([HOVR - UDP].[SERVICE] Is Not Null,[DA] & " " & [SEQ] & " " & [TYPE] & [MO] & " " & [SUB] & " - " & [HOVR - UDP].[SERVICE], IIf([MinOfCCT] Is Not Null,"I/O DIST CAB " & [UDP - JC CIRCUITS-05-F].[PWR] & " - CCTS " & [MinOfCCT] & " thru " & [MaxOfCCT],IIf([DESCRIPTIO] Is Not Null,[DESCRIPTIO],"Spare")))
When I have tried to do the same thing with date fields it does not work. The function is fine as long as it is not nested.
That is
Rev_col: IIf([Rev_HOVR] Is Not Null,[Rev_HOVR],"")
and
Rev_col: IIf([Rev_Elec_equip] Is Not Null,[Rev_Elec_equip],"")
both work.
But when I combine them into a nested function
Rev_col: IIf([Rev_HOVR] Is Not Null,[Rev_HOVR],IIf([Rev_Elec_equip] Is Not Null,[Rev_Elec_equip],""))
I get an error message "! Data type mismatch in criterial expression"
There is no data mismatch in the original tables from which the information was extracted. The dates are all in DATE/TIME and set to "General"format in the tables.
I am wondering if I will have to use Visual Basic function to combine these fields. However that poses a problem. When I've looked at this I find that runtime VB is no longer available in Access and I do not want to go out and buy it on the offchance that it will work.
Can anyone tell me if there is another solution to my problem?
I have set a field on my FORM with the General Date format. Every time I use the date picker it inserts the correct date with a time of 00:00? I even changed the format on my table to general date - still no luck.
