import longfilename.DBF
Hi Guys, 
 
I have recently reinstalled access after a computer crash and I can no 
 
longer import .DBF files that I have been using for years. 
 
I have found that renaming them into the 8.3 format allows me to 
 
import them however, there is critical information in the long file 
 
name that I manipulate through VBA. 
 
Could anyone tell me if there is an addin or update that allows long 
 
filename support i.e. 12.3 
 
I must have had this installed before but I cannot remember doing it.

extracting data from a series of formatted spreadsheets that are submitted 
 
from different divisions (budgeting data) to new spreadsheet files that are 
 
saved/closed and then imported.

How to create a local index
Access 2003:  Problem:  I cannot append to a linked Excel spreadsheet.  From 
 
what I've read in the posts, that's because there's no primary key.  The link 
 
wizard did not prompt me for a primary key, so I suspect the answer lies in 
 
creating a "local index".  How do I do that?  (Or any other suggestions you 
 
may have.) 
 
Thanks,

Imported numbers from Excel change to scientific notation
While in Excel I have changed my 10 digit account numbers into text format, 
 
and then I import them into Access.  Frequently, these numbers do not convert 
 
correctly.  They get converted into scientific notation and the trailing 
 
numbers are lost.  While converting Excel into Access, is there some way to 
 
keep all the digits intact?

Trying to import MS Access Cells to MS Excel.
I working on a project that uses single cell data for access to fill out 
 
single cells in Excel. Everytime I try and and add the "GET EXTERNAL DATA" to 
 
my Excel Template it wants to add the whole query rather then just single 
 
cell information. 
 
For example:   I have a job number and I want all the information for that 
 
job number to update my Excel Template Fields  such as PO Number, Customer, 
 
Deleviery Date? 
 
Does anyone have some input that they can give?

How do I identify the system id for a specific field?
We are trying to link AutoDesk Architectural 2006 to an Access mdb table. 
 
When we view the data in the database the information is in the correct sort 
 
order but when the drawing opens it seems to randomise the data.  Is there 
 
any way in which we can identify the system ID of the field and link to that 
 
so that the link is set more firmly?  Any ideas and help would be
