Imprt data from MDB file

I have some code to import from a MDB file. I want to make it variable, i.e. use a excel cell to set the path of the MDB file. I cannot figure out how to do this.

My code:

Code:

---

Sub MDB_DATA()
' MDB_DATA Macro
ActiveWorkbook.Queries.Add name:="tblStructures", Formula:= _
        "let" & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & "    Source = Access.Database(File.Contents(""C:\Structures.mdb""), [CreateNavigationProperties=true])," & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & "    _tblStructures = Source{[Schema="""",Item=""tblStructures""]}[Data]," & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & "    #""Removed Other Columns"" = Table.SelectColumns(_tblStructures,{""FileName"", ""LiveLoadInc""})" & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & "in" & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & "    #""Removed Other Columns"""
    ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets.Add
    With ActiveSheet.ListObjects.Add(SourceType:=0, Source:= _
        "OLEDB;Provider=Microsoft.Mashup.OleDb.1;Data Source=$Workbook$;Location=tblStructures;Extended Properties=""""" _
        , Destination:=Range("$A$1")).QueryTable
        .CommandType = xlCmdSql
        .CommandText = Array("SELECT * FROM [tblStructures]")
        .RowNumbers = False
        .FillAdjacentFormulas = False
        .PreserveFormatting = True
        .RefreshOnFileOpen = False
        .BackgroundQuery = True
        .RefreshStyle = xlInsertDeleteCells
        .SavePassword = False
        .SaveData = True
        .AdjustColumnWidth = True
        .RefreshPeriod = 0
        .PreserveColumnInfo = True
        .ListObject.DisplayName = "tblStructures"
        .Refresh BackgroundQuery:=False
    End With
End Sub

Hi there,

Maybe something like the below:

Code:

---

Sub MDB_DATA()
' MDB_DATA Macro


Dim fPath As String
fPath = "C:\Users\NoName\Desktop\test.mdb"


ActiveWorkbook.Queries.Add Name:="tblStructures", Formula:= _
        "let" & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & "    Source = Access.Database(File.Contents(""" & fPath & """), [CreateNavigationProperties=true])," & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & "    _tblStructures = Source{[Schema="""",Item=""tblStructures""]}[Data]," & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & "    #""Removed Other Columns"" = Table.SelectColumns(_tblStructures,{""FileName"", ""LiveLoadInc""})" & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & "in" & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & "    #""Removed Other Columns"""
    ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets.Add
    With ActiveSheet.ListObjects.Add(SourceType:=0, Source:= _
        "OLEDB;Provider=Microsoft.Mashup.OleDb.1;Data Source=$Workbook$;Location=tblStructures;Extended Properties=""""" _
        , Destination:=Range("$A$1")).QueryTable
        .CommandType = xlCmdSql
        .CommandText = Array("SELECT * FROM [tblStructures]")
        .RowNumbers = False
        .FillAdjacentFormulas = False
        .PreserveFormatting = True
        .RefreshOnFileOpen = False
        .BackgroundQuery = True
        .RefreshStyle = xlInsertDeleteCells
        .SavePassword = False
        .SaveData = True
        .AdjustColumnWidth = True
        .RefreshPeriod = 0
        .PreserveColumnInfo = True
        .ListObject.DisplayName = "tblStructures"
        .Refresh BackgroundQuery:=False
    End With
End Sub

Just refer fPath to a cell value than contains a path, like the below:

Code:

---

fPath = Range("A1").value

---

Hope this helps
