Hello,
I have a problem with importing data from ms access to excel with VBA. I use "ADO Connection" to connect excel with acces. When I use "xlSheet.Range("A5").CopyFromRecordset rs" to import data from access db, it's works fine. But I want to skip some column in excel sheet. How can I do it? sorry im new in vba ..

my db table
idnamedatedescription

<tbody>
</tbody>



my excel sheet
ABCDE
id herename heredate hereskip columndescription here
..........

<tbody>
</tbody>

Welcome to the forum!

Within your connection string, you can choose to select all (SELECT * ) and use code to insert a column (which would shift the description data to column E. You could also break things up and select id, name, date in your first copy from recordset command and repeat with selecting only the description and sending to E5.

Here's an article that explains ADO Connections in great detail:
