Hi,
Has anyone seen this weird behaviour or have any suggestions or can
anyone reproduce it?
The history:
I converted a large third party DB from 97 to XP and it uses the
TransferSpreads heet method. This method requires a somewhat
complicated spreadsheet to be open in order to work. A simple
spreadsheet does not have this pre-open requirement.
Access XP is on Citrix and Office 2000 is on the desktop - don't ask!
The users cannot open the spreadsheet locally (as they used to)
because Access and Excel cannot communicate across the Citrix
boundary. I decided to open the spreadsheet on Citrix using
automation and then let the existing code do its thing.
All testing is with local copies of Access XP (SP2) and Excel 2000
(SP3) with Jet4.0 (SP8) on WinXP (SP1). I ran into some weird errors
and managed to isolate them in a separate simple project.
The problem:
Create an Excel spreadsheet with some simple column headers and a
couple of rows of data and save it as "C:\Temp\Test.x ls". Create a
new DB and add the supplied code to a module.
Run the TestLots procedure once and all is good.
** Open the task manager and check for rogue copies of EXCEL.EXE -
this seems to be a critical step and usually there are no instances
but not always.
Run the procedure a second (or third) time and the TransferSpreads heet
method fails with a Run-Time error '3000' - as an aside, click the
Help button and get a blank screen.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm going to test it on Office
2000 at home tonight. I highly suspect its the XP/2000 mix - or, with
some luck, something very simple like a property called "add random
errors". Restarting Access and killing any copies of Excel fixes the
problem for the first execution.
Const strTEST_XLS = "C:\Temp\Test.x ls"
Private Sub TestBothFails()
Dim objExcel As Object
Set objExcel = CreateObject("E xcel.Applicatio n")
objExcel.Workbo oks.Open strTEST_XLS, ReadOnly:=True
DoCmd.TransferS preadsheet _
TableName:="Hel loWorld", Filename:=strTE ST_XLS
objExcel.Quit
Set objExcel = Nothing
End Sub
Public Sub TestLots()
Dim intCount As Integer
For intCount = 1 To 5
Debug.Print "Pass number " & intCount
TestBothFails
Next

How do you specify a specific worksheet? I know this works if the worksheet

Hi All,
In Access97 I'm using a TransferSpreadsheet acExport in vba code and
it errors when the spreadsheet I'm exporting does not exist. If I
create a empty spreadsheet with the name I use in the
TransferSpreadsheet statement it works.
I don't understand whats going on here, why won't TransferSpreadsheet
create the spreadsheet if did does not exist?
thanks
bobh.

re:Access 2003
TransferSpreadsheet has worked in my app for weeks now.
Now, the day I was to put in production (today) it crashes the app,
and users are livid...but not more than me though..embarrassed is more
like it
As an outside test, I built a "DummyApp.mdb" with a form, and a
command button that only performs a transferspreadsheet on the same
Excel file as my production app is using. The DummyApp works fine.
what has caused this.

I'm using TransferSpreadsheet to import an Excel file in to MS Access

DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acImport, 8, strTable, strFileName, True, ""
One of the columns in the Excel file is a number formatted field, but
occasionally a cell in that column will not have a value.
When that happens, the code is not returning an error, but I end up
with a table of the Import Errors where that blank field value could
