No reply so far:banghead:
Just to get it in place, remember, it's only volunteers here, not employees where you can demand an answer in a short space of time. And 1 hour and 10 minutes is not that long.
You might have used the time to describe what you have tried and what error you've got. :rolleyes:
So, where does it fail, (code line, comment out your error handling) and what is the error message?

Dear sir;

Thanks for your reply.

First all note few important points.
my project is to export data into word file. For other fields you would see my above code. data is correctly exporting into word file.

I have placed an excel file as attachment in a field
now through vba code i want to add table which should be copy from excel file and paste it in my word file.

i have obtained code from following file
thespreadsheetguru.com/blog/2014/5/22/copy-paste-an-excel-table-into-microsoft-word-with-vba[/url]

i could not succeed to call attached excel file, copy data and paste as table it into word file (remember word file is open and table is open). what code i should place in vba that may able me to do so.

I 'll be very thankful to you if you or any access expert could help me.

Hi

Am I understanding your problem correctly ?

a) You want to use Access to open an Excel file
b) Then use Dynamic Data Exchange to transfer data in the Excel worksheet into Word

You can use the code below to open Excel and copy the contents of a worksheet to the clipboard which you can then paste into word

Code:
Rem *********************************
Rem Open Excel Workbook
Rem *********************************
    
    Dim WB As Object
    Dim WS As Object
    Dim XL As Object
    
    Set WB = GetObject("Path and filename to your Excel Workbook.xlsx")
    Set WS = WB.Worksheets(1) ' Alter if not sheet 1 
    Set XL = WB.Application ' identify Excel application
    
Rem *********************************
Rem Make things visible
Rem *********************************

    XL.visible = true
 
    XL.Windows(WB.Name).visible = true
    
    WS.Usedrange.Copy
 
Rem *********************************
Rem Paste into word at the correct point in the Document
Rem *********************************

   ' add your own code here

Rem *********************************
Rem Close Workbook and quit Excel
Rem *********************************

    XL.DisplayAlerts = False
    WB.Close
    XL.DisplayAlerts = True
    XL.Quit

In my following code i will use

As my excel file is stored in field name "table" which i am calling through variable "tabl"

Shall i use your recommended code as

Set WB = GetObject(tabl)

Am i correct?



My code is

Dim d As Database
Dim rs1 As Recordset
Dim dept As Field
Dim head As Field
Dim obs As Field
Dim tabl As field
Dim rimp As Field
Dim ratg As Field


Set dbs1 = CurrentDb()
Set rs1 = dbs1.OpenRecordset("MySelectedObservations")
Set dept = rs1.Fields("Department_Name")
Set head = rs1.Fields("Observation_Heading")
Set obs = rs1.Fields("Observation_Details")
Set tabl = rsl.Fields("Table")

You need to post the value of your variable "tabl" so that I can see what it contains

if your Excel file is in OLE Object field, you need to extract it first before you can use it on your current code.
