What is the VBA code to import data from a Access table

RE: Excel VBA

Hi Barry

Than you for your question

There is no single line of code that will allow you to import data from a relational database such as access.

There is in fact a complete set of objects known a ActiveX Data Objects (ADO) and you need a thorough understanding of these before you can properly import data into excel.

As a start I would recommend the following link which would get you started.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ActiveX_Data_Objects

ADO is a major topic area of the intermediate/advanced VBA course that we hope to launch in the next few months

Regards

Stephen

Excel tip:

Checking if a calculation adheres to Order of Precedence

When writing formulas you must make sure that results will be calculated as you intended.

Excel adheres to the standard order of precedence for calculations. It calculates percentages, exponents, multiplication, and division in this order before calculating addition and subtraction.

For example, =7+5*3 results in an answer of 22, not 36.

To force a calculation to be completed before another calculations, place the section in parentheses: =(7+5)*3 will result in 36.

To check how excel is evaluating a formula, click on the cell and select the 'Tools' menu, select 'Formula Auditing' and click 'Evaluate Formula'

In the dialog box click on 'Evaluate' to watch as each part of the formula is successively calculated.
