Access - FORM - vb ends when encounters "#VALUE"

Hello
I am importing Excel files data into an Access database. My script goes through one Excel file at a time, row by row, and build a SQL statement for each row to insert data into the database. But on one of the Excel files, it encountered a cell with the value "#VALUE" in it, and the macro stops dead, leaving no debug message, no error popup, it just stops, with Excel file hanging in the process.

Has anyone ever encountered this?

I am using 2003 now, just recently, I am wondering if it is not related.

Thanks

I've had some issues like that before. I just copied and pasted values in the spreadsheet before import to get rid of calculations and to replace #VALUE and #N/A values with numbers or data.

I didn't have to deal with handling large numbers of spreadsheets or on a repeated cycle, so if that is the case, it would be too time consuming.

What is your code doing in detail?

Hi Nathan
... my code reads the data in each cell and builds an INSERT SQL statement, and at the end of each row, the code executes the SQL statement.

I do have many EXCEL files to go through, 308 at a time.

These EXCEL files have MACROS in them, I presume that is where #VALUE came from... but I have been doing this for a few years, I have never encountered this problem before... but this is the first upgrade since then, I was using Access 2000 before

I want to produce a trivial demonstration of dynamic modification. I thought that pressing a button might change its color. I studied O'Reillys books and successfully created the button with a fancy style, but the onclick fails to do anything no matter what permutation of parameters I try. <input type=button style=background-color:yellow;color:blue;font-family:Arial;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold name="xyz" value="CHANGE COLOUR"...

Hey guys, I'm new here, just a simple question. I'm learning to Program in C, and I was recommended a book called, "Mastering C Pointers", just asking if any of you have read it, and if it's worth the $25USD. I'm just looking for a book on Pointers, because from what I've read it's one of the toughest topics to understand. thanks in advanced.

I have a problem I just can't figure out. I have a form with a subform, and the recordsource of the subform has criteria based on some unbound fields in the parent form so that data in the parent form affects data in the subform. I've had this type of setup often, but I've run across a couple forms where this has caused an "enter parameter value" pop up for each reference to the parent control in the query when the main form is closed. ...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
