Importing External Data To A1

Oct 13, 2009

I have 5 or 6 macros set up to import stats from the internet to specific sheets. I want all of my imported data to be pasted starting at A1. However when i run these macros, the data IS pasted at A1, but when i run it a second time (or the next day after the pages have been updated), it pastes the data BESIDE the previously pasted stuff. here's what i mean..

say my imported data spans columns A to S.. everything's fine. but tomorrow i want to update the data so i run the macro again. well, it pastes the new data to A1 and again it spans from A to S like it's supposed to, but now it also tacks on the same paste job from S to, AG for instance.here's the code... There are currently 5 macros that have this problem. I thought by selecting A1 as the starting point, i could alleviate all of this but apparently not.

Importing Data From External File

Apr 13, 2009

I have bit of code that opens an external excel file (call it the source workbook), grabs certain data, copies the data to other excel file (call it the destination workbook), and then closes. I have most of the code completed but am running into an issue with how to grab certain data from the source workbook and copying it to destination workbook.

I want the code to read the data in the source workbook line-by-line.

For each line that is read, I want to copy part of that data (value in column A and column B) to column A and column B of destination workbook only if the value in column D is equal to “Block”. For column C and column D, I want to do some form of lookup, being I want the code to look at each line of data until it finds corresponding line in which column A = “60612105” and in which column B = the value in B. Once this line is found, copy the value in C to column C of destination workbook and value in D to column D of destination workbook.

I have attached two files. First file is the import file (destination workbook) which has two tabs; (1) import tab (2) desired result. Second file is the raw data file (source workbook). Hopefully this makes since.

Importing External Data Locks Source Workbook

Nov 23, 2011

I am importing external data to "Workbook A" from the source workbook, "Workbook B." Workbook A is set up to refresh every 15 minutes. Workbook B is shared. I am recieving an error saying either, the 'file is in use', or 'the file is locked,' depending on the senario.

Scenario 1:
1. I open A and enable data connections.
2. I try to open B, but receive the message: '(File location...) is in use. Try again later.

Scenario 2:
1. I open B.
2. I open A.
3. I go back to B to edit information.
4. When I try saving the information I get the following message: 'File is locked. Try the command again later.'

I need to be able to have A open and periodically refreshing. I also need to allow users unhindered access to B at the same time.

ODBC :: Importing External Data From An Oracle 9i Database

Mar 18, 2008

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.

External Web Data Query Fails To Insert Table Data?

Jul 9, 2014

An external data web query points to a web site that offers a foreign exchange rate calculator. In my browser, I selected the specific currency pair I need and used the resulting url in the web query. The "New Web Query" pane resolves the url correctly and allows me to select the table data I want (the little yellow arrow turns to a green check mark). However, when I hit "Import" and select the target cell, the only data returned is the parameters from the url and an error msg (This web query returned no data...). How do I get the query to pass the parameters to the website correctly?

External Data From The Web

Jul 8, 2014

I'm trying to make a spreadsheet that references data tables I have pulled from the internet, with the hopes that these tables will update as I refresh the data connections. I'm in the early stages of creating this spreadsheet right now, but whenever I try to refresh my data connections, it takes a tremendous amount of time. I have about 6 connections with 100 row lines total. Is this typical with data connections to the web? Is there a better way to do this?

How To Get External Data From...itself

Dec 3, 2008

I have some data in tabular form on a sheet. I want to represent this data on a different sheet, but have it be dynamically updated. I'm thinking that the smartest way would be to give the original data a named range, then do some sort of external data referencing to the source from Data - Import External Data. But this sounds kind of silly.

How do I do this? And no, I don't want to use pivot tables because I don't have statistics to populate in the cells...I just want to display the data as is.

Importing Data

Jun 1, 2007

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.

Use Access Data Without Importing It?

Aug 25, 2010

can use data from an Access table in my Excel functions without importing the Access data into the wookbook.

I set up a connection to the Access table that I need, but don't know what the syntax would be to reference those fields in functions in my Excel sheet (or if it's even possible).

My problem is that the Access table is large and I want to keep the size of the Excel workbook small.

Import External Data

Dec 26, 2007

I'm trying to pull in data from another Excel workbook which gets updated on a regular basis. Using the Import External Data fucntion in Excel I created a query which pulls the data from the original workbook into a tab in the workbook I'm using. The issue I'm having is that not all of the column headers get pulled in when using the Import External Data function. I tried typing the column headers in myself but they disappear again after refreshing the data set. Any ideas what is causing the issue?

External Data Queries

Apr 1, 2008

I use external data queries in excel. That's how I look up data in my access databases because I have so many access and SQL databases it's just eiser to be able to do quick queries on multiple databases at the same time in one spreadsheet. And, I can save the external data query as a tool to use in future queries. I have tons of tools and external data query is the foundation of most of them.

What bugs me is EDITING data.

If I want to do some light simple editing in an SQL database I am required to use a linked table in Access or SQL Studio Express Manager. Great programs, but I want to integrate!

Is there no way to make excel a database editor? I can retrieve data from any database or program with excel just fine, but is there a way to use excel to DIRECTLY EDIT the data in an external database with EXCEL like I can in access linked tables?

Getting Data From External Csv Source

Jul 18, 2008

I used to get data from external excel, access files and today tried to put together query to get data from CSV file. While using same source file, I have creted several queries to get data out based on criteria. For some strange reason, same structure queries that did run with excel or access as data source, does not want to work the same way with CSV files.

Here is example of non working query SQL:
SELECT Vendors.Vendor, Vendors.Name, Vendors.`Name 2`
FROM `Q:FinanceRapporterPSAPRaw`Vendors.csv Vendors
WHERE (Vendors.Name Like '%' & ? & '%')

If I enter "London" as a criteria input, it will not work. However, if I enter "ondon" it will find me all values records whre name contains London... Seems like I need to skip first symbol when entering criteria. This is, of course, not something I would like to do.
