Hi all,
My name is Daniel
Iam trying to learn visual basic and I have been having problems building a marco in Access 2003 that will allow me to extract data from my Excel 2003 spreadsheet into my Access table (fields have the same name, i just need to change the data). The data in the spreadsheet is huge with 32 columns and about 7000 rows. I have tried to wirte code but i keep getting error messages.
Maybe i need to start with something with smaller data.
This is what i have done so far. Does anyone know how to help?
Sub DAOFromExcelToAccess()
' exports data from the active worksheet to a table in an Access database
' this procedure must be edited before use
Dim db As Database, rs As Recordset, r As Long
Set db = OpenDatabase("C:\FolderName\DataBaseName.mdb")
' open the database
Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("TableName", dbOpenTable)
' get all records in a table
r = 3 ' the start row in the worksheet
Do While Len(Range("A" & r).Formula) > 0
' repeat until first empty cell in column A
With rs
.AddNew ' create a new record
' add values to each field in the record
.Fields("FieldName1") = Range("A" & r).Value
.Fields("FieldName2") = Range("B" & r).Value
.Fields("FieldNameN") = Range("C" & r).Value
' add more fields if necessary...
.Update ' stores the new record
End With
r = r + 1 ' next row
Loop
rs.Close
Set rs = Nothing
db.Close
Set db = Nothing
I would appriciate any help or suggestion
Many Thanks
Regards Daniel
