Exporting Access data to Excel

  • 14 years ago

    In an Access form I have a button to export data from a query to an Excel file:

    Dim objExcel As DAO.Recordset
    DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acExport, acSpreadsheetTypeExcel9, "Req_ImportALlToExcel", "C:\File.xls"

    It creates an Excel file with the proper data.  My question is what to do to open it at the same time without exiting Access?

     

    Thanks
