Running Access Queries in Excel

34 New Member
I want to be able to run multiple access queries on a single microsoft excel worksheet.

Ideally I want to define what queries i want in excel and import the results of all queries one after another.

Can anyone suggest a good book to help me develope this? or maybe point me in the right direction?

To Execute a Query from a Command Button on an Excel Worksheet, set a Reference to the Microsoft Access XX.X Object Library, then place this code in the Button's Click() Event:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
  2. Dim objAccess As Object
  3.  
  4. Set objAccess = GetObject("C:\Test\Test.mdb")
  5.  
  6. objAccess.Visible = True
  7.  
  8. objAccess.DoCmd.OpenQuery "qryInvoice"
  9.  
  10. objAccess.Quit
  11. Set objAccess = Nothing
  12. End Sub

I imagine then, that what would be involved is fairly complex Automation Code. Why not Export the Query results to an Excel Spreadsheet(s) within Access?

I really wanted to be able to specify what queries I want to pull in the excel spreadsheet. In additional use filter in excel to filter results by cost centre. I know it can be done because I have seen it working.

I have recently purchased a book online call integrating access and excel but I am not sure how good it will be. I really don't know where to start the only VBA I have used is in access.

The same VBA would equally apply in Excel, you would simply have a different Object Hierarchy, and the Reference would be to the Microsoft Access XX.X Object Library.

I have a Access database with a large amount of records (close to 500,000) that I would like to export to Excel. I found out that Excel has the capability of of about 65,000 rows so I know I cannot export the whole file at once. What I would like to do is divide the database records into smaller groups that Excel can handle. Does anyone know how I can export a group of records to Excel without getting an error?

Hello access friends, (Originally posted on access.formsprogramming which I think was the wrong place) I'm precalculating a bunch of data for my clients as per a profile I have for each of them. Each data set that I generate, I put into an separate Access file which I eventually move to a server location that the particular client and I share access to.

I am trying to run an Access query from Excel. The query, called "ProdActs1" works in Access and is run from using information from a table called "Queries". When a button is clicked in Excel, data currently in the table is deleted and new data is sent based on cell value on the Excel worksheet. So far, I can delete the old records and add new data. I just cannot seem to return results from the query "ProdActs1". Also, is it possible to specify...

I hope this isn't too confusing. The following query runs pretty fast by itself, but when I want to use it in a report (pasted below the query), it takes at least fifteen seconds to run! Then I want to analyze the query in Excel and I have to do some manual tweaking. I'd like to run this same query as a summary for the whole class without having to manually do it in Excel, rather in an Access report, but that gets even more complicated....
