The problem is that I cannot get the name of the table that was entered into the variable, "tblName", which will be used instead, I get a correctly named database with a table named "tblName".
Is there a way to raise the name in "tblName" or somehow change the name after creating it with the name that the user enters?
Private Sub CreateDatabaseFromExcel()
Dim dbConnectStr As String
Dim Catalog As Object
Dim cnt As ADODB.Connection
Dim dbPath As String
Dim tblName As String
'Set database name in the Excel Sheet
dbPath = ActiveSheet.Range("B1").Value 'Database Name
tblName = ActiveSheet.Range("B2").Value 'Table Name
dbConnectStr = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & dbPath & ";"
'Create new database using name entered in Excel Cell ("B1")
Set Catalog = CreateObject("ADOX.Catalog")
Catalog.Create dbConnectStr
Set Catalog = Nothing
'Connect to database and insert a new table
Set cnt = New ADODB.Connection
With cnt
.Open dbConnectStr
.Execute "CREATE TABLE tblName ([BankName] text(50) WITH Compression, " & _
"[RTNumber] text(9) WITH Compression, " & _
"[AccountNumber] text(10) WITH Compression, " & _
"[Address] text(150) WITH Compression, " & _
"[City] text(50) WITH Compression, " & _
"[ProvinceState] text(2) WITH Compression, " & _
"[Postal] text(6) WITH Compression, " & _
"[AccountAmount] decimal(6))"
End With
Set cnt = Nothing
End Sub
