Modules & VBA :: Import Multiple Excel Files With Different Number Of Sheets Into Table

Jul 12, 2015

some code I've come up to in order to import multiple excel files each of them with a different number of worksheets into an access table. The procedure is called from an Access database. The problem I have with the code is that when it encounters a workbook with only one worksheets (e.g. Sheet 1) it gives the error that "Sheet 2$" is not a valid name. When geting to a workbook with 2 sheets it says that "Sheet 3$" is not a valid name and so on and so forth. Is there a way to "check" the number of sheets in the workbooks and when it has only one sheet to transfer it and go to the next file?

Below is the code:

Code:
Sub ImportExcelFiles()
Dim strFile As String 'Filename's
Dim strFileList() As String ' File Array
Dim intFile As Integer 'Number of files
Dim filename As String
Dim path As String
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
path = "D:Tranzactii"

[Code]...

Tables :: How To Import Excel As A Table

Mar 12, 2013

I am trying to build a DB for work at the gas company. Currently this is tracked on 10 excel flat files and I want to make this process more efficient. The company DB is oracle based and the system is not set up for me to limit views just to my information. Therefore I am trying to build an access DB to handle this.What I am doing is downloading a copy of the DB info (which includes everyones area) to an excel spreadsheet and linking this to access as a linked table so I can use this information. Unfortunately, this means it makes a linked table without a key field.

However, according to information that I have read, I am unable to use this linked table in a form because it makes the form not updateable??? Is this due to the linked table and if so, is there a work around?

The reason I link this information is due to multiple fields that are updated hourly/daily. If I turn this into a table, then I will have to either manually update these fields constantly or create additional steps in order to recreate the wheel so to speak. I don't need to be able to update the linked information in the form, I just want to see it when doing the data entry for the purpose of specific dates, previous surveys, previous survey results, and for flagging due dates. Is this possible?

So far, the only information that I have been able to research on this is how to link information or how to import excel as a table but nothing that speaks of how to use a linked table in a form or what limitations a linked table has.

Tables :: Import Data From Excel Into A Table

Jun 1, 2015

User imports data from Excel to a table but i am not sure that the user will import right data into the table.

So in case a error comes due to a record, i want to cancel all the changes/updates done because of that excel file.

i.e if there are 10 records to be imported and error comes while uploading 5th record, then all the 4 records updated earlier should be recalled / reversed / cancelled...

General :: Large Table Import / Way To Import Tables To Access

Sep 17, 2013

I want to make a database of diseases (need to learn them for school and would like a serchable database on my smart phone for future reference).
Unfortunately spent a lot of time making hundreds of pages of word tables before i realized a database would be better. See attached image or pdf. Is there a way to import the tables to Access?

I need to preserve the hierarchic info in the nested bullet point lists. E.g. under treatment i might have a point called Acute treatment, with sub-levels, Step 1, Step 2, etc. with their own sub-levels. I need to maintain this relational hierarchic info.

Tables :: Import From Excel And Append To Existing Table

Apr 7, 2015

I am trying to import from Excel and append to an existing table. My excel sheet is named tblStatus and I am trying to append it to my Access table "tblStatus".

I get an error message that says "The first row contains some data that can't be used for valid Access Field Names. In these cases, the wizard will automatically assign valid field names." (I used the excel sheet to set up my table.) After I click OK, I get to the point where I can click finish, and I get a "Subscript out of range" error.

MY row headers are:
strOrderOps
strOrderNo
strOperation
strOrderType
dtmBasicStartDate
dtmActualFinishDate
dtmCalFinishDate
strStatus

I am not sure what is going on.

Format Excel / Import

Apr 14, 2008

Hey Guys,

I read several threads for suggestions, and most of them ask to import raw data into a temp table then append. But thought I see if this would be possible instead. The following codes imports all excel files in a folder, and extracts the date from the file name and puts that into a field in the table. And also moves the imported file to an archive folder after import.

Private Sub btnImport_Click()
Dim strFile As String 'Filename
Dim strFileList() As String 'File Array
Dim intFile As Integer 'File Number
Dim path As String
Dim TheDate As Date
Dim fs

DoCmd.SetWarnings False
path = "C:UsersChinaboyDesktopData" ' Path that stores Historical Report Downloaded files.

'Loop through the folder & build file list
strFile = Dir(path & "*.xls")

While strFile <> ""
'add files to the list
intFile = intFile + 1
ReDim Preserve strFileList(1 To intFile)
strFileList(intFile) = strFile
strFile = Dir()
Wend

'see if any files were found
If intFile = 0 Then
MsgBox "No files found"
Exit Sub
End If

'cycle through the list of files
For intFile = 1 To UBound(strFileList)
strFile = path & strFileList(intFile)

DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acImport, acSpreadsheetTypeExcel8, "tblAgentSummary", strFile, False

'Adds date to callDate field based on the date on file name.

TheDate = Mid(strFile, 54, 2) & "/" & _
Mid(strFile, 56, 2) & "/" & _
Mid(strFile, 58, 4)
CurrentDb.Execute "UPDATE tblAgentSummary SET callDate =" & "'" & TheDate & "' where callDate is null"

'set directory to look for next text file

Next intFile

'Moves imported file to Archive folder

Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
fs.MoveFile "C:UsersChinaboyDesktopData*.xls", "C:UsersChinaboyDesktopArchives"

DoCmd.SetWarnings True

End Sub

Is it possible for me to open each excel file in thebackground in the folder, format it before or during the import process. What I need to do is first delete rows 1 and 2, delete column B, D, F, and I. Then move to the last row with data then delete that row along with the previous 2.

I found this code that I thought may help, but I am not sure how to work it in with my exsiting code. Any suggestion and idea will be greatfully appreciated.

Private Sub Command0_Click()

Dim xlApp As New Excel.Application
Dim xlwrkBk As Excel.Workbook
Dim xlSheet As Excel.Worksheet

Set xlwrkBk = xlApp.Workbooks.Open("C:Documents and Settings34036460 Project Files140 Excel AutomationXOR27NovB.xls")

Set xlSheet = xlwrkBk.Worksheets("OpenExchangeOrders27Nov")

xlSheet.Rows(1).Delete

xlwrkBk.Save
xlwrkBk.Close

Set xlSheet = Nothing
Set xlwrkBk = Nothing

xlApp.Quit

Set xlApp = Nothing

MsgBox "Done"

End Sub

Tables :: Import Excel Into Table / Overwrite Data Of Fields Imported

Mar 17, 2015

I have a table, which contains many fields, around 90. Out of these 90 Fields, around 40 will be imported from an Excel sheet, which has same headers as the 40 field names in my table, in which they have to get copied.

So when I import data, it copies them as new records, instead what I am looking at is, the records in Excel and in Access table has a Unique Key, so when I import data, matching with this unique key, the fields should be overwritten into those records from Excel, instead of adding new records.

E.g:

Say I have 2 records in my access:

ID(auto generated) Fab_name Issue_ID Location Remarks Data_1 Data_2 Data_3
1 Fab1 193 NY Bug OC DC MC
2 Fab2 641 DRS Error AC KC FC

Now when I am importing data from Excel with the following records:

Fab_name Issue_ID Location Remarks
Fab1 193 NY - GRM Solved
Fab2 641 DRS - SGP Forwarded

So when I import the above data into my Access from Excel, based on Issue ID, it should update the values of different fields that are imported from Excel, leaving other fields (data_1, Data_2, Data_3) as it is.

And I need this to be written as a macro, so that user just has to choose the file, which he has to import.

Import Wizard (Excel Correct Format)

Jan 26, 2007

I am trying to import an Excel2002 file into Access2002 using the import wizard. There is a hidden worksheet named 'Data' with 5 ranges defined (Page1-5), one of which I am trying to import: I am getting the following error message –

“Import Spreadsheet Wizard -- The wizard is unable to access information in the file ‘D:xxxx.xls’. Please check that the file exists and is in the correct format.”

I have successfully imported other Excel files from the same folder, but using a different original file. The original Excel file giving me the trouble was created in 1999 but has been saved with Excel2002 version.

Can anyone tell me what causes the “correct format” error? I am confident it is something having to do with the Excel file. I've attached a zip file with the problem workbook.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Import Excel Worksheet In Access Table [with Lookups]

May 31, 2007

Hi there,

I'm pretty new to Access so I hope this question is not to simple/stupid ;)

Ok, I have an Excel Worksheet that I want to import into an Access Table. The column headers are identical! The only problem is:

- the Access table looks up a couple of the columns from other Access tables. When I try to import the Excel data, Access does (properly) report an error.

- Error: the records from the Excel file were added to the Access table but not all values were imported (no values were imported into the lookup columns...)

Any idea how I should procede so that I can import my data into Access?

Thanks!
Steve
