    Excel Reports


    Hello everyone,

    So this isn't as much of an access question but an excel question.

    I just took over the responsibility of sending daily reports to our customers from an established DB that runs our field operations. Currently, I run a query and I export this into excel where I do a few calculations. I am then having to reformat the top row each time (wrap text, adjust column width, bold etc). I was wondering if there was a way to do this formatting automatically? It doesn't take too much time but when I factor in having to do this everyday the time adds up.

    Right now I am keeping a separate workbook open that is already formatted, copying the top row, and then using "Alt + ES" twice to copy formatting and column widths. Any help speeding this up would be great.

    Thanks!

    This would require VBA code that opens and manipulates Excel objects.

    Thanks for the reply. I guess for now I will stick with the method I am using now.
