I need a little help in the following topic:
There is an Access (2002) database used at our company covering its different tasks; different mdb files are used for different tasks (storage, invoicing etc.). All of them are linked to a central file that holds the tables.
Some of the users use more files; the same colleague uses for example the storage module and the service module.
I'd like to keep it this structured but I'd like to make it easier to change between the files so the user don't have to quit manually from the storage moduel and open a service module, giving his password for the tenth time per a day.
Could you help with an advice how I could do with VB that by clicking on a button the presently used file closes and another preprogrammed one opens.
(For closing I'm using DoCmd.Quit but no idea how to open something)
I really appreciate your help.

I searched the archive and didn't find quite what I was looking for, so..
I have an Excel 2003 spreadsheet work-in-progress being used as a template (developed by others) to prepare project cost estimates in a complex regulatory environment. We are 'modelling on the fly' for a number of projects until we are comfortable with the estimate model, after which time I intend to incorporate our 'stable' estimate methodology into Access. Meanwhile, I am 'stuck' with the Excel spreadsheet.
I have a project tracking database (Access 2003), and I want to be able to track my estimates. I do NOT want to embed my spreadsheets into the db, just a filelink. There can be more than 1 estimate per project.
Ideally, the user should be able to define a project in the Access db (or select one already defined) and click a 'make estimate' button, which would generate a new Excel file in a predefined directory (based on the present version of the .xlt file), give it an appropriate filename (based on the Access ProjectID and estimate sequence number for that project if there were others already), open up that workbook in Excel, and then autopopulate some cells based on information showing on the original form in Access!
A separate button for 'Open existing estimate' will eventually be required, but I think I could do that if I can get someone to walk me through the steps required above.
I am somewhat familiar with vba in Access, but am an absolute rookie when it comes to excel.
Edit: I left out that I would also add an appropriate record to a table like tblEstimate which would contain the link(s) to the estimate(s). This table will obviously contain a FK to tblProject
I have an excel file linked to a table in Access. Several fields are date data types in excel but are showing up as text fields in Access.
My real goal is to do a comparison between two tables, but only if the date of the one piece of data is newer than the other. I had planned on comparing the two date fields but even though I have formatted the date fields in my excel file to be "Date", when I look at the design view of my table it is showing up as "Text" and therefore I am unable to do this comparison.
I'm not sure if it's just something that I'm missing but maybe someone else knows an easy fix to this. I know this is probably a simple question, but I did search the forum and didn't find a thread that specifically dealt with this issue.
Thanks in advance for your help.
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?
i want to export a table to excel , open this file and execute a macro from another file.
the code i have now is :
Code:
DoCmd.OpenTable "Overzichtaanwezigheid", acViewNormal
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdExportExcel
DoCmd.Close acTable, "Overzichtaanwezigheid"
Dim XL As Object
Set XL = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
XL.Workbooks.Open ("C:UsersErwinDocumentsOverzichtaanwezigheid.xlsx")
XL.Visible = True
XL.Run "d: est.xlsm!Macro3"
Opening the excel file goes ok, running the macro however not.
Hello,
sorry to post again my question but just cannot find a solution.
I have a table and would like to copy data into a template in excel. I know that the code will have to make a copy of the template and then copy the data into the new workbook into sheet1.
My table (table1) has 3 fields: SSN, FNAME and LNAME.
I want to copy these fields into cells B1 (for SSN), B2 (for FNAME) and B3 (for LNAME).
I will use a combo to select the recorset to copy.
My problem is how to copy data into the template. I understand that it is necessary to run a copy of the template and then copy the data into the new xls file.
Is there a way I can do this via code? Code help is appreciated. Thank you.
how i can export the data from Access to excel using Access VBA for the specified sheet using data linkage with access database. Like we used to do it manually in excel as external data from access.Like we have some codes for linking excel file to database mentioned below;
DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acLink, , "region", "F:DB PracticeBook1.xlsx", False, "region"
Can we have something like this to link database table in excel file automatically.So that the excel size won't be that big and also it saves processing time.
I am very good with computer programs, microsoft and the like.
However, recently i have been working on Ms Access. I am trying to make it do a look up as you would do in excel
whereby for example:
I could just type in a DVD ID on a form and it uses a look up to find the DVD name or vice versa but i havent been able to get it to do it.
Look ups on access just help in the creation of drop down boxes (combo box) or list box Which i dont want!!
Simply: i want ms access to "fill in the blanks" for me i.e the dvd name when i enter the dvd id
Help!! Please!!!
We currently have a spreadsheet to track all of a clients medical's bills and keep a running total? I'm trying to decide whether to continue to track these medical bills in the spreadsheet or create a table and make it a part of the client db. I'm leaning toward keeping the spreadsheet. It seems to be a task a spreadsheet was designed for and I can link it to the db or import it as needed. Any opinions on which is better? What would be the reason to to give up the spreadsheet and make it a part of the db?

I want some guidance in regards to how should I export access form as a report to excel. I already have fields with formulas in it and here I have fields where I have written down the numbers, so when these numbers get exported to excel.

I'm new to Access.
I Work in excel but the Sheets start to have many records and, sometimes it's difficult to apply the formulas.
My doubt is: Itīs possible to make with the Access "everything"
that i make with Excel.
Example I apply formulas like:
=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP('[Total.xls]2006'!B2;$A$2:$AG$802;33;FALSE));"";IF(ISBLANK(VLOOKUP('[Total.xls]2006'!B2;$A$2:$AG$802;33;FALSE));"";VLOOKUP('[Total.xls]2006'!B2;$A$2:$AG$802;33;FALSE)))
Thanks in advance
Hi,
I'm new to this so please go easy!
I have an excel document which automatically refreshes data gathered from an access db.
I need to put a button on the switchboard on the same db to open the excel document, basically to make it easy for others to find.
I have tried hyperlinks but it doesn't want to play. It locks the db and then won't refresh the information.
I know i'm missing something blindingly obvious, can someone help?!
:confused:
Thanks

Hello,
Apologies if I have placed this in the wrong section but thought it was more access than excel.
I would like to on clicking a button, which simply has a close command behind it, for the database to zip the spreadsheet which it has just exported information to.
I have had a look round and tried to use the backup of database idea but could not convert it and did not know enough myself to change it.
I would greatly appreciate any help or guidance
Thanks
HI,
Excel is having difficulties calculating a workbook of mine. It complains about cirkular references, so I had to set the iterations manually.
The workbook holds about 5000 records and Iīm using a cosinus function.
The thing is I donīt know what to do. Excel calculates the workbook, but it doesnīt do it right. What setting should I use with the iterations?
Iīm thinking of running it in excel 97. Will that help?
I really need to be able to run this workbook. Does anyone have an idea?
Fuga.
Hi,
I was wondering if anyone might be able to help me here.
I have a question. Is it possible to create new worksheet in Access using VBA code?
What happen is that i have a form in Access that would export data from Access to Excel. I know that i could use the built-in feature provided in Access to export to excel. But because i guess i want to be more flexible in managing the data on excel spreadsheet. So would it be possible to write the excel programming in the Access?
Sorry for asking but i just want to know.
Thank you in advance
