I work in a real estae brokerage firm which relies heavily on Excel.
Currently, we have maxed out spreadsheets which we are looking to
transfer into Access. How can we do so efficiently and is that even
feasible?

' exports data from the active worksheet to a table in an Access database
' this procedure must be edited before use
Dim cn As ADODB.Connection, rs As ADODB.Recordset, r As Long
' connect to the Access database
Set cn = New ADODB.Connection

Hi Nancy,

Are you just looking to transfer the data into Access or re-deploy your
application into Access? If it is just transfer the data then the standard
table import/link functions very well if you have "clean" data. You can then
just build a simple front end in Excel to manage the data in Access.
