Automating an Excel import
Once a day we recive an Excel spreadsheet that contains data for certain (but not all) the fields in one of the tables of a database. I know that it is possible to import these using the wizard but I wondered whether there was any way to automate the process.

Text Import Problem
Hi, I've been importing text files through ACCESS 97, 2000, 2004, and 2007 for many years. I just got a call from a client that said he was having problems importing a text delimited text file using 2007.

Importing "Tab-Delimited" text files
I Link a "Tab-delimited" text file, that I download several times a day from a vendors program, to [TableA]. Everything works fine, until another user tries to run a query or list box from the [TableA] then nothing happens, all returns are "Null". I probably should link to a [TableB] and append [TableB] to [TableA]. Hopefully there's a better way as not to have to add another manual step. ...

Data lost when exported from Access 2007 report to Word 2007
I created a report in Access 2007 using a table as the source. The report looks fine in Access. However, when I export it to Word 2007, it loses some lines of data--not on every page, however. Some pages are fine, others are missing a line in the middle; some miss a line at the end. If I export it to a text file, this does not happen; nor does it happen when I export to .pdf file. I have...

I understand there is no built-in way to export an Access report to Excel. Before anyone asks why I want to do such a thing, it is because my boss wants to view my reports in Excel. After getting this out of the way, does anyone know of any code or macro that will export an Access report with formatting to Excel? Thanks....
