Hi all
I am working on some management accounts but the end user has poor
excel/access skills so I need to automate everything.
The current set up is a query in access that is exported manually to excel
and then used to create a pivot table.
Every month the data is exported again and the pivot table range is updated
to take into account the new rows.
I would like to be able - from excel - to just refresh the data through a
button led macro or autorefresh by having a direct link between excel and
access.
------
The obvious choice was to use the import external data function in excel and
"rewrite" my query in "Microsoft query", but I can't get MS query to run an
IF function.
My IF function in Access is the following:
Amounts: IIf([Analysis]="A - Overheads",-[Amount]*[Allocation rate],-[Amount])
In advance, Thank you
