hi,
I'm trying to use a macro to import a file that contains a certain filename. the catch is the file name will always be the current date. ex. johndoe101707.txt. i'm new to access so, you may have to simplify the code for me.
Thanks

hi,
I'm trying to use a macro to import a file that contains a certain filename. the catch is the file name will always be the current date. ex. johndoe101707.txt. i'm new to access so, you may have to simplify the code for me.
Thanks
- "johndoe" & Right("0" & Month(Date()), 2) & Right("0" & Day(Date()), 2) & Right(Year(Date()), 2) & ".txt"
- "johndoe" & Right("0" & Month(Date()), 2) & Right("0" & Day(Date()), 2) & Right(Year(Date()), 2) & ".txt"
Thank you, I just tried running the code and it said that i cannot import a file that doesnt contain the following extensions: .txt, .csv, and etc.. i'm not sure if it has something to do with the quotation marks surrounding the txt or what. Thanks for the help so far
It's an expression so you have to put = in front of it first.
ok so far this is my code, if i'm correct i'm inputting this into the macro and the action to be performed is transfer text, correct? after that i impute the code on the line that says filename. File name is where i in put the following:
\\C\desktop\="johndoe" & Right("0" & Month(Date()), 2) & Right("0" & Day(Date()), 2) & Right(Year(Date()), 2) & ".txt"
after i insert the equal sign it says that the file must end in .txt or should i write the code in vb and if so, how? here's my code in VB - Public Sub import()
-
Dim Apel As Date
-
Dim APELLES As String
-
Dim result As String
-
-
Docmd.TransferText = "johndoe" & Right("0" & Month(Date), 2) & Right("0" & Day(Date), 2) & Right(Year(Date), 2) & ".txt"
-
-
End Sub
-
i get all sorts of errors ranging from object doesnt support this method to variable functions.
nothing happens here either.
Thanks a lot.
In the filename field, you put: - ="C:\desktop\johndoe" & Right("0" & Month(Date()), 2) & Right("0" & Day(Date()), 2) & Right(Year(Date()), 2)
In the filename field, you put:
- ="C:\desktop\johndoe" & Right("0" & Month(Date()), 2) & Right("0" & Day(Date()), 2) & Right(Year(Date()), 2)
Thanks a lot, finally got the code working. I really appreciate it.
Not a problem, good luck.
