You can import the *data* in the Excel spreadsheet into an Access table... but
be aware that Access is emphatically NOT "Excel on steroids". It's an
altogether different program, with different conventions, different forms,
different programing and different assumptions.

In other words you can import the data, but your Excel form, all your
calculations, and any printout reports will need to be rethought and redone.
