所有数据操作都可以通过SharePoint 列出Web服务命名为 lists.asmx 。你必须调用这个web服务。例如 UpdateListItems 方法应该做什么MS Access现在。

您可以使用一个选项访问列表Web服务，是Microsoft SOAP Toolkit必须作为办公组件安装（从来没有这样做，但这里是一篇描述它的文章： http://oreilly.com/pub/h/1306

另一个选项是使用MSXML库（始终可用）并发送SOAP请求作为简单的HTTP请求，然后将结果解析为xml。有一篇文章显示了如何做到这一点： http://blogs.msdn.com/b/jpsanders/archive/2007/06/14/how- to-send-soap-call-using-msxml-replace-stk.aspx

I have an Excel-based application that gathers some user input, and makes some calculations based on that user input. The application itself doesn't store any of the user input or calculations; currently whenever a user runs the application, it sends the data to an Access database and inserts a row into an Access table xlTable that's linked to a Sharepoint list. The relevant code is:

sub sendToSharepoint(userName as string, folderPath as string, calculatedValue as long)

dim db as DAO.database
dim insertStr as string

'open connection to Access db
set db=OpenDatabase(myDatabasePath)

'build insert string
insertStr="insert into xlTable (userName,folderPath,calculatedValue,workDate) values (""" & userName & """,""" & folderPath & """," & calculatedValue & ","#" & Now & "#)"

'insert values into xlTable, which adds them to the Sharepoint list
db.execute insertStr,dbFailonError

end sub

Because we've had some issues with Access disconnecting from Sharepoint and therefore not populating the list, and in general want to simplify our data transfer process, I'd like to send the data directly from Excel to Sharepoint without using Access. I've read some stuff on SO about using Web Services to update Sharepoint, but I haven't been able to figure out how these work exactly, or how to implement them in VBA.

What info would I need about my Sharepoint list to manipulate it from Excel VBA similar to the above code? Do I need to add any references?

All data manipulations can be done through SharePoint Lists Web service named lists.asmx. You have to call into that web sevice. For instance UpdateListItems method should do what MS Access does now.

One option you can use to access the lists web sevice, is "Microsoft SOAP Toolkit" which has to be installed as office component (never done that, but here is an article describing it: http://oreilly.com/pub/h/1306

Another option is to use MSXML library (which is always available) and sending SOAP requests as simple HTTP requests. Then parsing the results as xml. There is an article showing examples how to do it: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/jpsanders/archive/2007/06/14/how-to-send-soap-call-using-msxml-replace-stk.aspx
