Code for getting Access recordset into Excel
 

I am looking to see if some one can give me some basic code, using
ADO, that will query an Access database using a cell value as a
variable and then returning a recordset value to a cell. i.e.

cell A1= employeeNumber
using employee number, query the tblEmployee and return the Employee
name in B2

any help is appreciated. If anyone know of a good tutorial site for
doing this type of thing i would appreciate it.

thanks

Thanks! I am just trying to understand what i=i+1 is about. Is that
there for the loop in case I am trying to pull more than the Name?
ie, if I wanted ss# then it would be placed in b3...etc??

Code for getting Access recordset into Excel
 

the i = i +1 is a loop to get next row in case you were pulling more then
one employee at a time
If you look at the top of the code you will see i = 2 meaning row 2
If your wanting to add something else you would use
Range("C" & i) = rs1!SocialNumber
Range("D" & i) = rs1!DateOfHire
and so on

Everything worked great! Now I have kinda of taken this up a notch
into a differenent scenario. I want to get values from an Access
table into a list box or combo box. I have a jobNumber that a user
would input and that would need to return all of the possible JobAreas
it has into a Combo Box on my worksheet. Ideas?
