In this Microsoft Access tutorial, I'm going to teach you how to import data from a text file into your database. We will use the file that we exported in yesterday's video. For the advanced VBA users, I'll demonstrate how to accomplish this with a single-click solution. We will also work with a delete query and an append query, and include a 'Are you sure?' message box for user confirmation. Silver members and up get access to an Extended Cut of this video. Members will once again see how to use TransferText to import the data with more advanced options in VBA.
