Hi there

I am trying to work out the code to get records stored in Access (but
accessed via an Excel Interface) to open up in a new Excel workbook on
clicking a button (an 'export' or 'extract' function if you like) -
both 2003 versions...

I have successfully gotten them to open up into a new form (Excel
VBA), just can't get this right...(so haven't bothered putting my
sorry excuse for an attempt below, just the SQL stuff that sits behind
the combo boxes and then the code that opens it up in a new form etc)

Note: I do not want to create a query in Access and have Excel tap
into that. I have written an SQL in the Excel form - much
smoother...simply using the Access DB as a storage can..

Really appreciate some [any!] help here...have looked at other
people's spiels and the KB to no avail!

thanks in advance..
Sue

From what I understand, you can use Excel's built in CopyFromRecordset
method.

Dim wkb As Workbook
Dim wks As Worksheet
Set wkb = Workbooks.Add(1)
Set wks = wkb.Worksheets(1)
wks.Range("A1").CopyFromRecordset rs2

Hi Tim

Many thanks for that..

This is what I actually have at the moment, however I continue to get
a runtime error (5) when it hits this line:

wks.Range("A1").CopyFromRecordset rs2

"Invalid Procedure Call or Argument", and when I hover over it, rs2 =
nothing.. I'm missing something, just can't work out what..any ideas?

cheers, Sue

It should go after the OpenRecordset command. Since there are 2 recordset
objects, maybe you are referring to the wrong one (?).

Yeah, tried that.. no such luck unfortunately.

This approach works for me. Adjust the connection and command text to suit.
It needs a reference to the ADO library (ActiveX Data Objects 2.x).

Sub CopyFromRecordsetAdoTest()
'Set reference to ActiveX Data Objects 2.x Library
Dim rs As ADODB.Recordset
Dim conn As String
Dim strSql As String
Dim wkb As Workbook
Dim wks As Worksheet
conn = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data
Source=<Your_Database.mdb;"
strSql = "<Your_Command_Text;"
Set rs = New ADODB.Recordset
rs.Open strSql, conn, adOpenForwardOnly, adLockReadOnly, adCmdText
If rs.EOF Then
MsgBox "No records."
Else
Set wkb = Workbooks.Add(1)
Set wks = wkb.Worksheets(1)
wks.Range("A1").CopyFromRecordset rs
End If
If rs.State = adStateOpen Then
rs.Close
End If
Set rs = Nothing
Set wks = Nothing
Set wkb = Nothing
End Sub
