Access Tables

Hi,

I did not get a response to the questions below, can you please help to respond:

- please explain how to import a table of data from excel into an access table.

- the table in question provides closing USD:EUR forex rates for each day over past year, which I need to use to convert sales numbers in a seperate table. please explain how I can set up query that links the two tables and how to multiply sales number by fx rate. i would like to do this in access rather then excel.

RE: Access Tables

Hello Vishal

Thank you for your question.

Apologies for the delay - I believe a trainer has responded to your original post now.

Kind regards
Amanda

RE: Access Tables

H Amanda, I have asked the following follow up question but did not get a reply. Can you please forward to Simon. Thanks.

Thank you for your response. I will try this on wednesday when back in office.

The sales figures are in an existing access table which has numerous other fields detailing various aspects of sale (client, amount, currency, settlement, product etc.).

I do not see how I can link the forex table to the sales table. The only common field is the date, but they do not have same string of values. The dates on the forex table are continuous (ie every day this year) whereas the dates on the sales table are broken (and only occur when transactions are made and there may be multiple on any given day). Do you know how I could link the tables?


 

Access tip:

Display current date & time in column of any width

The worksheet function =NOW() returns the current date & time. When entered into a column which is not wide enough to display the value NOW returns, the cell displays ###
