Hi all experts,

I have created a program to put more control on data being used my organisation.

I want user to download all data from a MS access DB and do all working in excel and then update a field in DB with their name. I need a macro which can search a record in access from the multiple rows in excel and update a name field & time updated field in access.

I will be greatful if anyone can help me with above macro. Please e-mail me at email address removed - Moderator. Refer point 19 of the Posting Rules

Return population for a City
If you have a list of cities in A2:A100, use Data, Geography. Then =A2.Population and copy down.

Welcome to the Forum,

Which way round are you looking to achieve this. IE from Excel get the data out of Access or from Access send to Excel?

What you can do is set up a docmd.transferspreadsheet from Access, do what you want in Excel, then transfer it back in Access perhaps to a temp table then use an update query to update the changed records.

To help you we would request you also let us know which version of MS Office you are using, if using VBA then it will help stepping through the instructions.
