Vba to update excel from access

[JSH720]

USING ACCESS ONLY TO GENERATE REPORTS AND QUERIES. I CAN LINK EXCEL TO ACCESS AND MAKE CHANGES, BUT CANNOT MAKE CHANGES IN ACCESS BACK TO EXCEL WITHOUT IMPORTING AND EXPORTING (SIGH ACCESS LOST THE LAWSUIT)

sorry caps was on ....... Need VBA to allow editing from either program, escpecially from Access back to excel.

Thanks.

There are 2 methods that I know of. One is called Automation, the other is the TransferSpreadsheet method, which in spite of its name, will export an Access table or query to Excel, or a spreadsheet to Access. The latter is simpler, I think. There's a gazillion code examples out there for either method already so it doesn't seem logical to manually reinvent the wheel here - especially for Automation. It's much more complicated.
This one is just one of those many sites available.

Here is an example of some VBA code in Access used to update Excel: https://www.mrexcel.com/forum/microsoft-access/453613-using-access-vba-edit-excel-document.html

There are others like that on the internet, if you do a Googl Search on "Access VBA update Excel".
