Hi

One-time thing?
Open your dbf-files with Excel. Create a new excel file. Transfer all data
from dbf-files into a worksheet in created Excel workbook (copy - paste).
When finished, save the Excel workbook and then import it into Access.

I have a situation where I need to import about 30 different .dbf files,
all located in one directory, to a single table in Access.

I know this can be done elegantly with a combobox and and button using
access forms but I just need a quick and dirty way of doing it without
all that time. I was looking into the TransferSpreadsheet but one it
only does one at a time and I certainly hope there is a easier way than
30 seperate TransferSpreadsheets. This is a one time needed thing which
is why I don't want to spend the time to make it all pretty. Any
suggestions on a quick fix will be appreciated.

Thanks,
NG
