OutputTo in Excel 2000 Format

53 New Member
Hi,

I'm using MS Access 2000. I have a button that does this:

DoCmd.RunMacro "ExportSomeQuer y"

the macro uses the OutputTo command to export the query into excel. I want it to export in MS Excel 97-2000 format, but it exports in Microsoft Excel 5.0/7.0. I can't seem to find a way to change this. Can someone help me adjust this?

Thanks in advance,

Raza

ah i figured it out - Using OutputTo reverts back to Microsof Excel 5.0. I also had a problem of it not exporting queries because of too many rows (5.0 only supports around 16k rows). My solution was to just use TransferSpreads heet to allow the user to just export it to their desktop.

I'm using OutputTo to send data into Excel. It has been working nicely. Now, I need to add more worksheets using OutputTo. Whenever I use it, it replaces the existing worksheet. Is there any way to get OutputTo to create more than one worksheet?

I was using SendTo to e-mail a report in my database. However, the client uses Outlook with Exchange, which doesn't allow attachments to be sent via SendTo. So I converted it to MAPI code. The new code requires me to first to an explicit export of the report using OutputTo (to a snapshot format), and then to attach the created file to the mail message. When I perform the export using OutputTo, I get the message: "Expression is typed...

I've hit a bit of a brick wall here, and could use some advice. I have an Access application whose output is a four-tab Excel spreadsheet where three of the four tabs are the result of database queries. A number of fields in the queries are designed to become formulae in Excel after the export has taken place (and they need to be in Excel rather than Access). I need to use the TransferSpreadsheet Method rather than the OutputTo to enable...

This board has been a plethora of information. Thanks to all that respond! I have a quick question regarding the built-in OutputTo macro. I've built a shared database in Access 2003 (in Access 2000 file format) that resides on a shared network drive. This OutputTo macro is essentially setup to export one small table to an Excel spreadsheet once a user clicks a command button on the switchboard. Another user and I (both of us have...

Hello. I was hoping that someone may be able to assist with an issue that I am experiencing. I have created an Access DB which imports an Excel File with a particular layout and field naming.

I have a question regarding the DoCmd.OutputTo function. I have an invoice report that shows all of the invoices for a particular date.

Hi, I'm going to be giving many people an access database file with a switchboard with quite a few essential queries (query-by-form) so that they can pull data whenever they want. I have a button to export the file into excel as well. The issue I have is with this button. I used to have this button running a macro that would OutputTo in Excel format. Since this limits me to around 16k records because of it outputting into microsoft excel...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it.
