Tables :: Importing More Than 255 Columns Of Data
Sep 14, 2013
I have a project concerning lists of external files. The spread sheet holds the source data on a document per line basis. Each row contains vital data ClientID, ClientName, DocDate, DocDescription, MainPage, Page1, Page2, Page3.... up to Page 585
I have done previous work where importing up to 50 columns has never been an issue.
For some reason in this case I am unable to import more than up to 255 columns and also I lost all the reference data past column 30.
I have tried importing directly to a SQL Server Db - same issue
Access 2010 and this in 2013

I was using Excel.We do transportation, I have two columns Which means 2 Records One is from address a to address b.And another from address b to address a it's not always like that The return can be to anywhere I want to make one table called 'locations'.I can set the relationships to both fields using that table or so I think But what about the last five years worth of data I can't seem to split my data correctly.

I have 2 identical database in terms of structure but it differs in data.
Basically I would like to import data from subDatabase to mainDatabase and ensuring that there are no duplicate records.
I have used the "link to datasource method" through importing the tables to have the "updating" function.
However, this method also means that the records in mainDatabase are also imported over to subDatabase which I do not want.
Is there a method to ensure that the records are shared/update one way only? (i.e. import from subDatabase to mainDatabase and not main to sub?)

Hello everyone,
How can I transfer or import data (NOT TABLES) from two related tables. The two tables have parent-child relationship and have multi fields. I tried to use the import command but it imports tables rather than data. but I want to move data not the whole table. I can use copy and paste command but I couldn't copy both main data and sub data at the same time. I could be able to copy the main data all at once and paste them but they don't take the sub records along with them unless I copy them record by record and pate them to the corresponding file, which is very time consuming for a very big data.
Is it possible to create a command that imports data from two tables at the same time? Note that these tables I am trying import data from have the same format but different field names.
These data are collected using the same application but by different users at different locations and I want to transfer them to our main data base. If any of you can help me with this I really appreciate. Thanks.

I'm trying to perform a massive data dump. I have about 1,000 records that need to be added into my database. This is coming off an Excel spreadsheet.
I don't know if this is possible:
I have a table, tblTorders, which is linked to the table, tblItems.
When I open the tblTorders, I can click on the plus sign to expand and see the related data in tblItems.
How can I import data to populate the fields in both of these tables? I can't use the import function because you can only select to import it into one table.
Do I do it through a query.... I'm not sure where to go on this one.
Thanks so much

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.

I have a spreadsheet of generators with associated data: Make, Model, etc.
When I build the tables for the Make, each make will have it's own PK. Is there a good way to update the spreadsheet, replacing the Make for the PK other than using the find and replace function in excel (or update query in Access).
Example:
tblGeneratorMake
GeneratorID (PK)
GeneratorMake
John Deere has PK of 1
Kohler has PK of 2
If my spreadsheet has a list of Kohler generators, I need to change "Kohler" to "2".

I am building a database for a coworker. For one table, he'd like to extract data from different companies' financial reports, specifically a Schedule RC-B (schedule of securities). The format it comes in is PDF, but there are options to download XBRL, SDF and Taxonomy. My computer doesn't recognize any of these other formats. Plus, I'm guessing each company will have a slightly different format, so I don't know if there'd be an efficient way to set up an automatic import. Any way for importing/extracting data from these files?

First off, its been a long time since I have been here (since sometime in 2003 LOL), partly because I didn't have to create a new db in a while. Now, I have been handed a project and come across something new.
OK, here is what I want to do. I would like to be able to dump data from an Excel file into existing Access tables (two to be more specific). Now, I also have relating tables that add data into certain fields. I tried using a query to try to group data ad hopeful able to dump data through the query. I noticed that I couldn't import data through a query. Just for kicks, I tried to pull data through table and noticed that I can only create a new table, not able to update and existing table.
How would I go about performing this task? I have never attempted anything in the past.
Thank you in advance for your considered help,
Steve

Dear Sir/Madam,
I am having the problem of importing a database from Excel/Msaccess 2000 to a Msaccess 2000 database from which the data was originally exported. The Database consists of two tables connected in a querry and the two tables has a unique primary key thru which the two tables are linked using a querry. While importing only two tables are listed in the importing wizard and not the querry.
So how to import the data to the two tables connected by a querry using a primary unique key.
help me the procedure.
lrnathan
thanks in advance

I've been using MS Access 2007 for years to manage some Excel data. running some queries etc. Just recently I've been encountering problems when importing data into an existing table. When I do it now, I get a "Subscript out of Range" error. To troubleshoot, I imported into a new table and when doing so, the fields no longer match the column order of the spreadsheet. They all get imported but appears in a different order. I think this is why I am getting the error message. How can I go about ensuring that the data gets imported properly into my already existing table? My fields in "Design View" will match the order of the Columns in the Excel spreadsheet.

I've got an Excel sheet with +700k rows and 20 columns that I wanted to import to Access. All fields are text except the field that I want to use as a primary key, but I planned to import that as a text as well.
When I used the import wizard, I set all fields to import as text except for three that I set to memo. The wizard didn't say there was any error after importing the data, but when I checked the table, I noticed there were *a lot* of records where many fields where blank. Some fields where completely unaffected by this problem throughout the entire table, but in the rest of them, there is data missing in many records, and when there is data missing, it is not always the same fields that are missing. I have been unable to find any pattern that explains why sometimes the records were imported correctly, and why sometimes they were not.

I'm able to import new data from excel just fine, but I can't import updated data from excel due to duplicates not being allowed for a particular field. Is there a way to keep from importing duplicate records based on one field, but still import data from other fields where the information is different from the excel file?

I have various columns of data, a mixture of text and numbers, which all have data in them, and a few columns that have numbers or text. When I copy'n'paste-append into the Access table, the text in the sparsely populated columns doesn't copy across but the numbers do.
It works if I import the spreadsheet from scratch (don't want to do that however, that data comes from somewhere else and would require modification to suit), or if I sort the data so that the text is at the top of the column, it works. Don't really want to do that either as there are 5 columns that this applies to and performing a 5 level sort shouldn't be necessary IMO. It seems that the paste is analysing the data and deeming that it should paste as a number even though the column contains text. There are only 120 rows of data, not a lot! I've tried redefining the field as Long Text (currently Short Text) but it doesn't make any difference.

I need to add two additional columns for each imported spreadsheet, which are not in the original files.
First column, named 'Customer Name', needs to retrieve information from cell A6 in Excel file, which is not part of range "name" that is imported to Access. If necessary, I could somehow include it in this range but then I still would have a problem of how to repeat a value of A6 in each row of table in Access.
Second column, named "File Name", I would like to include an Excel file name from which data was imported. Again, I would like to repeat value for each row in the table, i.e. if I have 6 rows with data from file X, I would like to repeat X.xlsx in each row in column "File Name".
Code:
Dim strFile As String
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
DoCmd.RunSQL "DELETE * FROM Data;"
' Set file directory for files to be imported
strPath = "C: est"
[Code] ....

hi,
Is there any way i could import EXCEL worksheet into an existing ACCESS table programmatically; like using ASP code.
Something like, i could upload a EXCEL file from a browser and then it can be imported into an existing table.
And if possible also check for duplicate keys and update those records. If no records exist then insert them.
I really need this, because the users get loads of worksheet data to update.
Please do help
