The following all is set to occur in Excel VBA (i.e. why it's not in Access forum)
I know of a way to create a database using a new ADOX catalog, BUT as there is a dedicated "CREATE DATABASE db_Name" SQL statement., I was wondering how you can execute a SQL statement (as you would to create a table) when there is no file to which you can connect yet.
I have searched for some manner of execute statement in ADOX, but all I can find is Create in the ADOX library.
I tried to connect to the prospective save folder location, but the error prompt indicates that the location is in use or it cannot be accessed.
Using Excel 2007.I have references set for Microsoft ADO Ext 2.8 for DDL and Security and Microsoft AciveX Data Objects 2.7 Library.

I am trying to create a 'Database' of Project Managers where by a skill can be entered into a cell and the VLookup will lookup the Project Manager that has this skill. There is the posibility that there will be more than one Project Manager with the same skill, formula so that the Lookup can return multiple values
I am seeking assistance in creating a 'database' type function within EXCEL workbook. I need to create a record of all job applications within our area and only a handful of staff have access let alone know how to use access. All are able to use spreadsheet/workbooks. Would like to be able to have entry page (i can do this fine) but I would like a search funtion that will allow staff to be able to track the progress of applications and add comments etc
I am trying to create a cross-reference database in excel. I am not sure if I am using the correct terminology, so here is what I need to do:
I have three columns that contain text cells, each with different numbers of rows. Now imagine that cell A1 is related to cell B3 and also to cell C5. There are numerous different combinations similar to this. Is there a way to show this relationship between cells in excel. If so, how?
1. I have one sheet with all the information about my customers, such as customer name, address, mobile number and email. I have also added customer reference no...... this could act like a primary key in databases...... This is SHEET 1.
2. my other sheet, lets call it SHEET 2.... is basically a template of my quotation where at the top I need to enter the customer details such as customer name, address, mobile number and email.. Sometimes I have returning customers and I need to enter their details again and again.... it is time consuming.
Initially I would like to enter all my customers detail into SHEET 1.
When I have to create a quotation in SHEET 2, I would like to enter a customer reference number and it should bring all the data from SHEET 1 about that customer and place it into SHEET 2 (quotation template)...
I already transfer my data from database (excel.xlsm) to an old worksheet (excel.xlsx) with a table by using VBA. Now I want to make this old worksheet become a new file with new file name like yyyy/mm/dd/where. Is that possible?
I've been looking around to find a solution for my problem and as a last resort I have decided to make a post, and I will get straight to the point. I have 3 xl Files of relevance:
1 - is my "database" which consists of multiple sheets with different information in each. Each sheet is correlated with each other by one common ID. 2 - is my "template" which is 2 sheets, which functions as a report. The template serves as the Report which will be printed. The data from each row from the database can fill the spaces in the template.
3 - "the tool" xl file is where i have my macros and the mapping for the which columns from the database belong to which cells in the template.
Basically what I'm trying to get to work is: User opens Tool clicks "create Reports" and the tool should then open the database, pick the range of rows from the database put the data into the relevant cell in the template save the "template" with the info on it, close it and do it again with each row of data from the database. So if I pick rows 4 to 34 in my tool, it should create 30 xls files from the template and fill in the data from each row into each newly generated "report".
I have a template for information that needs uploaded into a database via CSV. This database is then access via a HTML front end. As part of this there is a 'folder structure' with in the front end. This is displayed in a database table (See attached excel file for example data structure)
Currently I have this feeding into a drop down list which is somewhat cumbersome so want to make it more efficient and easier to use. I had toyed with the idea of adding more columns into the excel template and split the string up to populate however this isnt exactly professional looking.
My current thinking is, is there a way of putting this data into a listbox which is easy to navigate? Ideally in a folder tree navigation structure, I know this is possible for a windows folder structure
I am trying to create a database that contains data taken from several work books that i have saved in one folder on my hard drive. These workbooks contain quite a lot ** data, but i only want to extract the data i want to instead ** having to extract it all? these works books are used by several other people as well, so i want it to be able to update as data changes.
I was thinking about using data links, but that only seems to extract all the data instead ** just what i want?
I am trying to create a shared database that tracks training for about 100 people. I've built a workable sheet, but the only way I have to share it over e-mail (there is no office NAS set up, and we're on a military base so we can't establish wifi).
Is there a way to set up a workbook that can be updated on one computer and instantly reflect that information in the cloud?
My goal is to have each team responsible for updating their own form and then have that information update my master tracker.
Its really hard to explain. See the attached.. Basically I have kind of a database of Letters and each letter has several codes associated with it, although each letter is different (a few are the same but that's irrelevant), e.g. letter E means you need to use codes 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 3.9, and 3.10. That information is stored elsewhere. I simply want a user to be able to put that letter into this box and next to it these codes will populate.
I have an assignment for work where I am required to create a button within an excel sheet that will submit any text in a cell which in this case would be "A9" to a database to a certain field. I must create this using visual basic.
I am currently pulling information from a database into Excel. In column A is a list of dates that vary depending on how many days I decide to pull. On any given day there are options to which car will be driven and it is random and there are attributes associated with that drive such as below. If the car was not driven the data pull inputs "No Data" or a "0". On any given day up to three cars can be driven but it is still possible that only one will be driven. This is shown in the second table below. I'd like to be able to create an automated summary table such as the first table below. The summary table should be organized by date and show what cars were driven and their attributes. I know this seems simple but in reality I have six different cars and up to 10 attributes for each car and will be pulling months at a time. The only thought I have had is to do a for loop that checks every individual cell but I am not sure how to implement that.
I need to have a end user form that pulls information from a database and simplifies work for our substitue coordinator. Please be advised I have been working on this and can not get the desired results. I need a form that displays the current date and 5 columns of data the Data needs to be in seperate cells for example cell A1 titled TEACHERS and then the sub coordinator could start typing the name of the teacher in a2 and a predefined database of teachers name, class they teach, etc. MATH, ENGLISH and planning period would be pooled and automaticly fill the cell.
I also would need a second cell say cell B to be call Substitutes and b2- b100 to pull data from a database of substitute names and display their information.
In column A of a database I've calculated workdays for all year (excluding weekends and public holidays).
Every day, I update the numerical data of the database, with the facts of previous day.
In another sheet I've made some monthly, quarterly etc., reports for that data.
What I want, is to have:
1) a report every day, with the sum of specific data (say that in column D), for a period starting the first workday of current month and ending the previous workday of today.
I want to accomplish something like this but slightly different:
[url]
I have the same issue but a bit more complex. In my case I have an additional amount of columns (let's say dimensions). So for the example given (sales per month) I would add two columns for 4 different regions and 5 machine types (just examples).
The output (that would serve as pivot tabel input) would then have to be a 4 x 5 x 12 x 4 = 960 row database table.
I have tried to accomplish it by customizing the given code but that provedto be beyond my powers ;o)
and some 3rd party software [url]and [url] but non of them is doing what I'm looking for.
The code I'm looking for ideally would count the number of columns and unique records per column and construct the database table from that. So I am looking for flexibility in the number of dimensions also...
I am currently trying to create a database of products for my company. For each product I would like to include an image associated with it. I then want to have on another sheet a place where the user will click an error and be able to cycle through the products. As tehy cycle the associated image will pop up.
What I need to understand is after importing the image into excel, how do I associate that image to a cell so I can reference it in another sheet of the database. I am not concerned with how large the database will get, my pictures are quite small.
I'm trying to lookup a database named database and return a time in column A, based on criteria in cells a1 and b1 on another sheet, A1 would contain a number and B1 would contain a day from mon-fri
eg of Database A B C D E F G 10:00 5000 Mon Tues
11:00 5000 Wed Thur Fri
and so on
if a1= 5000 & b1=Wed how can I return 11:00
I have tried index and match =index(a:a,match(a1&b1,b:b&e:e,0))
I've used a countifs, but I'm having trouble doing a sum in a similar way. I have 2 databases and I will try to explain below. I need the to sum the values of database 1 if the second database is >= 20. So the value I would expect on this example would be 900. I would also like to be able to highlight which ones are elliminated. Such as coloring the text red.
I need to create a macro that can create a dynamic copy/paste loop. So far what I have is horribly inefficient. Each row in colmn A(minus the header) has a unique number in it. For each unique number, I need to paste it based on the number of column headers in row 1(minus column A). So, if there are 20 column headers, I need to copy cell A2 and paste it 19 times in another sheet. Then, I need to move to the next number in column A and do the same thing. Here's what I have:
[Code] .........
You can see that this is not dynamic. If I add another row to my table and rerun the macro, it will not catch it. I've attached a sample file to show you the big picture of what I'm trying to do. The data that I have is in Sheet1, and I'm trying to get it into the format in Sheet3. Rows/columns will be periodically added to the table in Sheet1, so the macro needs to be dynamic to catch that. The data in Sheet3 will always remain, and the macro will add the updated data below the old data in Sheet3.
Trying to create an excel chart to create totals based upon different keys. I need to be able to calculate how many customers there are by Manager and then By Rep. Then to figure out how many were New, Current, Total # of RSVP and attended for that Rep. Below is how I have started but I am having some problems getting certain parts. I know when I get one the rest will fall into place. I can calculate how many total customers by manager and by rep just by doing a Countif command but how do I determine the # of New, Current etc. Is there a If Than command? Managers Totals are simply his reps totals.
Example.. A B C D E F G 1 Manager Rep Customer New Biz Current # RSVP # Actual Attend
Need totals to look something like this....
A B C D E F G 1 # of Cust # New # Current #RSVP # Actual Attend 2 Manager 3 Rep 1 4 Rep 2
I've been browsing through postings for a while now trying to figure out a solution to my excel formula problem. While there is a lot of useful info, I have not found anything that will get me where I need to be. I am hoping that someone here will be able to me out. My project is this.
-A workbook with about 20 sheets.
-Sheet one will be a master list of serial numbers with blank fields for dates, account numbers etc.
-Sheets 2-20 will be used to assign those serial numbers to individuals.
-On each individual's sheet there are fields for dates, account numbers etc. next to the serial number.
-I need the master sheet to look through the individual sheets and insert the date, account numbers etc. into the master sheet.
I can get the IF function to work with one sheet but cant figure out how to do this across multiple.
I want to set up a database which contains customer comments and phone numbers, what I want to do is every 30 days or so, have the cells highlighted so that they remind me to call them.
uses CSV files for importing product data, problem is both have it formatted differently. What i ideally need is a master file that i can change whenever a price needs changing or product adding, this feeds down into 2 csv files that are formatted for the relevent softwares and then i can use a macro to upload these automaticly at end of day. ive tried using just excel but had no luck, i tried using access and custom reports but keeping getting errors as page size is 35 fields long and doesnt want to export as a csv,
Using an existing database with nonfixed boundaries I am creating a new one with uniform boundaries. The simple spreadsheet I will use in this comment isn't what the database actually looks like but represents what I am trying to achieve.
Here I have the old data, organised into sections that have the same assigned number. (Note: the assigned number may be the same as the previous cell). I wish to change it into this structure:
StartFinish# 020 2040 4060 6080 80100
It will be organised by the start and finish instead of by the assigned number. Instead I would like the number to reflect the lowest assigned number that occupies a part of that area.Is it possible to create a forumla which would achieve this?
