Thank you very myuch for this excellent video. It is such interesting. But I have a question, I want to export a table from access into excel but with some protection setup, to make the file in read mode only and allow filtering and sorting. I will really like your feedback!

Sir how to one column lock for edit in export

[jeanmcgowan]

Thank you.. just starting to dive into the tutorial. I have one field that is set to 5 decimal places in access when exported to excel it shortens it to 2 decimal places. The data is stored correctly so I can change the format but why does it not just leave it at 5 decimal places.

Hi

Just a few questions if you don’t mind answering in regards to Microsoft Access. I was wondering could if its is possible to make;
• Microsoft Access as a document manger, viewing word, excel, PowerPoint and PDF files, on a business SharePoint site while having the tables situated in data verse as a backend source.
• While doing the above and having mail merge templates within the said directory one SharePoint?
• Having a Treeview, showing the directories, and files of the above in a listbox in which you can click and open to either edit, read, make a new one (e.g. word, excel spreadsheet or PowerPoint slide) and incorporate mail merge tags.

I export Data using the transporter, and I can bring him back too.😊

This worked but it didn't filter -- exported all the records not just the filtered. How do you fix that?
