Import data from web site in MS Access
I want to write an import function for importing data from a website into a ms access database. The original data is stored in a mysql database and is available via a remote text file (csv). So all I want is to access this remote file and read it in vba. The code I use is below, but it seems that references are missing. Don't know which reference ActiveXperts.Http needs. Could anybody help?
Thx Ste开发者_开发百科ve
Dim objHttp
Dim strUrl
Dim strData
' Create a HTTP instance
Set objHttp = CreateObject("ActiveXperts.Http")
' Write some information to console
MsgBox "ActiveSocket " & objHttp.Version & " demo."
MsgBox "Expiration date: " & objHttp.ExpirationDate & vbCrLf
Do
strUrl = InputBox("Enter a URL", "Input", "www.activexperts.com/products")
Loop Until strUrl <> ""
objHttp.LogFile = "C:\HttpLog.txt"
objHttp.Connect (strUrl)
If (objHttp.LastError <> 0) Then
MsgBox "Error " & objHttp.LastError & ": " & objHttp.GetErrorDescription(objHttp.LastError)
Else
strData = objHttp.ReadData
If (objHttp.LastError <> 0) Then
MsgBox "Error " & objHttp.LastError & ": " & objHttp.GetErrorDescription(objHttp.LastError)
Else
MsgBox strData
End If
objHttp.Disconnect
MsgBox "Disconnect."
End If
MsgBox "Ready."
This tutorial says that it needs ActiveSocket 2.4 Type Library
.
(the tutorial is for VB 5/6 and not VBA, but the reference stuff should be exactly the same)
