The data looks fine in the table when I display it in a form or look directly in the table, however, when I export it as a fixed length field, ...

I am trying to export a Crosstab query to Excel using the CopyFromRecordset function. The crosstab query is based on another query which, in turn has criteria from a form.

Importing From Excel
My Access application imports a fairly large amount of its information from Microsoft Excel. Two tables in my database will need to be updated with large amounts of data from Excel, and data already in the tables cannot be harmed. One of these tables may be updated fairly regularly, and the import process must be quick, easy, and reliable. Now, as with most databases, both of these ta...

object invalid or no longer set error problem
We have developed an access application with a backend access DB on the network. The application contains forms that display a lot of data.

HTML Exporting - How to Change Display Name
Hey All, I currently have a routine that creates a table with a hyperlink reference to a network location (ACC2003). This hyperlink ends up being lengthy once I export this table to HTML.

Export Report to Excel Fails
When we try to export a report to Excel, Access goes through the motions, listing the pages it is outputting, one by one. The problem is that when it is finished, no file has been created. Exporting to a text file works just fine. Trying to overwrite an existing file just causes the existing file to disappear. Any ideas where we should start to look? Thank you, Bud ...
