Trying to Export Report to Excel 2003

scott04

Hi everyone,

I am using access 2003 and am trying to export a report that comes from a
query to excel however some of the text is cut off. I have read others
problems but couldnt find the shoe that fit. Can someone help? Can i have
some sort of marco that runs my query and then dumps it into excel fully? If
so please explain. Thanks for your help!

Scott

Gina,

I first tried just pulling my report. Then clicked export and tried to dump
data in excel 1997-2003 and the other version of excel. It cut off probabbly
after 255 characters when it transfered it to excel.

I have tired the transferspreadsheet method but that did not seem to work
for me. I was thinking there had to be an easier way then what i was doing.
The only time it fully copied everything is when i transfered the query to
XML. When i did that it kept my entire memo field. I do not want to have in
in XML since my end user really just needs it in excel.

I am not sure what you mean by distinct but there is not any grouping in the
query.

Is it the Notes field that is the Memo field?

Gina,

I am using excel 2003 as well...if i run the query all along i get all of
the data from the memo field. I do not get the data when i transfer or
export as it cuts at 255 characters. Using the mid function in the query
from (1, 255) then (256, 500) works but does not look nice since sometimes
words are cut up.

Scott,

Okay, I am getting stumped becase as I said, I ran some tests and cannot
duplicate... Let's try this, what happens if you use TransferSpreadsheet on
the table? Also, copy/paste the TransferSpreadsheet line you are using
here.

Scott,

First let me say, glad that got worked out! Now, as for the 255 character
limit (I assuming here you're talking about the column heading), that is an
Access limit so not sure how you are going to get around that. Any way you
can shorten those column headers?
