RE: importing data from excel

Hi Olivia

To import information to Access from Excel simply go to:

FILE > GET EXTERNAL DATA > IMPORT

Select the file that you want to import.
Step through the Import Wizard.

If you have any questions about this, feel free to ask further questions.

Regards

Richard

 

Access tip:

Deleting duplicate records from a table

You cannot delete records tables where there duplicate records. A way around this is to create a new table which wont hold the duplicates. and then deleting the old table.

1. Use a make-table query based on this table only. IMPORTANT - Ensure that you include all of the fields from your original table or you may loose data.

2. Open the query's property sheet by using VIEW, QUERY, PROPERTIES, and set the Unique Values property to Yes

3. Because you have selected the Unique Values to Yes when you run the query, Access creates a new table without duplicate records. You can now delete the old table and rename the new one.
