Read Access Data Into an Excel Worksheet

The code below illustrates how to read an Access table from Excel. You must include the Microsoft DAO 3.6 Object Library into the Excel Application.

Program Code

' *********************************************************
' Read Access Data Into Excel
' Make Sure To Use The Microsoft DAO 3.6 Object Library
' *********************************************************
Sub MyButton_Click()
    Dim dbs As DAO.Database
    Dim rst As DAO.Recordset
    Dim i As Long
    Dim strSQL As String
    i = 0
    strSQL = "SELECT City FROM tblCity"
    Set dbs = DBEngine.OpenDatabase("C:\TempRich1\db1.mdb")
    Set rst = dbs.OpenRecordset(strSQL, dbOpenDynaset)
    If rst.EOF Then
        MsgBox "No Data"
        Exit Sub
    End If
    Do
        i = i + 1
        Cells(i, 1).Value = rst!City
        rst.MoveNext
    Loop Until rst.EOF
    
    rst.Close
    Set rst = Nothing
    dbs.Close
    Set dbs = Nothing
End Sub
