I have a report that I import from an Oracle database.. My problem is "Sometimes" Column "L" is there and sometimes it isn't. It is a blank column that the system uses as some sort of place holder & I need to test if its there, then delete. See example below ...
View 20 RepliesI need to connect to an Oracle 10g database using vba. Google has loads of snipets of code but I don't seem to be able to get it to quite work correctly.
This is what I have:
Code:
Sub ADOExcelSQLServer()
Dim Cn As ADODB.Connection
Dim Server_Name As String
Dim Database_Name As String
Dim User_ID As String
Dim Password As String
Dim SQLStr As String

When the connection attempts to open (red code) I get the following error:
Run-time error '-2147467259 (80004005)':
[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed
My best guess is that I do not have the correct drivers installed... If this is the case which drivers do I need and where can you get them from?
I am currently querying data from an Oracle database through MS Access and then passing it to Excel for the user to work. Not all users have MS Access so I would like to automate the data pull from Excel

I am running Excel 2007 and connecting to an Oracle DB.
I have created a VBA macro to connect to an oracle DB and retrieve data then place it in a table. The code works, but it uses DSN entries which are specific to my computer. I want to be able to distribute this Excel spreadsheet to others in my company and have them be able to click one button and update the data. I figure the most logical way is to connect to the DB using an IP address that should work for anyone on the intranet.
How do I modify the connection info below to have it connect via IP?
I tried "Data Source = 10.1.1.10orcl" and "Data Source = 10.1.1.10", both of which VBA dislikes.

Set Servername = ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Summary").Range("B16")
Set StartDate = ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Summary").Range("B3")

I'm having some issues importing external data from an Oracle 9i database.
Here is what is happening:
I am initially able to import data from the table I want to into Excel.
I do this through "Data -> Import External Data -> New Database Query" where I have my .ORA data source. I'm able to log in using my user and password and import the table. My problems come after I import this first set of data.
If I try to "Edit Query…" I get an error box that says "[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed".
If I try to "Refresh Data" I get two error boxes. The first is just: "[Microsoft][ODBC driver for Oracle][Oracle]" and the next says: "[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed". It then prompts me for the User name and password of the DB I'm connecting and after I enter the information, I get the same two error messages.
Also, if I attempt to establish another connection following the "Data -> Import External Data…" steps I run into a different problem. Upon entering the information for the User Name and password prompt I get two error messages. One says "!" and the next box says "Couldn't read this file". Once I click "OK" in those boxes, the Microsoft Query window automatically opens with nothing in it.
I can't seem to figure out why I can initially pull down data and then cannot succeed afterwards. I'm unable to connect to the DB I have through Excel until I completely closed all Microsoft Excel instances.
I also use this data source in Microsoft Access without any problems.
I have a spreadsheet that tracks hours for employes and I need to get the data in a different layout to import to a database i'm building. The example spreadsheet has 2 tabs, the first is the format it's currently in and the second in the one I need it in.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've a xls file ready to upload to the my server through phpmyadmin and im using csv with load -date to upload it.
But my biggest problem here is how to input html tags in a excel cell, because when uploading it every word is combined without < p > or < br >.
There is on the internet an option to convert word text to html, and when i copy and paste from each cel to the online converter, I get then the < p > and < br > codes.
But I have a lot of cells in Excel.
In an Excel sheet i have set up a link to an Access database query (select query) using the Import External Data method. The data is store sales by week, arranged in a pivot table layout (stores as rows, weeks as columns). As time goes by, the database will be updated for new weeks sales, and i would like to refresh the data and the new weeks automatically appear in the Excel sheet, in subsequent columns.
At the moment, the only way i can seem to get this to work is to open up the link in MSQuery and manually select the new weeks from the Access query. i have set the parameters to overwrite cells with new data rather than insert new data. i'm sure there is a way to do this, as it feels like it would be a common thing to want, but i can't seem to find an answer anywhere!
I have a code which sends some keys to oracle and performs some actions. What I want is, I need to check a screen in Oracle and then continue or stop, based on the screen. So, I need a msgbox with a yes or no. Is it possible that a msgbox with yes/no be popped up on the screen or oracle? I understand that it can happen on excel screen.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm generating a report on an oracle based software which then I export to Excel. Unfortunately the dates come out very messy. I've included an .xls file with the dates. They are untouched. As you can see, some are left aligned some right aligned. Nevertheless, all dates are of the format dd/mm/yyyy with zeros (0) automatically omitted - this is how they're shown on the Oracle report, I've changed nothing.
I want all the dates on column B to have the same format as the date on cell D3. Of course, the format must remain dd/mm/yyyy.
Please feel free to ask me questions if any of this is confusing.
I Have a workbook which consists of 50 worksheets and i use Edit query window to pull the data from oracle on all these sheets. We run this once in a month. I have to go to every sheet and execute this code which is time consuming and i have to change the date value everytime. macro that can execute this process at once and we should give the date only once.I use OLEDB driver to connect to oracle.
Attached is the Command line code.
Select protocol, patient, Page, (date_indexed) Indexed,(first_entry_date) FirstPass,( second_entry_date) SecondPass,trim( modified_date) modified, trim(CRF_ERROR_COMMENT) Comments from JJA38377_96_crf where date_indexed>='1-May-11' and date_indexed
I am attempting to use MSQuery to extract records from an Oracle transaction table by passing user defined Date/Time field parameters.
So if the date range for the query is for Fiscal Period 10 of this year, my parameters would be:
[StartDate] = #2002/10/1#
[EndDate] = #2002/11/1#
Daily transaction activity is in the early morning hours ending at 6:00AM so my Criteria is:
Between [StartDate] + .25 and [EndDate] + .25
Note: The +.25 represents 1/4day = 6hrs (6:00AM)
If I use the hardcoded Start/End Dates, my query works fine, but if I try and
pass the dates as parameters I get "ORA-00932 inconsistent datatypes" error. And I can't seem to pass the Date/Time combination successfully....
If anyone has encountered a solution for how to pass a Date/Time Paremeter into MSQuery I would love to hear how you did it.
I'm starting to pull my few remaining hairs out!

One of my engaging tasks at work is to disable/enable general ledger accounts (accounting speak) in our Oracle ERP application using one of their forms.
In this case it would be a list of gl accounts and to the left of the gl account would be a check box that I can click.
Checked means enabled.
Blank would mean disabled.
If I have a list of currently enabled gl accounts that are to be disabled (unchecked) then I have to do so one by one. I can click with the mouse on the checkbox or I can using the keyboard use the space bar followed by the down arrow key and repeat. As fun as that sounds sometimes I'm faced with dozens or hundreds at a time.
Therefore my question is can I automate this using VBA? or any other tools out there.
Using Excel Office 2007, Oracle ERP (9.5.8) I think - it's old
I currently have an Excel file with the ODBC connection and using my own SQL. Doing it this way would require the super user to go into each sheet then to the SQL each time to change the dates. I know there is a way to allow them to simply change the dates in cells H1 (or H1 and H2) then refresh data and whoolaa it would be updated.
My goal if possible via this board and all the knowledge available would be to have a spreadsheet allowing a super user to change the date in Cells H1 and H1 & H2 on sheet Tst1 and have the data returned to sheets (Tst2, Tst3) based on my own SQL statements.
Here are some parameters that I think you might need to know.
(And as you may guess I do not have much VBA experience so if at all possible use my naming convention shown below. and feel free to write for a first grader.)
User Name (not actual): "UID"
Server (not actual): "DEV"
Password (not actual): "PWD"
File Name: Excel_ODBC.xls
Sheet Name: "Tst2"
"Tst3"
Output Cell: "A1" for both sheets.

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

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'm attempting to import around 200 (and growing!) separate text files into Excel. I am using the formula below to import the text file and then using a separate macro to select the information I need, copy it into another spreadsheet, and then run the import macro again.
However, I have a problem in that my import macro gives me 'Run-time error '1004:
Application defined or user defined error''. At first this wasn't a problem as the information is pasted into the spreadsheet despite the error anyway. However, now that I am looping the macro it is obviously causing more problems as it prevents the loop. I would really appreciate it if anyone knows of a work-around or can spot an error in the coding to resolve this!
The code below shows is for the import macro only:
Sub ImportTextFile(FName As String, Sep As String)
Dim RowNdx As Long
Dim ColNdx As Integer
Dim TempVal As Variant
Dim WholeLine As String
Dim Pos As Integer
Dim NextPos As Integer
Dim SaveColNdx As Integer
I have a simple macro importing a .csv data file to a worksheet every 30 minutes.
When the macro runs an Import Text File dialog box displays.
What do I need to do to have the macro run to completion without the dialog box interruption?
Sub RefreshHourlyData()
htime = Now + TimeValue("00:30:00")
Application .OnTime htime, "RefreshHourlyData"

Range("A1:A1").Select
End Sub

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.

Using an existing database with nonfixed boundaries I am creating a new one with uniform boundaries.

60804
80953
951002
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

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?
I have spreadsheets supplied by clubs to add data to a database. I am not a spreadsheet user,
Today I have a spreadsheet with the columns A to M repeated in the width of the spreadsheet.
How do I reduce that to one display?
From the data on my database I want a button to export certain columns (B,C,D):
1. that on the (column J) have number smaller than (cell A1)
2. and create PDF's based on a column that has 3 options (AA, BB, CC)
So all the data from database that make 1. true to be exported on 3 PDFs where the first PDF has all the AA data the second all the BB data etc..
Is this possible?
I have a big database that has different name in column A(something like Y1, Y2, Y3, Y4, Y5, Y6, Y7, Y8...). What i'm trying to do is to group them! In group A i have Y1,Y7, in group B i have Y2,Y3, in group C i have Y4, Y6 and etc! I think the solution is something like index...but i never worked with that in VBA! So each name of group A should copy on a new sheet, the next rows should come group B and etc! Is there a way to do that in VBA?
