the best way to export 600K records

C

confused!!

My DB has over 600 thousand records. I need to export them to excel.

How do i manage to export the records into excel so to capture all records?
I don't see a way to export a selection and excel only holds 65K of them

Ok so i understand there may not be a way to make the export into xcel with
this many rows.

But the only reason i need it exported into excel is to put this formula in
=MAX(IF((A$2:A$20212=D5)*(B$2:B$20212<=TODAY()),B$2:B$20212))
to convert the julian date to calendar date.

The data base will have one name appear many times in one column with
different dates in another column.

So i next need to a way to return the latest date associated with the one
name.

What version of Access are you using? You might have to export them to
several worksheets/books....

Excel 2007 can hold 1 million rows. You need code like below to do it.

DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acExport, 10, "Cargo_tariff",
"c:\temp\Cargo_tariff.xlsx", False, ""
