Access VBA How to add new sheets to excel? - excel

Question

I am running a few modules of code in access and am writing data into
Excel. When I write the first time, data gets written properly. But again
when I try, the new data is written on top of the old data. What should I do to
insert a new sheet?
My existing code is
Dim objexcel As Excel.Application
Dim wbexcel As Excel.Workbook
Dim wbExists As Boolean
Dim objSht As Excel.Worksheet
Dim objRange As Excel.Range
Set objexcel = CreateObject("excel.Application")
On Error GoTo Openwb
wbExists = False
Set wbexcel = objexcel.Workbooks.Open("C:\REPORT1.xls")
Set objSht = wbexcel.Worksheets("Sheet1")
objSht.Activate
wbExists = True
Openwb:
On Error GoTo 0
If Not wbExists Then
objexcel.Workbooks.Add
Set wbexcel = objexcel.ActiveWorkbook
Set objSht = wbexcel.Worksheets("Sheet1")
End If

Answer 1

I think that the following code should do what you want. It's very similar to yours, except it uses the return values from the .Add methods to get the objects you want.
Public Sub YourSub()
Dim objexcel As Excel.Application
Dim wbexcel As Excel.Workbook
Dim wbExists As Boolean
Set objexcel = CreateObject("excel.Application")
'This is a bad way of handling errors. We should'
'instead check for the file existing, having correct'
'permissions, and so on, and actually stop the process'
'if an unexpected error occurs.'
On Error GoTo Openwb
wbExists = False
Set wbexcel = objexcel.Workbooks.Open("C:\REPORT1.xls")
wbExists = True
Openwb:
On Error GoTo 0
If Not wbExists Then
Set wbexcel = objexcel.Workbooks.Add()
End If
CopyToWorkbook wbexcel
EndSub
Private Sub CopyToWorkbook(objWorkbook As Excel.Workbook)
Dim newWorksheet As Excel.Worksheet
set newWorksheet = objWorkbook.Worksheets.Add()
'Copy stuff to the worksheet here'
End Sub
