RE: access

Hi Jasmine

Thanks for your question

Could you clarify your needs for me please.

Specifically do you wish to export data from access into Excel. We have covered importing data from excel into access on a previous post.

If you could also perhaps give me some specifics as to the context in which you are working that would also be helpful

Thanks

Stephen

RE: access

hi Stephen

we have been sent details of approx 400 clients with names, dob address etc and i know there are alot of duplicates within the excel form and find it really difficult to not only view the data but to make any sense of it and want to transfer all the data into access and sift for duplications. Because each person recieves funds it is imperative that there are no dupliations and a more simple system that anyone could look at and print a report off

many thanks

Jasmine

Access tip:

Choosing data types in Access

Not sure which data type to use for your Access fields? Here are some guidelines to help you choose a data type to assign to a field.

- The Text data type can accept up to 255 characters. For information that will be recorded in paragraphs, use Memo.

- Also use Text for numbers that aren't going to be used in calculations, e.g. phone numbers.

- Use the Currency data type for monetary amounts.

- Use Date/Time for dates.

- Most other numbers can use the Number data type, but the Field Size property may have to be altered.

- For fields that have only two alternatives (yes, no) use Yes/No data type. If there is likely to be a third entry option (e.g. maybe or don't know) use Text instead.
