Help INSERT INTO Statement, Using VB in Access 2003 Module

26 New Member
Hi
I have code below that enables a user to browse for an excel file, import the spreadsheet data, and dump it into a table . I keep receiving 3134 syntax error for "INSERT INTO" statement. Could someone please help me out? Also when I copy and paste this code into a module in a new database, I get an error message for the "Dim dlgPickFiles As Office.FileDial og" statement. I didn't get this error message in the old database, and don't understand why the code for browsing for data runs in the old database and not in the new database?

Thanks

Hi
(...) message for the "Dim dlgPickFiles As Office.FileDial og" statement. I didn't get this error message in the old database, and don't understand why the code for browsing for data runs in the old database and not in the new database?

Thanks
Some VBA versions dont allow you to declare some kind of objects, if you're not using the name, then just put the file dialog in the with:

With Application.Fil eDialog(msoFile DialogFilePicke r)
.filters(...)
.selection(...)
end with

That'll do

What about the syntax error for the "INSERT INTO" statement?

Is it possible you misspelled a field name? Or perhaps the import is not setting the field names correctly.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
