  • Importing data from large (840MB) XML file into Excel 2007

    The State of WA posts .xml data extracts each week. Too bad they are so large I think I'll need a Cray to open it. Even trying to map and then import just one element, I get an XML parse error. Reason: "Not enough storage is available to complete this operation..." I have at least 250 gigs...

  • Data Sources in Excel with VISTA

    Hi Got a problem with Excel running on Vista and data sources, we have a set of excel spreadsheets which run fine on an XP system connected to our main SeaChange data base (UNIX) and Microsoft Query works fine as well so that we can change the data query.

  • MSQuery Parameter in WHERE to default to All (including null)

    I need an Excel parameter prompt where the user can get a list of ALL items or only the KVI items. I've tried WHERE Unit = [Enter Unit] OR [Enter Unit] IS NULL.

  • Formulas in hidden columns not copying down when updating Queries

    I'm using MSQUERY to pull data from our business system so I can do further summary and evaluation. I have multiple columns of formulas to the right of the query.

  • Re: Display the Edit Query Dialog

    Hi Sam, Yes, that sounds like a lot of effort. Lifting a finger and all... You could code something that retrieves data from the other workbook without using the query editor. Basically an Open-Copy-Paste-Close action would do the trick. A userform could be used to create some flexibility for parameter...

  • Passing a list from Excel to MS Query

    I've tried this several ways, but no success so far. Is it possible to pass multiple values from an Excel cell as parameters in a Data query? In MS Query, this looks like "IN (1,2,3,4,5)". Or, calling a parameter looks like "[List]" which can be tied to one worksheet cell. However...
