Not sure if two questions are allowed in one post, but here it goes!

1) I have created an excel template with several spaces into which I want to
import data from MS Acess database. The amount of rows used would be of
varying length each time, as the database is updated. I want to set it up so
that when the data is imported, it will not overwrite the existing template
with the extra data, but instead will insert new rows, and "push" the lower
parts of the template down further on the page.

2) Also, in setting up my query, I have two criteria cells in which the same
datum CAN be (but not always IS) located. I want to tell the query to return
ALL of the records that contain same datum in EITHER cell, but ONLY those
records. Is this possible?

2) SELECT... FROM.... WHERE FieldA = Forms![MyForm]!
[ControlName1OnForm] OR FieldB = Forms![MyForm]![ControlName1OnForm];

1) You could use the CopyFromRecordset method... I think there's an
example on www.mvps.org/Access. Also check Ken Snell's website.
