They can be integrated and work together in many ways. Data can be copied between them, or imported and exported between them and links created between them. A lot of the functions found in one, can also be found in the other. There are lots of things that both can do.

When importing an access database table Excel does what?

When you data from Access to Excel a copy of the data is created in Excel?

You can copy data from Access and paste it directly into Excel. From a table or query, data can be selected and then copied and pasted into Excel. In that case, data changing in the original Access file will not change data in the Excel file. To do that there must be a link between the data. You can also import data from Access into Excel and from Excel into Access, again maintaining a link to the source if you want.


Is Microsoft Access better than Microsoft Excel?

Both Excel and Access are capable of doing a lot of things that the other can do. Excel is a spreadsheet application and Access is a database application, so they are used for different things. They are different kinds of applications so they cannot be compared in full, only on certain things. If you want to do a lot of databasing things, while you can do them in Excel, Access is better for it. If you are doing a lot of calculations, then Excel is better although Access can do calculations too. So it depends on what you want to do.


What is a formula in Microsoft Access?

Formulas enable you to do calculations. You can do them in Excel and in Access, along with other applications. You would more associate them with Excel than Access, but Access does have a lot of the functionality that Excel has to carry out calculations, including complex ones and ones that use built-in functions. In Excel you typically use cell references in formulas while in Access you use fields. So a formula to multiply two values could be like this in the two applications: Excel: =A2 * C2 Access: =Sales * Tax

Why do you need Microsoft Access especially if you have Microsoft Excel?

Microsoft Access is a database application and Microsoft Excel is a spreadsheet application, so they are two different kinds of application. There are things that both can do, but if you want to create a proper database, then Access is better than Excel. It has far more facilities for working with databases than Excel does. Because of that, it is simpler to do lots of things in Access than in Excel. If you want to create a spreadsheet, then that is what Excel is used for, though you can do a lot of things Excel does in Access. If you already have Excel and want to create databases, then you can, but you won't be able to do the really sophisticated things that Access can do and which a really good database needs, such as queries, reports, relationships etc. If you want a really good database that can do those things, then you need Access.


Which is easier Excel VBA or Access VBA?

I would say that there is no differences between Excel VBA and Access VBA. VBA is the acronym for visual basic for application and is the common language for the office suite. Excel vba gives you a native access to excel object (eg a worksheet, a cell, a range, etc.) but object of other applications can be made accessible via configuration (references). Access vba gives you a native access to access object.


Advantages software can Excel be integrated with Word?

Excel and Word can be integrated. You can have some of the spreadsheet appear as a table in Word. If you set a link between them, then when Excel updates, so will the Word document. Word does have the facilities to do its own calcuations in tables, but they are limited and so Excel is better. So if you want the figures in a Word document and to keep them up to date as they change in the Excel document, then a link is the way to do it. You would copy the data you want in Excel, and then do a Paste Link in the Word document.
