This might be a help for getting data to and from Excel and Access and how
to UPDATE records:
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 and add data to it,
* select data from a table,
* 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.

I was wondering if there is code I could write that
updates a table in Access through Excel. I have the exact
setup of the tabel in Excel. It is only 1 column
called "Job Number" and I have a matching table in
Access. Iwant the user to enter a job number and when he
hits a command button, I want the code to update the
Access table with what he has entered. Is that possible?
