[AccessD] Excel to Access

In general the way I do this is to have a hidden "flat file" sheet in Excel
that links to the data to be imported on the other sheets. Then you can link
to the sheet and create a query to import the data or write code to read the
flat file "records". If the process involves more than one file I save them
all to a folder and have my code open and read each of the files. If you
want to describe the format your client's data is in (ie in "records" on a
sheet, spread randomly on various sheets, etc) I can help you figure out the
most appropriate way to load it into Access.

Could someone point me to or provide a nice way to import Excel data in
Access on a daily basis.

A potential clients uses Excel daily to calculate some stuff about Mutual
funds.  They then want to send that data to Access at the end of every day
in order to have a history of the funds.

Thanks.
