Is there a way to take data from an excel spreadsheet and drop it into a
microsoft access database? (Other than copying and pasting field by
field)

From Access:
File-Get External Data. Pick your spreadsheet.

Or , if you select 'Link Table' from the same menu you will have a view of
the Excel spreadsheet that is up to date at all times and can be used in
queries/reports/forms in Access

This might be a help for getting data to and from Excel and Access: It
includes examples of using variables in SQL queries.
http://www.bygsoftware.com/examples/sql.html

Or you can get there from the "Excel with Access Databases" section on page:
http://www.bygsoftware.com/examples/examples.htm

It demonstrates how to use SQL in Excel's VBA to:

* create a database,
* create a table
* insert records
* select records,
* update records,
* delete records,
* delete a table,
* delete a database.

DAO and ADO files available.

You can also download the demonstration file called "excelsql.zip".

The code is open and commented.
