    Custom upload data to Access from Excel

    Hi,



    I am working on a project where I need to upload selected data from multiple sheets of an excel file. Here is an example of what I want.

    1. I want to create a table in Access with around 10 columns
    2. Column 1 should be populated with the date field found in A2 cell of sheet 1 of the excel file
    3. Column 2-5 should be populated with the columns B2-E200 in sheet 2 of the excel file.
    4. Columns 6-7 would be populated based on values from columns 1-2 of the table. Basically Column 6 should be Column 1 date plus 60 days.
    5. Column 8-10 would be user generated after the excel is imported and the user should have the ability to attach around 5 files to each row.

    Could you please let me know if this is possible. Would really appreciate it.

    Thanks.

    Options:

    1. set links to the sheets then run INSERT SELECT queries to pull data from the links into the table

    2. lots of VBA code that opens the workbook as an object and then manipulates the object to pull in one cell of data at a time and save to table
    How to attach file: http://www.accessforums.net/showthread.php?t=70301 To provide db: copy, remove confidential data, run compact & repair, zip w/Windows Compression.
