Trying to automate an import process.
Could some one share the code to export all the data from a specific Excel
sheet to an existing Access database table?

Thanks!

Does not record as part of auto record macro. I put in
for help "access" and came up with this to begin with,
which indicates a need to open the access file in a
specific mode to write to it. I think you could do an
append from the clipboard, but I don't know access very
well. Maybe this will get you started in the right
direction.

Open Statement
Enables input/output (I/O) to a file.
Syntax
Open pathname For mode [Access access] [lock] As [#]
filenumber [Len=reclength]
The Open statement syntax has these parts:

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 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".
