Using Excel to change/add/delete records in Access database
I have an access database that I download from a game company. In that
database there is an Orders table which is built with their own program. I however use Excel for everything including parsing their turn results file. Currently I am working on creating the orders with validation lists and formulas along with a little VBA coding to simulate the order entry program since it very user UN-firendly. I have read some other posts about the INSERT INTO option of the database connection but after reading them I still don't know how to apply them to my situation. Specifically the Orders Table is located in SN Turn Entry Data.mdb and contains a list of orders that will be executed on my next turn. If I create those orders in Excel how would I connect to this database and change specific records. Each record contains an Empire ID#, Order Code, Priority #, and 51 fields describing the different arguments for each type of order. I would like to access this table by a combination of Empire # and Priority # and change (or add if not found) the order using data in Excel Cells. I am familiar with Excel VBA but unfamiliar with Access VBA. Any help would be appreciated. |
