VBA - working with data videos | Excel VBA Part 56.5 - Basic ADO Commands with SQL Server
Posted by Andrew Gould on 26 June 2019
This video shows you how to use ADO commands to modify data in a SQL Server database. You'll learn how to use the INSERT INTO, UPDATE and DELETE statements with an ADO command object to affect records.
See our full range of VBA training resources, or test your knowledge of VBA with one of our VBA skills assessment tests.
This video has the following accompanying files:
| File name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 01 Create Movies Database 2016.sql | SQL query | |
| 02 Create List Actors Procedure.sql | SQL query | |
| ADO Basic Commands.xlsm | Excel workbook with macros |

Making a video bigger
You can increase the size of your video to make it fill the screen like this:
Play your video (the icons shown won't appear until you do), then click on the full screen icon which appears as shown at its bottom right-hand corner.
When you've finished viewing a video in full screen mode, just press the Esc key to return to normal view.
Improving the quality of a video
To improve the quality of a video, first click on the Settings icon:
Make sure you're playing your video so that the icons shown appear, then click on this gear icon at the bottom right-hand corner.
Choose to change the video quality:
Click on Quality as shown to bring up the submenu.
The higher the number you choose, the better will be your video quality (but the slower the connection speed):
Don't choose the HD option unless you have a fast enough connection speed to support it!
Is your Wise Owl speaking too slowly (or too quickly)? You can also use the Settings menu above to change your playback speed.
Hi Andy,
Firstly, these video tutorials are second to none! You and your team should be very proud!
What would be the best way to add bulk data from an Excel table via VBA to an SQL table. Would one need to loop over each cell and export to SQL using that method or is there a more effecient way like being able to export the entire table (or say a CSV file) in a more direct way?
Many thanks.
Michael.
Thanks Michael!
For bulk inserts from Excel to SQL Server you might be better off trying one of the techniques shown here https://stackoverflow.com/questions/52897825/insert-into-statement-from-excel-to-sql-server-table-using-vba
Alternatively, SQL Server Integration Services is designed for exactly this sort of task! We have a few videos on SSIS which you can see here https://www.wiseowl.co.uk/integration-services/videos/ssis-basics/
I hope that helps!
