Importing More Than 65000 Records Into One Worksheet
Feb 28, 2007
It is so nice to check-in once in a while to see all these new ideas and solutions of people's problems. So, I would like to ask a question that really bothered me for some time, and it looks like I cannot find a full answer to it. So here it goes:
How can I import data which is either more than 65000 records long or it will sum up to be more than 65000 when imported? I need all my data to be on one worksheet, and I don't care if these data will be imported let's say in columns A B C, then once it reaches the 65K, it will be imported to the neighbouring columns D E F, etc.?
I searched the Ozgrid for an answer and I found a thread
I have a table with a number of columns, all of them number format, first one is a unique ID tying all my tables together.
The table contains a running tally of credits for each member and I need import reports every now and then adding on to the tally.
How do I set this up so that I can have Access read an Excel file with data to be added to the existing (not replacing, adding up) and a new record created if it doesn't already exist?
I've tried the append external data, but that fails as the ID field already exist most of the time, even when I created a blank copy of the table I get error messages even if it then actually imports (first time).
Do I need to format the Excel sheet in any particular way to match the tables number format? Is there additional steps I need to take? Would this work even if the import sheet included the same user several times (each occurrence to be added on).
I really don't want to have to step through every user and manually add up and update each credit.
I am trying to import from Excel Worksheet 1 into Excel Worksheet 2 in a user-friendly manner. I've created a form in Excel Worksheet 2 that allows the user to browse for a file and select it.
All I want to do is copy columns A through I from Worksheet 1 into Worksheet 2. How can I do this very smoothly without needing to open up Worksheet 1?
I am using Microsoft Excel 2003 and I am trying to import data from one worksheet to another. I found out how to import the data, but I can not find out how to get the data that I am importing to go into the labelled cells that I want them to go into. Is there any way that I can get Excel to do this, or am I searching for something that can't even happen?
The Excel 2007 help menu claims that you can open a CSV file directly into a worksheet but I always get all the fields clumped-up into the first column.
After many tribulations I was able to import it through the Data import menu (text).
Could someone explain what I am doing wrong with the first method described above. It appears that the CSV converter is not working properly on my computer.
I used to know my way around Excel pretty well back in college, but I'm drawing a blank here several years later. I know there's a way to do this, but can't remember how.
In the attached sheet, I have info on Sheet 1. Sheet 2 only displays the info with LABEL=2. How can I make this sheet 2 automatically do this and update based on changes to Sheet1?
How do I create a code to open a msgbox to select a number rows of records from 1-500 possible range to import from worksheet "Az3E" in Record4, to worksheet "AZ3E" in "Record2". Only import column A and E, to column A and E of the target worksheet starting with row 20. Do not import header row. In Column E import results as values only.
Title "Selection" Inputbox "Select range in Column A and E to be Imported" "Range/#of rows to import"
I want to import a CSV file into a worksheet. one of the things i need to do for the import is seperate the data if its a different currency.BUT copy the format from a sheet called "MASTER" which will be hidden. some of the variables are as follows, there will be more
0 = GBP (£) ¢ = USD (U.S Dollar) E = Euro S = CHF (swiss Franc) A = AUD
I have a template i'm making that is full of formula references to sheets not yet in existance in the workbook. what i want to happen is this: My code imports data files, renames the tabs to 1, 2, 3, 4... The formulas i already have are set in the CONCATENATED tab.... an example of such a formula is: ='1'!$P2.
so this should work, and yet it doesn't. the sheet is imported as it should be, the tab is renamed to 1, and yet the CONCATENATED sheet still shows #REF for the cell value. if i click in the cell, click in the text bar and enter out, the formula updates. there apparently is no option that i KNOW OF (although i'm sure there is something out there that does...) that will update this without me entering into the text bar and entering out.
Question: how do i manually update all references once the sheets to those references have been imported?
I have a folder with 8 files which have different names like John-s, Joe-K, Mary-j,....
There are 14 sheets in each file. One of the sheets in the files named Daily contain information in Range A5:G16 that I need to import from all 8 files into a separate file called Import.
I have a worksheet with a header row.the data is from B2:B25.I have to accomplish two things.
i)I want to get only 8 records (viz record nos-5,6,11,12,17,18,23,24)from the entire worksheet.serial numbers are shown only for illustration purpose.i want to eliminate all other records from the worksheet.then i will get the records from seriel numbers 1-8 as shown in E2:E9.
(2)I want the content of row3 to come up in C2 and then row3 should be deleted. now the content of row4 should come up to C3 and then row4 should be deleted.it should continue.the result will be 4 records as shown in G2:H5
I need to do sorting and filtering the similar records to new worksheet. I need you help to do this job, give some idea or command to use for the following steps.
I have attached the worksheet newtran.xls.
1. I need to find the last column, the column will be increased or decreases. so that we need to find the last column at time of running the macro. Now the value is there till column DD
2. I need to concatenate the column B, D, F to last column find out at 1 step. Insert a new column and place the concatenated value.
3. Entire row will be Sorted based on concatenated value column.
4. Find the similar row on concatenated column and entire row need to be moved to new worksheet.
I've found a great userform on this site that allows you to populate a datasheet as well as delete or amend datasheets. It was by dodger7 within Database. Very useful. I've adapted this to my needs and it works great apart from i cant amend the userform that shows data when you select delete or amend. I've had a go but don't understand how i can create my own feilds and set it up in order. When i go in to the code i can veiw the delete and create/amend userforms but this is a search function relating to a reference number. Once you select Find it brings up another form and that is the one which i need to adapt to show my new feilds. I have attached the sheet so you can see my problem. I was wondering if anyone can advise as i love this userform/database method but can't complete the changes to my needs.
I have a product Database with 11 columns. I am trying to build a Search/look-up userform.
I found a brialliant example of the same posted by Roy, UK. I have copied the same and its working well, but with a few little problems.
Here's what I've got:
I have a userform with a Combobox (called Combobox2) where it shows all the products from column B in the worksheet "ProductData". In the worksheet "ProductData" , I have 11 Columns with headings from B1:L1.
When user selects a product from the dropdown list (from Combobox2), all the details related to that product from other columns are displayed on the userform via labels.
This part is working fine....except that the values in Combobox2 are taken from activesheet and I want them to come from worksheet "ProductData". I have hidden the sheet "ProductData".
Second Part is, I have about 20 products in the Database and all of them have a Product Specification Sheet in PDF format. I am just wondering, if there is any way I can have a button on the userform that can used to open this PDF datasheet for the product thats being lookeed up by user.
What I mean is, if user selects productA from the combobox2, then it displays all the info about the the ProductA on the labels on the usewrform. and if user clicks on the "View Data Sheet" button then it opens the Datasheet PDF file for ProductA.
Below is my code for the first part:
Option Explicit
Private Sub ComboBox2_Change() Dim ws As Worksheet Set ws = Worksheets("ProductData") Dim Ncell As Range With Range("B2", Range("b65536").End(xlUp)) Set Ncell = .Find(ComboBox2.Value, LookIn:=xlValues)
Code: Sub Button1_Click() Dim cnt As ADODB.Connection Dim rst As ADODB.Recordset Dim stSQL As String Dim SNfound As String 'Your sqlserver 2008 connection string Const stADO As String = "Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;" & _ "" & _
[code].....
but i dont see where to put in the Database object...
The Database it needs to connect to in SQl is called
The Server name is SQLSRV when you expand databases the database is called SWHSystem the Table is called dbo.Credential and from that i need to get SELECT All from the Name and CardNumber from dbo.Credential and put that in a New Sheet titled Personal
I have a set of related variables that are split over multiple worksheets, and I need to be able to take specific information, duplicate certain values and produce an output sheet for use in a separate piece of software.
The variables are: Position Number (Sheet 1) Position Title (Sheets 1 and 2) Position Requirement (Sheet 2) Requirement Importance (Sheet 2)
The output sheet requires a list of all the requirements for each position number, which means the position number itself needs duplicating (in new rows) X number of times, where X is the number of requirements assigned. The appropriate requirements are then to be pasted in next to each position number (and the requirements can be found by comparing position number to title, and from title to requirements).
Normally, I’d be able to do this using lookups and so forth, but my problem arises when I have multiple position numbers with the same related title (in the attached example, there are three plumbers with unique position numbers). I can’t figure out how to say to Excel “a plumber has five requirements, and there are three plumbers, so duplicate each position number for each plumber five times, then insert the appropriate qualifications (and their associated importance values) next to the position numbers”.
I have a range of columns i.e. 23 columns (i.e. B through X). Someone can write records in these columns (starting from B21).
Duplicates are considered the rows with similar data in columns 3 and 11. I know about the removeduplicate method and works really well but i want the duplicates not to be removed. Instead another column shall be checked for date of entry (user will entry date in format dd/mm/yyyy). The newest entry will change the value of the cell in column 4 (islatest column)to TRUE while all other records will be FALSE. This will work with the filtering of data on a pivot table on another worksheet.
Book1 and Book2 are workbooks that I have modified in order to protect private information.
Book1 will have 11,000 records (my example Book1 has only 100). I need to rearrange Book1 such that it looks like Book2. Book2 has 20 complete records from Book1 combined into one single row, and my example Book2 has populated 3 rows only (3 rows x 20 records, making 60 records now appear on 3 rows only).
Macro for getting Book1 to Book2? 11,000 records in Book1 will take a lot of hours to transform into Book2 unless a macro can do the job for me.
I'm using the following code to import thousands of html files into my spreadsheet. The code is working fine. Since I am importing thousands of files, when there is no more space on my worksheet, the code stops with an error message. I want to make this code add another worksheet & continue importing the html files until there are no more files to import.
Sub Master_Importer() Dim I As Long Dim strFilename As String Dim strPath As String strPath = "file:///C:/Documents and Settings/c/Desktop/New Folder/" With Application.FileSearch .LookIn = "C:Documents and SettingscDesktopNew Folder" .FileType = msoFileTypeAllFiles .Execute For I = 1 To .FoundFiles.Count strFilename = Mid(.FoundFiles(I), InStrRev(.FoundFiles(I), "") + 1) With ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add(Connection:= _ "URL;" & strPath & strFilename _ .......................
example of a database user form that will allow me to list records in a sheet as well as search for records in a sheet. I know excel has a built in feature for this but it is menu driven and I need something that is button driven and will allow me to resize the form layout. I was not able to figure out how to do that with the built in form.
So my problem is that i have a table that is imported from sql and everyday i manually type in comments in a column that i made in excel next to the table that is imported. evreytime i refresh the data and get new data the comments are gone, how do i keep the comments with the row that i type it in?
I am importing data from a csv file into another program. For some reason this particular cell is causing everything past it in the same row to be thrown off. It is moving bits and pieces to the next column, then the next, etc....all in the same row though.
Can you see anything in this data that would cause issues in a csv file when importing. The data in this cell is html code for an ecommerce item description.
i have a script to import a workbook which works fine, but when the data is imported i would like to have all the data in the cells aligned to the left of the cells, as im new to vba i can work this out.
Below is the script i'm using to import.
I would like this to aligned all cells to the left and centered when imported.
Sub tst() With workbooks.open("C:example.xls") with .sheets(1).usedrange thisworkbook.sheets(1).cells(rows.count,1).end(xlup).offset(1).resize(.rows.count,columns.count)=.value end with .close False End with End Sub
How can I limit the number of lines when importing a file? Limit the import to the first 53 lines of a file that has 50,000+ lines.
Want to import the first "XX" set of lines, then I want to skip a set of lines, then continue to import the rest of the lines. The second import needs to be inserted 2 or 3 lines down from the first import.
There is the function:
Workbooks.OpenText Filename:=
But it only has a StartRow and can not specify the "EndRow". Also can not specify where to start in the worksheet, i.e. Cell A5
I have a Excel workbook (wb1) where the columns are showing the months and the rows are showing different actions/activities. If an action takes place in a specified month the cell corresponding to both the action and the month is marked yellow.
In another workbook (wb2) I want to be able to retrive data from wb1. What I want is that when wb2 is opened it should do a search in wb1 to find the first action/activity that takes place in the current month. The activity/action text should be imported to a textbox or cell in wb2.
I want to import data from the web into Excel, but the data I want come from the result of a query - I have to enter a few parameters and get the results. I would like to import these results into Excel but although I can enter the website for Excel to look at I cannot figure out how I can enter the parameters to generate the results.
I am having a little trouble with this piece of simple code that just seems to be not working the way i want to. I can't figure why it won't work.
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click() Sheets("Global").Select Range("B5:F19").Copy Range("B25").PasteSpecial (xlPasteAll) Range("B5:E5").ClearContents Range("B7:E7").ClearContents Range("B11:E11").ClearContents Range("B13:F13").ClearContents Range("B17:D17").ClearContents Range("B19:D19").ClearContents End Sub
for some reason if i try to do Range("B5:F19").Select and then do Selection.Copy, I get an application error message. This has never happened before and for some reason it just started to act up. If you want to know what it does when I run this macro.. it actually doesn't go to Sheet "Global" it stays in the same sheet and does all the copying/pasting/clearing in the same sheet as the button is. I made sure that the tab is "Global" and i have confirmed caps. spaces everything.
I have made a macro to import the a excel file into a new file after truncating few initial rows. Here is the code for it:
Sub Import() Dim Prompt1, Prompt2, Prompt3, myDir, myFile, mySheet As String Dim ClCnt As Long 'column counter Prompt1 = "Enter the location of input file:" myDir = InputBox(Prompt1) Prompt2 = "Enter filename:" myFile = InputBox(Prompt2) Prompt3 = "Enter sheetname:" mySheet = InputBox(Prompt3) With Workbooks.Open(myDir & myFile).Sheets(mySheet) ClCnt = .Range("A33:CB33").SpecialCells(xlConstants).Count ' Count the number of columns present..................
