[AccessD] Importing from Excel/Transpose

Again, I'd use a bit of brute force DAO code since it's only seven fields:

openrecordset(targettable)
openrecordset(sourcetable)

targettable.addnew

targettable!field1=sourcetable!field
sourcetable.movenext
targettable!field2=sourcetable!field
sourcetable.movenext
targettable!field3=sourcetable!field
sourcetable.movenext
targettable!field4=sourcetable!field
sourcetable.movenext
targettable!field5=sourcetable!field
sourcetable.movenext
targettable!field6=sourcetable!field
sourcetable.movenext
targettable!field7=sourcetable!field
targettable.update

sourcetable.close
targettable.close

msgbox "Done!"

Not elegant but effective and only takes a few minutes to code.
