Importing External Data
The process of importing external data is quite simple. You can import external data by using the user interface or by using VBA code. If you are planning to import the data only once or twice, you should use the user interface. If you are importing data on a regular basis (for example, from a downloaded mainframe file), you should write code that accomplishes the task transparently to the user.Using the User Interface
To import an external data file using the user interface, follow these steps: 1. Click to select the External Data tab. 2. Select the appropriate import type by clicking the appropriate icon in the Import group. (Note that you can also click Saved Imports to perform an import that you have previously saved.) The dialog box that appears varies depending on the type of data you are importing. Figure 20.1 provides an example. 3. Notice in Figure 20.1 that you can opt to import the source data into a new table in the current database, append a copy of the records to the table, or link to the data source by creating a linked table. For this example, select the first option, Import the Source Data into a New Table in the Current Database. 4. Click Browse to locate the file that you want to import. The File Open dialog box appears. 5. Navigate to the file that you want to import and then click Open. Access returns you to the Get External Data – Excel Spreadsheet dialog box.6. Click OK. Depending on the type of file you select, the import process finishes, or you see additional dialog boxes. If you select Excel Spreadsheet, for example, the Import Spreadsheet Wizard appears, as shown in Figure 20.2. This wizard walks you through the process of importing spreadsheet data.CAUTION
If you find that you can't bring a large (4–5MB) text file directly into an Access database, change the text file into an Excel spreadsheet first and then import that file.This material orginally appeared in Alison Balter's book Mastering Microsoft Office Access 2007 Development.
