Need a little more detail to provide more tailored code, but this
should get you going in the right direction. Keep in mind, there is no error handling built into this. Sub updateDB() Dim conn As Object, sql As String Dim databaseFullName As String databaseFullName = "R:\ACC.mdb" sql = "UPDATE tblInstructorsTest SET " & _ "tblInstructorsTest.InstructorID = '" & _ Range("A1").Text & "' WHERE " & _ "(((tblInstructorsTest.InstructorID)='WRIG')); " Set conn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") conn.Open "PROVIDER=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & _ "Data Source=" & databaseFullName conn.Execute sql conn.Close Set conn = Nothing End Sub Sub deleteDB() Dim conn As Object, sql As String Dim databaseFullName As String databaseFullName = "R:\ACC.mdb" sql = "Delete tblInstructorsTest.InstructorID " & _ "FROM tblInstructorsTest WHERE " & _ "(((tblInstructorsTest.InstructorID)='" & _ Range("A1").Text & "'));" Set conn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") Set rs = CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset") conn.Open "PROVIDER=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & _ "Data Source=" & databaseFullName conn.Execute sql conn.Close Set conn = Nothing End Sub Also, things such as the table name should really be set to a variable. If you can provide more detailed information about what you need done (ie. database name, database location, table name, etc, etc), then I may be able to provide a more tailored code.

How can I then update that record in access? Also, I want to be able to remove a record in the db too. Thanks |
