Exporting multiple files to a template instead of a new file!

[bilbo+]

Hi there, using the code below i am exporting several temp queries to new
Excel files, can anyone think of a way to export them to a template and
specific range and then save as a new file instead since I cant get it to
work... Its so that I can effectively 'paste' the info into a pre designed
excel file...

Thanks

Any help much appreciated!

You can export all the temp queries to the same EXCEL file if you keep the
same name for the EXCEL file in each TransferSpreadsheet action step. If you
use the name of an EXCEL file that already exists, the TransferSpreadsheet
action will export into that file, and won't create a new one, so long as
you give it the correct name of the EXCEL file.

As for exporting to a specific range in the EXCEL file, see this article for
information on how you MIGHT be able to use the undocumented Range argument
for the export step:

EXCEL File

Hello, thanks for the prompt reply. What I really want to be able to do is
export the different tables to the same template, and then save it as A
SEPARATE file. So what i will end up with is say 50 excel spreadsheets, made
from the tempalte, with their relevant different details inside.

a bit of background info - what ive got is a table fill of students and
universities, what i need is an excel spreadsheet per university which has
their students inside. And this info needs to be added to a pre made excel
spreadsheet (which has other info in it)

Does that make sense?

any help greatly appreciated!

If you export 50 differently named queries to the same EXCEL workbook,
you'll get 50 worksheets within that one workbook.

Your use of "template" -- are you wanting each worksheet to be based on a
single worksheet template?

Yeah basically I have a workbook where the first worksheet has some other
info in it and thi exprt data from access needs to go into columns G and H.
It also has a macro attached to it that will need to be on every spreadsheet
file. Does that make sense?

Only way I know for doing this will involve VBA code to make a copy of the
template file, export a query into that copy, repeat for each query to be
exported, and then use Automation to open all the exported workbook files
and to create a new file and then to copy the spreadsheets from each of the
exported workbooks into the newly created workbook file.

As for exporting just to columns G and H, if the export involves contiguous
cells, the Range argument (the article that I linked to in my first reply)
MAY be useful. If you're not using contiguous cells, then the steps in the
first paragraph above would have to be revised to use Automation to write
the data into the worksheet cells (I have an article on my website, above
the one I linked to earlier) that shows how to do that.

How strong are your ACCESS VBA and EXCEL VBA skills?
