Export MSAccess table to CSV

Luca Tramontana 81

Dear all,

from an MSAccess Database table I need to extract the content to a csv file.

As this csv file needs to be imported in a SQLite table and especially for the Date field the format must be YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS (like 2025-11-27 00:00:00 NOT 2025-11-27 0:00:00); I need to know the correct setting to do it.

I have tried to set the csv export as below:

but the final date value field will be like this: YYYY-MM-DD H:MM:SS

Any idea?

Thanks

Try creating a query in MS Access that formats the date fields correctly for SQLite. For example, if your table is ACTIVATED_TABLE_2021_01 and the date fields are Expiration_Date and Activated_Date, you can use:

SELECT 
    Warranty_Code,
    Warranty_PN,
    Warranty_Descr,
    Serialnumber_Or,
    Product_Purchase,
    Brand_Of_FG,
    AGS_SO_Number,
    Format([Expiration_Date], "yyyy-mm-dd hh:nn:ss") AS Expiration_Date,
    Format([Activated_Date], "yyyy-mm-dd hh:nn:ss") AS Activated_Date
FROM 
    ACTIVATED_TABLE_2021_01;
