    Hi, this is probably a basic question for some of guru's out there. But I'm trying to migrate data (2,500 records) from an MS Access database to an MS Excel database and also to a inhouse database. Would any one know of any VBA code I could use to migrate this data to both packages? Thanks! :-)

    Hi, easiest way to get data into excel is to use a query on one of your sheets that will refresh on open. If you want to use vba you can use AODB to get a recordset and the copyfromrecordset method. In terms of your inhouse database you will need to find out what import functionality this has and the necessary file format.

    Regards
