    Very Slow performance over a network (different cities)

    MajP, thanks for your suggestions. The thing is that I am using Excel as frontend, and Access as backend (access only contains certain data) Only part of the data on the Excel sheet is saved/retrieved/updated etc in Access BE. So (I assume) synching access db cannot be done from Excel?

Also I...

    How to display in a query only certain records based on a date

    the reason is because as soon as a new price is received, the price substitutes the old price For example, on the 1st oct I receive this rate: 1, PEPE JEANS, 01OCT09,31DEC09,$1000 Then on the 10th October I receive a new price (same supplier, same validto date): 3, PEPE JEANS...

    How to display in a query only certain records based on a date

    Hi there, thanks for your input. The option you mentioned doesn't work unfortunately. The problem is the VALIDTO >=mydate As per my example, note that the Validto date is always the same for all rows (31.12.09) Therefore if mydate = 15/10/09, using your query I will get 4 results back: 1, PEPE...

    Excel stops working while using Filecopy

    Hi there I have a VBA routine which copies files from my local server to several servers using FileCopy. For some reason the routine seems to "lock" Excel, and if you try to click on the Excel page, it goes blank (although it appears the processing still happening on the background) If you...

    SkipVought: Yes, I only wanted the filtered records into the array, however the loop not longer works... If no filter is applied before transfering sheet data to datarange array, the loop works fine (but much slower than I need because it contains too much data) Gavona: thanks for your idea...
