Let me preface this question by saying no know virtually nothing about Excel
- I am an Access programmer - so please dumb down your answer for a newbie.
I have an Excel file supplied by my user. It started life (I think) as a
..pdf file that they somehow converted to Excel worksheet. The original file
must have been a print file because the page headers, page numbers etc are in
the cells with the data. It looks like they took a report and split it into
columns. If I try to import it to Access as an Excel file I get an error
message saying "The Microsoft Jet database engine could not find the object
"July 92"s$" (July 92 is the name of the first workbook page.) When I export
the Excel file as text and import the text file to Access, I get all the page
headings, page numbers etc. Does anyone have any idea of how I can get JUST
THE DATA from the original file from any of the formats - XL, .pdf. or .txt -
into an Access database? Is there a way to export only certain row or columns
from Excel? I'm lost.
TIA,
Lynne
