Help with import data from a text file via sql into a table

26
I wish to import some data I have in some (tab delited) files that I would like to import into certain tables in my access database.
I would like to import them using SQL only.
I know there are other ways to import the data, but I want to be able to do this with sql.

I belive it may be an insert into statement.

Thanks for you help.
