I suffered a very annoying HDD failure and lost loads of music. The only record I have is the winamp media library which I could only export to .xml. From there, I've been unable to do anything remotely useful with it (access would have been best, I suppose) so have resorted to trusty Excel. Even then I've underestimated the task at hand: I've now got 9 excel files, each 65536 rows long, with the xml data streaming down them. Can anyone think how I could get a macro to
1. run through the list(s), line by line, deleting any line that had (e.g.)
Track ID OR Genre OR etc...
In order to remove all but the 5 categories I have in bold below, i.e. name, artist, album, date, folder....
I have enable Refresh on Open for my excel pivot table, but user need to click "Enable Automatic Refresh" , only solution i came across is to change the registry setting. Which i dont have access to edit registry(admin disable the access).
Alternate solution i try to use Access macro to automate the process and use Outputto save it as a excel file A. Then use excel file B to update pivot table from excel file A.(as excel A data is always latest) The problem is i will get "....A file name already exist...do you want to overwrite.." prompt. Which defeat the automate process.
Any other solution to enable the automatic refresh on open the excel workbook?
Or Access can overwrite the exist file or save it as another file name with timestamp ?
i'm creating a small database extractor in excel. basically it goe's into my Access DB's rips the tabel names and the field name etc. from here i run an SQL query etc etc, however some table have space in the names and i need to replace these with an underscore in access permanently? here's what i have tried so far:
Is it possible to import the last row an Access table into Excel either through VBA or an excel function.
I need it to be only the last row, due to the size of the database, I have tried importing using a query but this takes a long time as it checks each row first.
Is there a way to find the last row automatically a bit like this in excel.
I have a script that exports an excel worksheet into an access db table and thsi is working fine. However i want to define a specific worksheet where the data is being exported from within the code but im having trouble doing, its using just a range at present.
I have created a userform in excel which I want to transfer data over to access with.
I have built a command button to send data to access code below.
Private Sub CommandButton2_Click() Dim cn As ADODB.Connection, rs As ADODB.Recordset Set cn = New ADODB.Connection cn.Open "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & _ "Data Source=filepath.mdb" Set rs = New ADODB.Recordset rs.Open "Main", cn, adOpenKeyset, adLockOptimistic
rs.Close Set rs = Nothing cn.Close Set cn = Nothing
This works fine when all comboboxes and textboxes have entries in but doesn't work when the have been left blank and there will be occasions when they can be left blank.
I'm using the below code to add data to an access database and it's working fine, but I'm trying to figure out what code I would need to add a completely new field to the access database?
So maybe before the export, once connected to the DB, add the new field(s) to the table and then add export the data. I'd have to rewrite export bit to allow for any new fields that i've added, but I can do that.
It's just the actually command I need add the new field to the table. Sure it's just a simple couple of lines, but trying to find something that makes sense !!
I am not able to retrieve the date from Access table.Here is below code.. How to retrieve the data from ACCESS..
Dim adoCN As ADODB.Connection Dim strSQL As String Const DatabasePath As String = "U:workareaNew Projectdb1.mdb" 'Function argument descriptions 'LookupFieldName - the field you wish to search
I have a table i'm importing from access. I'm wondering if there's a way to split the table so that it imports into separate locations. The following shows what I'm trying to do.
This is the data table. You'll note that under FlatOrTrim, I have 2 choices.
I'd like the ones in flat to populate one portion of the worksheet, and the ones in Trim to populate a different part of the worksheet. Like so: (Not all the data matches up perfectly, ignore that)...
I have a RecordSet that has been built and accessed sequentially with no problems. I now want to access it directly, via it's Primary Key.
I know I can access it as follows :
With MyTable .MoveFirst Do Until .EOF If ![PrimaryKey] = Work_Key Then MyData = ![Data_To_Extract] Exit Do End If .MoveNext Loop End With As a MainFrame Programmer, I would expect to be able to access that record directly, via it's Primary Key, something like :
Read MyTable Key = Work_Key MyData = ![Data_To_Extract] Am I thinking too much like a Mainframe Programmer (that *is* my trade, it's difficult to adjust sometimes !)? Is the With - Do/Loop method the way to go, or is there a Direct Read method I should be using?
now if i wanted to be able to look up jason then have it populate which Dept he worked in, in cell A1 in my excel spread sheet what code could I use. Just want to look up one area in my access data table then show it in A1 one item at a time.
I've trailed through the search engine on here and I can't find an answer to this: Can you access lookup tables in Excel from VBA code? I assume you can, but can't seem to find anything on this
When I run the code, the active workbook is the "sFileName" file. There are a couple of problems that I can't seem to get around. First of all, when I run the code, I get a Method 'Open' of object 'Workbooks' failed error. If I debug, it is on the Workbooks.Open statement shown above. If I do nothing but hit F8, the file opens. The second issue is nothing prints. The file is available to me and I can access things on the sheet, but it will not print. By the way, the CLOSE command works perfectly. Is there a different way that I should be accomplishing the printing?
I need to populate data from Access table to sheet1 using Excel/vba. I want to find out the percentage of batches scanned for the date selected for each time slot. There are Time slots in the columns from Q to X. i.e 8:00,9:00,10:00,11:00.....etc.
so I need to find out percentage of batches scanned before the above time slots.. To count total number of batches , we will use count(BatchNo) function in the SQL query. Because of company restrictions, I can't attach the access database but to give u an idea how the database is stored, I copied the data in sheet2 of the attached workbook. We have to find percentage of batches scanned in sheet1.
I have to import data into Excel from Access (yes, I have to import it to Excel and cannot use Access exclusively). When I import; however, the formatting does not come over correctly, most especially losing the formatting of numbers. I need one of two solutions:
1.) How to get the formatting to move over correctly?
2.) Or how I can save the formatting of a table, then be able to apply it as a "saved" format? The biggest thing is that the numbers will changed the number of decimal places and/or change from general numbers when I want to see them as currency.
The top table shows how i want this formatted, the bottom shows how it is importing.
I put together a little table for one of my LAN based facilities to track their Overtime Savings as compared to each of their individual units. It works great.
What I would like to do is to export the data on a weekly basis to Access. I set up an access table to recieve the data and I can get it all to work just fine except I want the users to just click on a menu item and have the export take place in the background.
I know how to create on the fly menus and get them to accecpt commands from Excel Macros so that is not an issue.
I know how to share data in Excel from Workbook to workbook, closed or open. I'm sure it can be done Excel to Access I just can not for the life of me find anything to jumpstart me in the right direction in either application's help files. Anybody out there linking their Excel data to Access?
The code below (ran from Excel vba) deletes all data from an Access table, paste data from Excel into another table, and then run two Access Macro's and paste data from yet another table back into Excel.
My problem is that when I run the query from Excel, the data returned to Excel is always zero. When I step through the code, and check the Access database, all the steps are carried out properly. E.g, the delete query is deleting all the records in the correct table, the append query is copying the correct data into the correct table in Access. The two macros do run, but then when the resulting table is returned to Excel, it brings back zero's.
Doing all this manually in Access is returning the data correctly.
The two Access macros are running some queries, E.g. the "001 UpdateLatestData" is running two queries and the "002 CreateMonthlyResults" is running about 15 separte queries.
Sub OPENACCESSTABLE_DELETE_ROWS1() Dim db As Object Dim accApp As Object
Set oApp = CreateObject("Access.Application") oApp.Visible = True oApp.OpenCurrentDatabase DBPath 'Delete Query DoCmd.RunSQL "DELETE [001 non motor data].* FROM [001 non motor data]"
Set accApp = GetObject(Access_DB) .........................
I have an excel spreadsheet in which I must sort the data by program and then activity code. From that I need to know the number of consumers by activity code and their total units. I must then graph this by program. I have been debating on whether to use an excel pivot table, break the data in to multiple spreasheets to then graph it or shoud I upload the file into access.
The database I'm working with uses a lot of back end code to take Access tables and format and output them to Excel Files. After the table (FinalLoadCharttoExcel) has been created through the append query AppndFinalLCToExcel, I need to sort the table by the following fields: "Terminal Number," "State," "3 Digit Zip" and "Begin Zip" all in ascending order. I need to do this within the VB code. I wish I knew a way to get a screenshot of the table, but this is what it looks like unsorted:
Terminal Number State 3 Digit Zip Begin Zip 371 MA 011 78 371 MA 011 00 303 LA 701 06 303 FL 328 31 381 MO 716 04
After all the programs run, I need the table to look like
Terminal Number State 3 Digit Zip Begin Zip 303 FL 328 31 303 LA 701 04 371 MA 011 00 371 MA 011 78 381 MO 716 04
I wanted to make a macro that saved my worksheet, then printed all the different tabs. The save is, of course, easy. Printing all tabs is being more difficult.
I tried to use the macro recorder, but all it did was select range, and then name each tab. My tab names change though, so I need something that will just select all tabs.
this returns a "sub or function not defined" on the printout line
Sub print_All_recaps() Set ws = Worksheets("Employees") If UCase(InputBox("Enter y to print ALL the records")) <> "Y" Then Exit Sub For n = 2 To ws. Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Row Cells(2, 2) = ws.Cells(n, 1) PrintOut Copies:=1 Next End Sub
If I remove the PrintOut line I do not get an error.
I want to write down the code that will populate values in "Sheet1" from the Access table. The column headers shows "Envelope types", "Envelope Size" fields from the Access table and each cell should store sum(volume) for each month in the table.
As I can't upload access table in the attachment so I have exported data into Workbook named "tblmain" as attached. But in actual tblmain is Access table. consider it an access table.
wrting code that will fetch data from access table and store in all the cells of the table in "Sheet1" of Elevate workbook.
I have a spreadsheet and an Access database that contain the same items and prices. The database and spreadsheet are on a server shared drive. I would like the spreadsheet to automatically update its list of items and prices from the Access database whenever the spreadsheet is opened. Right now, we update the item and price list on both the spreadsheet and the database but I want to just update the database and have the spreadsheet pull the updates from the database.
i have a excel file which has a formatted pivot table which displays customers by country in row A 2 down to 36 with approx 36 customers in the values field i have volumes by alarms and tickets along the column labels it shows the previous 7 days with date and then the alarms and tickets in each row. My problem is i am trying to find the code or location where i can change the only bring back 7 days data to another value. i have searched all connection properties and definitions. I know there is a value somewhere that allows you to change this number to say from 7 days to 30 days. If you click on the column labels for date it shows the dates back 3+ years but it still if i tick more than 7 days only show 7 in the table.I have image if needed
I am looking at a way to create a dsitributable excel spreadsheet (.xlsx), which contains non-sensitive, yet restrictied organisational information segmented by regional department for NCSA, EMEA for APAC respectively.
By design, all data has been collected in a datatable on a password protected "data" sheet - and - presented on an "executive summary" sheet. T
The "executive summary" sheet contains a privottable with select "multiple options" to allow for aggregated dataviews on executive level. However, on a regional department level, the users must only see their own regions, hence the filtering mechanims on the pivottable should be restricted.
Currently, the restrictions on the pivot tables are made in VBA, using the following script. However, it still allows people to change the "multiple options" filter in the pivot. How can I restrcit this option
Sub RestrictPivotTable() Dim pf As PivotField With ActiveSheet.PivotTables(1) .EnableWizard = False .EnableDrilldown = True .EnableFieldList = True .EnableFieldDialog = False .PivotCache.EnableRefresh = False For Each pf In .PageFields
[code].....
As a sidenote; the above design requires that a spreadsheet is compiled for each region each month. Ideally, the ability of filtering, could be password restricted - or - filteren. So only one selection would be presented for the NCSA, EMEA and APAC respectively, while Executives could view across one-or-many regions? However, as Pivot tables are used by design, I cannot see how this could efficiently be achieved?
