Work with Access Database

How to incorporate database files into excel worksheets?

RE: Work with Access Database

Hi Holly,

If you simply wish to export an Access table into a spreadsheet then its pretty simple. Simply open the Access database and in the main window right click on the table you wish to export and select "export" from the resulting context menu. It will then prompt you to select an export format and all you need do is choose the excel version that you have.

It is also possible to create more sophisticated results by building a query and exporting that to excel. Simply create a query that captures the required information and save it. Then right click on it in the database window and proceed as before.

Regards

Stephen

Excel tip:

Repeating headings on spreadsheets that print on more than one page

By default when you print a spreadsheet out and it prints on more than one page, the headings at the top and the side of the spreadsheet don't appear on all the pages following page 1.

To get Excel to repeat headings on all pages when printing, go to File - Page Setup - Sheet, then select the rows to repeat at the top of pages, and the columns to repeat at the side of pages by clicking on the red arrows at the right side of the two boxes under the 'Print titles' area. Then click OK.

If you view your spreadsheet in Print Preview, you should see the headings being repeated on each page.
