Got great code from Joel last week, but now looking at...
Column L in the DBF is what makes the Row (Record) Unique. Column L in the Daily excel file is a "mixture" of Entries w/ 9 or 10 characters. I know when making a DBF Manually from Excel, that Excel looks at the first few rows to "guess" what DataType it is, and number of characters. Working w/ this particular file, Excel has to be "guessing" it's 9 characters instead of the actual (example) 10 characters below. MSR0332476 MSR0332489 MSR0332488 MSR0332486 So...the DBF results in... MSR033247 MSR033248 -- Can't be a Primary Key MSR033248 -- Can't be a Primary Key MSR033248 -- Can't be a Primary Key Is there a way to use VBA to set the number of characters in the DBF's Column L to 10-characters? TIA - Bob |
