What is the VBA code to import data from a Access table

RE: Excel VBA

Hi Barry

Than you for your question

There is no single line of code that will allow you to import data from a relational database such as access.

There is in fact a complete set of objects known a ActiveX Data Objects (ADO) and you need a thorough understanding of these before you can properly import data into excel.

As a start I would recommend the following link which would get you started.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ActiveX_Data_Objects

ADO is a major topic area of the intermediate/advanced VBA course that we hope to launch in the next few months

Regards

Stephen

Excel tip:

Creating a range of monthly payments as text

You could use a formula to create a range of payment ie. payment amount for x% to y% rate with fixed terms and principle.

The text that would be "between Xamount and Yamount".

Here is how to do it.

1 Use the PMT function to get your monthly payments figure or whatever frequency of payments that you choose he start range.

See PMT under Excel Help

2. Nest these in the ROUND function to round decimals see ROUND under Excel Help

3. Concatenate this using "&" and concatenate " to " and concatenate "Between ".

4. Concatenate the above to PMT function for the end range

ie.

="Between "&ROUND((PMT1),decimal places)&" and "&ROUND((PMT2),decimal places)
