May 29, 2005Is there any way of converting MS Access Forms(And module behind) to Visual Studio.Net?
I have a pretty comprehensive MS Access DB that has several complex forms. I want to redo this DB App in Visual Studio.Net but don't want to recreate the forms from scratch if there is any way of converting/importing or any shortcuts/tricks to accomplish this.
Thanks in advance for any help!

Side note: Anyone ever added credit card billing capabilities to their db? Where to start? (I know.... Post in another thread....)
Access Developer Extensions And Visual Studio 2005 Professional Edition
Jan 1, 2007I have developed an Access mdb file with lots of tables, forms, queries, reports, and VBA code. I want to be able to distribute this to Access-less users. I understand that the Access Developer Extensions enable this to be done and that the two wizards assist.
My first question is this: Are the Access Developer Extensions and the two wizards included in Visual Studio 2005 Professional Edition?
I ask because this is what was recommended by a Microsoft representative and is what I’ve purchased. This came along with something called MSDN Library, but I’m not sure what that allows me so it is possible that this library will contain the elements that I’m searching for, but so far I’ve not found it.
Are the Access Developer Extensions only provided as part of the Visual Studio for Microsoft Office Tool package, as I’ve seen referenced in several forums and articles, including yours, or are these in fact part of other tools, such as the Professional Edition of Visual Studio that I’ve purchased?
Any help or advice is greatly appreciated.
Modules & VBA :: Convert To Excel Files And Import Into Access Database
Aug 7, 2015I have files that have extension of TSV which are text files but viewable in exel. I figured out a way for the user to click on a button in Access which does the following
1. Run Macro in Excel: The macro prompts the user to select the TSV file. After selection, macro opens the employee.tsv file in the excel (with excel being invisible) and saves it as employee.xls
Code:
Sub SaveTSVtoXLS()
Dim myPath As String
Dim myString As Variant
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
With Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogOpen)
[Code] .....
2. Imports the Excel file (employee.xls) into two tables: tblEmployee and tblDepartment using the following codes.
Code:
DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acImport, acSpreadsheetTypeExcel12Xml, "qryDepartment", selectFile, True - 1, "A1:C2"
DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acImport, acSpreadsheetTypeExcel12Xml, "qryEmployee", selectFile, True - 1, "A1:AE2"
Everything is working flawless except that the user has to select the file three times:
1 time for the tsv
2 times for the xls file
Is there a way that the user can select the file only once (tsv file) or at least only twice one of the tsv file and the other for the xls file?
Queries :: Import Multiple Unstructured Text Files Into A Database
Nov 24, 2014I have an excel spreadsheet, that has a long list of names and unique numbers (of medical lab results)
I have another folder which has many text files (the actual lab reports), each of which has a file name that corresponds to one unique number in the excel spreadsheet.
How can I import the content of the text files into a single memo field (e.g. "LabResultContent") in the original datasheet?

Import Multiple .csv Files To Access
Mar 3, 2006Hi I have a few .csv files that i would like to upload into an access db. I saw an example for DTS, but since i dont have sql server i can't go that route.
Since i have some .csv Files where the file name changes on a daily basis, is it possible to upload them all with some wild card function. there is already a table with the fields already predetermined, and all i basically have to do is just load them all up at once.
please let me know if you have a solution.
Import Files Into Access Automation?
Apr 1, 2015I have a form on access which allows users to upload csv files.
The files can be in any layout, so the field names and the number fields will always be different each time.
This can cause issues on data types, as access assumes a certain data type for a field, but the data may not always reflect that.
For example telephone numbers, access assumes this is a numeric field, however sometimes there will be symbols in this field such as +44. Which then causes import errors.
Is there any way to import these files without getting these sort of errors?
Currently the import process uses a simple TransferText method
DoCmd.TransferText acImportDelim, , "Original Data", Me.filelist.RowSource, True
This imports the data into a new table called 'Original Data'.
I had the idea of saving the table structure of the csv being imported (Importing the data with errors, then deleting all the records to just leave the structure) However I can't find a code to change the data types of that table to TEXT format, when I can't tell what the field names will be.
This whole thing is an automated process, which why there are loads barriers btw.
Import MS Excel Files Into One Table In MS Access
Jun 27, 2012Im familiar with Ms Access, but have never used VBA or Scripts. I have 37 Excel files with the same data and would like to import into one file. Data will be received on a monthly basis into the same directory and I would like to automatically upload the data into the same file in Access.
View 1 Replies View RelatedModules & VBA :: How To Import Data From Text Files Into Access
Nov 6, 2014I have a text file that details every single incident that happened in the system. This means that it is extremely messy and non-comprehensible to a normal person due to the use of codewords and all.
Is it possible to scan through the document and insert the data into access, such that the different keywords are put as seperate events?
Ps, the number of characters between each event and data may not always be the same, so seperating them by that is not the way to do it. However, when I open the file in notepad++, I can confirm that each event is 6 lines.
E.g. Line 1 = Event timestamp, Line 2 = Event Name, Line 3 = Acknowledged or not, Line 4 = Acknowledged by who, Line 5 = Event Details, Line 6 = Application Owner.
Basically, the 6 lines are the 6 columns that I would need in my table. So, is it possible to separate out and read every 6 lines of data in the text file?

Modules & VBA :: Import Csv Files And Rename Them After Import Into (imported) And (failed)
Jul 17, 2015I have the following piece of code for importing the .csv files from a selected folder and then renaming them into 'imported & filename' if succesful and 'failed & filename' if import failes for whatever reason (bad formating, etc.).
The problem is that the first time it encounters a 'bad' file after another, instead of going again to the Error handler, the command
Code:
DoCmd.TransferText acImportDelim, , "Activitate", filename, True
gives me the default MS Access error, namely 2391. I would like it to go the the Error_handler again ang follow the course of actions and rename the files into 'failed' and 'imported'.
Here's the code:
Sub ImportActivitate()
Dim strFile As String 'Filename's
Dim strFileList() As String ' File Array
Dim intFile As Integer 'Number of files
Dim filename As String, sFullName As String, sFilename As String
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
[code]....
Also, how can I make the routine stop cycling through the files after I renamed them all?

Best Way To Import SQL Database To Local Access Database?
Dec 25, 2005I'm new to Access and VBA, for the record. What I need to do is copy a SQL database (table structures and records) and save it as a local Access database, so that the user can query and make any changes on the local file without editting the SQL database.
Looking around, it seems like the best option would be to use the TransferDatabase method with the acImport option. Does this sound reasonable, or can someone with more experience suggest a better way to go about it? Thanks.
Modules & VBA :: Edit Recent Files Of Access Database
Mar 18, 2014Is it possible to edit the recent files of a access database?
We have a main database (version control database) from where you can open a database which is located on a network drive.
By selecting the datbase you need from a dropdown menu, access will check which version you have locally. If there is an updated version available on the network it will download this updated version, overwriting the old one. The 'main' database is then closed and the local version of the database you needed is opened.
The problem is that this local database is mentioned in the recent files history so people are able to bypass using the main database.
In Excel you can clear the recent files with application. Recent Files setting the maximum to 0 and back to original again. In Access you do not have this option.
Where I would be able to find this option. Ideally I'd like to only take out a specific databasename from the recent files, rather then resetting the full list.

How To Import Phone Numbers In Access Database
Oct 31, 2012I imported an Office 2010 excel file into Access 2010. All the headers match.
All the data transfered, but the phone numbers.
In Design View, the phone numbers are listed as numbers, not text.
Then I tried to copy the two columns from Excel and past into the two columns in the database. No go. It did create a new table called Paste Errors.
How do I move that into the Table that I first created?
I need to know how to get the phone numbers in their because I need to import several other excel files into this table.
How To Import Dbf Files Automaticly?
Apr 9, 2008Hello all
this is my first post. I've tried to get my info without any luck so i ask my question here.... hope it's ok.
I want to import some dbase files that comes from an accounting software and ask Access some queries. The queries part is perfect. My only problem is how can i ask (in a general menu of my Access application) access to go and get those dBase files?
I want the user to be able to have a button asking him : " Do you want to import new data?. And then it will update Access. I don't need to append the data just overwrite the old data. I'm not doing any manipulation of data on the files, just asking questions. (Hope i make sense...)
They are always on the same directory on the server.
Thank you for the help!
How To Import Csv Files With Newlines
Feb 16, 2006Dear experts,
I need to import a csv file into a Access table. Some of the fields contain newlines, these field should go into a memo field (they're > 256 chars) which are to be displayed in a report later.
Unfortunately, Access (and also Excel) treat newline chars (vbCrLf) as field separators, resulting in a lot of garbage... I'm interested in one of three tricks:
1) find a way to import the csv file with newlines
- or -
2) replace the newlines by unused chars before import, e.g. by '#!' and replace them after the import in the table
- or -
3) replace the newlines, and re-insert them back in by an expression in a query or a report
I have succeeded to import the file with the newlines replaced. I did not succeed to re-insert newlines (at least not with "Replace"), and I couldn't find a way reconstruct the newlines with an expression or in a report.
Has anyone an idea or better trick to do the job ?
Thankss....
