Does anyone know of a way to download data directly into a certain column?
Basically at the moment I wrote some code to download data from an SQL server in which it queries the data when downloading. After it has finished downloading on that page I would use VLOOKUPS to get the data from that page but I now want to eliminate that extra procedure and have it download directly onto the page in a single column, my code can be seen below: Sub SPICEdownload_query() On Error GoTo datapullerr Dim wk As Workbook Dim data As Worksheet, para As Worksheet Dim Sql$ Set wk = ThisWorkbook Set data = wk.Sheets("SHEETNAME") Dim wrkodbc As Workspace Dim db As DAO.Database Dim rs As DAO.Recordset Dim r As Range Dim ts As String Set wrkodbc = CreateWorkspace("NewODBCWorkspace", _ "admin", "", dbUseODBC) Set db = wrkodbc.OpenDatabase("Spice", , , "ODBC;DSN=DSN;UID=UID;pwd=pwd;SERVER=SERVER;") ts = "" i = 3 Sql = data.Cells(2, 4) Set rs = db.OpenRecordset(Sql, dbOpenSnapshot) If rs.EOF Then MsgBox "index value not available" Else Dim qt As QueryTable data.Range("a3:bb60000").ClearContents ' empty sheet Set qt = data.QueryTables.Add(rs, data.Range("a3")) qt.AdjustColumnWidth = False ' qt need not adjust width qt.BackgroundQuery = False ' dont run on background. qt.PreserveFormatting = True qt.RefreshStyle = xlOverwriteCells qt.FieldNames = True qt.Refresh tmpstr = data.Name & "!" & qt.Name qt.Delete ' rid of the querytable ' delete the name that is created is using query table For Each n In wk.Names If n.Name = tmpstr Then n.Delete Exit For End If Next n End If rs.Close db.Close Set rs = Nothing Set db = Nothing Exit Sub datapullerr: MsgBox (" Download Error; Operation aborted ") 'rs.Close db.Close Set rs = Nothing Set db = Nothing End Sub So basically that clears the contents of the sheet and downloads directly from the server based on the SQL statement that I place within the data.cells field on the worksheet. I also want to eliminate that procedure as well and incorporate the SQL query statement within the code. Also I tried eliminating the Clearcontents function of the sheet but I'm getting errors when I do, if anyone can shed some light on this it would be much appreciated. |
