Create Access like report in Excel.
I have data in Access and can export to Excel. I can create an Access Report
or using Word template and Mail Merge to create the same Access report using detail data from a query. I also have an Access report with sub totals at 3 group levels. I am running the report using a query. I would like to be able to create the 3 group level report in Excel with appropriate headings and footings using automation from data created in an Access query and exported to Excel. Where should I look to get a description of the terminology, process, and an example? Jack |
Create Access like report in Excel.
From your description you are probably best off with a pivot table. This is
similar to a cross tab query in Access. In Excel... Data - Pivot Table Wizard comes up Get data from External Source Choose Access Find the Database Find the Query Grab the Fields Save the data in Excel Define where you want the pivot table to land Drag the Dimensions (Fields) onto the table. Lots of option how to arrange and rearrange the data. This is good for up to about 700,000 records, and you can refresh the data any time. You can also choose an auto format to make your data pretty. Look up pivot tables and you should get lots of help... Post back any specific question you might have though... HTH "J-Sherm-Dwyer" wrote: I have data in Access and can export to Excel.
