Uploading Spreadsheets and Worksheets into Access Databases
Hi
I could do with some advice on uplading information form spreadsheets and various worksheets within a spreadsheet into a database.
I am aware that it is possible to upload a single worksheet into an access database, my question is, is it a problem to ask the database to upload information from two separate worksheets within a spreadsheet?
Is is better to keep it as two spreadsheets?
Or can you specify certain fields off each worksheet?
What happens if someone changes a heading of a column in a worksheet, will it reject the upload? Or what if someone changed the column order?
Any advice on this would be great
Thanks
RE: Uploading Spreadsheets and Worksheets into Access Databases
Hi Clare
If you want to upload more than one worksheet from an excel workbook you have two options:
1. Import each worksheet separately and then use an Upend Query to unite the data.
2. If this is a recurring job or you need some fields from one sheet and the rest from another, you will need to use Macros(VBA code).
