Import xls files in access table

I want to import frequently an excel format file in an access table. Is it
possible to do this with a macro/module (VBA ?). I think it is for daily use
more easy than with the standard import function . When it is possible can
you show me an example.

Question: Does the text file have to mirror the alignment of the table columns e.g. must field1, field2, filed3 etc correspond to col1, col2, col3 on the table? or can I state somewhere which columns in the text file correspond to which table columns. I actually need col1, col2, col5 and col6 from the text file to populate...

I've been trying to use the Access Import Wizard to expedite importing data into my mdb. The nice thing about the wizard is that I can import from different file formats - txt, xls, even Outlook - and dump everything into a table. The problem is once I have the data imported into a new table, I can't do much with it. If I try to run an Append query and insert data from the new table into an existing table, the query fails - "Error...
