Exporting A Table To A Macro-Enabled Excel Workbook?
Apr 5, 2012
I am using Office 2007 and trying to export a table in Access to a Macro-Enabled workbook in Excel. Unfortunately, when I go to export the table, my file does not show when I browse for the file and .xlsm doesn't look like it's a supported file extension. I have looked around and noticed others have this problem as well. One solution was to use save the Excel file as a 97-2000 file since it doesn't change the file extension based on having macros. However, I can't do this because then I lose functionality with tables and other things on my spreadsheet. I need the data in Excel to be updated every month. Is there any way to do this in Access? I'm going to explore using sharepoint. My DB options are limited to Access and Sharepoint. I don't have access to Oracle or SQL Server or MySQL etc.
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.
Hi all, I use a d'base that exports a table via a query to Excel. Once the user hits the button to run this command it can take between 30 sec to 60 sec until the data is displayed in excel.
Does anyone know of anyway to speed this process up. Currently there are around 12,000 records with the table.

I've build an Excel workbook that contains extensive use of VBA code for UserForms, Control Buttons, etc. and also contains several sheets that are formatted as Tables and function as databases. We've outgrown Excel's capabilities and need to move over to Access.
When exporting my tables from access to excel my table names change if they have a space in the name. Example table name "New Record" turns into "New_Record".
What I am trying to do is export the table data to excel than update my access program than imort the table data back. This way I can take a vertion of my access program and update/modify it as time permits than reinsert all current data with min down time.
The code I am using is as follows:
Dim td As DAO.TableDef, db As DAO.Database Dim out_file As String out_file = CurrentProject.Path & "excel_out" Set db = CurrentDb() For Each td In db.TableDefs
I am trying to write some code to open an existing excel form, populate it, and save it with a custom filename in a directory that is built using variables I have declared.
The only part I am having difficulty with is setting the pathname. Here is my code:
Code: 'Build path to save file to spath = "S:ContractsGeomatics LABSigned" & Company 'Build File name Filename = "" & reservationNumberforForm & " " & Company & "-Payment Schedule"
'Save the payment schedule to the S: drive 'xlApp.ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:="S:ContractsGeomatics LABSigned" & Filename, FileFormat:=xlOpenXMLWorkbook xlApp.ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:="" & spath & " " & Filename, FileFormat:=xlOpenXMLWorkbook xlApp.ActiveWorkbook.Saved = True
I need to import 5 sheets from an Excel Workbook into one table. At the moment I have code which goes through each sheet and imports them. Using the Import wizard only enables you to import one sheet.
I have a procedure in Access that exports three reports to Excel, combines them in a single workbook, and then applies Excel formatting to some of the sheets. This procedure works the first time, but if I run it again it fails. In particular, I notice that things like "ActiveCell" and "Selection" will continue to refer to the previous workbook (dim xlWkb), even though I've activated the current worksheet/workbook.
Code: Dim xlApp As Excel.Application Dim xlWkb As Excel.Workbook Dim xlBwkb As Excel.Workbook
[code]....
'BillingTemp, etc. are defined earlier in the procedure. I essentially am exporting Access reports to temporary Excel files, and then opening the files and putting them in a single workbook.
Set xlBwkb = xlApp.Workbooks.Open(BillingTemp) xlBwkb.Sheets(1).Copy After:=xlWkb.Sheets(1) xlBwkb.Close False Set xlBwkb = xlApp.Workbooks.Open(PrismTemp) xlBwkb.Sheets(1).Copy After:=xlWkb.Sheets(2) xlBwkb.Close False
[code]....
'After combining the exported reports into one Excel workbook, I apply some formatting to some of the sheets.

Here's my problem. I run a database every monday that has several (more than 15) reports as the outcome. Due to the massive amount of information we can't build the data up every week. We need to overwrite the tables and recreate the "Reports" every week. The department I am creating this for wants to keep a snapshot on the computer of the 15+ reports instead of printing them out. But instead of simply creating a snapshot of each individual report he would like to see them in the format of one file with multiple sheets. The one file would be labeled the date the reports were created and each individual sheet would be labeled the name of the report. For example, This past monday when we rant he Db the file would have been lbld 10-3-05, and one of the many sheets would have been labeled "Selects", or "Rejects" or "Cost" and so on. Does anyone have any suggestions?
I'm importing data from Excel to Access using Access VBA which works fine that sheet name is first sheet in workbook. However, if multiple sheets exists in the workbook and that particular sheet can be 2 sheet, 3 sheet or any sheet. In that case how to search particular sheet name and import in access. Below is the code I have used for importing the data.
I would like to open an Excel workbook from MS Access and clear cell contents, or just delete some records in a specific worksheet.
If you open the test workbook, cell contents in RAW need to be deleted by calling from Access.
I have produced some code but it's partially working.
Code: Sub TestFileOpened() ' Test to see if the file is open. If IsFileOpen("test.xls") Then ' Display a message stating the file in use. MsgBox "File already in use!"
[Code] ....
If you put this in a standard module in access, the function works, but the part that doesn't work is where it says "activesheet". It somehow tries to recognize it as a variable, but it's not going to be a variable.
I have a question about the best way to go about linking an excel workbook to an ms access table? I have researched hyperlinks and attachments and ole objects and I am not sure what is the best option. I believe hyperlinks will be best, because the attachments will bloat the database, but I am not sure how to go about doing that in vba? My process is such:
1)Users enter project information 2)Users enter the sample information for each project 3)The project and sample information is combined by a query 4)The user clicks a button to print forms, which runs the query and opens an excel workbook template. 5)The data is exported to a specific sheet in the workbook 6)Using vba in excel, the data is used to populate cells in different sheets depending on critera.
After all of this is accomplished, I need the user to SAVE AS the excel workbook and it needs to be "attached" to the ms access 'project' table. I am not sure what is the best way to link this back to the database. I would like to automate it with vba if possible.
I have an access query with around 10 columns. One of the columns is city. There are total of 5 unique cities. I need a macro for the button in the access report that will export the data from the access query to the ONE excel workbook in such a way that each city filtered data from access is exported to city name worksheet. So Excel file would have in total of 5 worksheets with the relevant city data.
I'm using the MS Access 2010 ExportwithFormating action to export three tables to a single MS Excel 2010 workbook. The action overwrites the first excel worksheet each time instead of saving all three worksheets in a single excel workbook.
How can I export three tables into a single excel workbook.
im creating a form in design view but the icon to show the fields from the table that i want the fields to come from isnt being displayed; how do i get it to show?
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. Excel will be populated with with these numbers and all the calculation will be automatically done.
I hope I am making sense here.
I have fields in access that should export through a button and populate on excel sheet.
is there any vb scripting for this, I rem seeing something in the same context few months back, but I can't seem to find it rite now.
Im having a bit of trouble exporting some information to an excel file. ordinarily im sure the data would have been exported straight to an Excel Spreadsheet when the query is run.
However, it is exporting it as a generic file - that can then be opened with Excel (open with) and all the data is in there correct.
Im sure its something simple but i cant think what im missing.
I have created a form in access 2000 with last names, first names, and other information. I wish to export specific fields to excel by using a command button.
