Hi I wonder if anyone can help me. I'm pretty new to VBA and have been doing some browsing on the net but I haven't been able to find what i'm looking for.
Basically, im looking to write a macro that appends data in an Excel '07 spreadsheet to an Access table.So far the closest i've I found the following code on MSDN.
As I mentioned i'm pretty new to VBA so i'm not sure how much the syntax has changed over the years.

Dim db As database
Dim rs As recordset
Dim XLTable As TableDef
Dim strSQL As String
'Open the Microsoft Access database.
Set db = OpenDatabase("C:\MSOffice\Access\Samples\Northwind.mdb")
'Attach the Microsoft Excel 5.0 table "MyTable" from the file
'Book1.xls to the Microsoft Access database.
Set XLTable = db.CreateTableDef("Temp")
'In Microsoft Excel 97, use
'
' XLTable.Connect = "Excel 8.0;DATABASE=...
'
'The rest of the line is the same.
'
XLTable.Connect = "Excel 5.0;DATABASE=C:\My Documents\Book1.xls"
XLTable.SourceTableName = "MyTable"
db.TableDefs.Append XLTable
'Run the append query that adds all of the records from MyTable
'to the Shippers table.
strSQL = "Insert into Shippers Select * from Temp"
'Execute the SQL statement.
db.Execute strSQL
'Remove the attached table because it's no longer needed.
db.TableDefs.Delete "Temp"
db.Close
