Can you import and export data files as part of a macro?

RE: Macros

Hi Victoria,

Thank you for your question.

Create a new macro and try one of these actions to try and achieve your goal:

TransferSpreadsheet, TransferDatabase or TransferText.

All three options have the choice of Importing or Exporting.

I hope this answers your question.

Regards

Simon

Access tip:

Run with the total

Often when creating reports with lists of transactions it can be useful to have a column which totals the transactions as the report progresses.

Using the Sum function gives the total for the whole group, not a running total.

Access provides an easy method of achieving a running total.

Click on the text box containing the data you wish to contain the running total.
Select the Data tab
Click in the Running sum option
Click the down arrow to view three options
