Hello,

Let me start off saying that I'm not working off vba code that I wrote myself, so I don't fully understand the context or purpose of all of the details.

I'm basically running a data import macro that runs some inputs through an excel model and then imports the output through an excel sheet into access.

I think I'm able to get through to DoCmd.RunSavedImportExport "np_CoverageDetail" since I am able to successfully input the table, but the code does not add an account_ID number like it's supposed to do after.

I will also post the code for the two export processes that are running. One is to collect the data the next is to clean it for importing into access. I know the 'exportdata' function runs correctly for both 'np_coveragedetail' and variables because I break the code in the middle and it has created the correct table, but the second part 'exportdatacleanup' seems to only work for the 'np_coveragedetail' tab as it correctly imports this table, but not the 'variables' tab.

The code breaks after it finishes importing the 'np_coveragedetail' table and gives the error message above. Error 3709 the search key was not found. I don't know how to interpret this message and it seems it's not clear cut from google searching it.

Code:
Sub fileImportProcess()

Control Word Wrap
Press Alt+Enter to move to a new row in a cell. Lets you control where the words wrap.
Where exactly in the code do you get the error?

I can't pinpoint where the error is coming from, but since I successfully am able to import the np_Coveragedetail data table from excel in access with DoCmd.RunSavedImportExport "np_CoverageDetail" and nothing else is completed after, I would guess something to do with this, or the next saved importexport for "variables" is causing the problem

You should be able to step through any of this code and report on which line is raising the error.
First create a backup copy of the target table if you're going to play with table design as suggested in this post. lf one or more of the target table fields is a memo (long text) type with an index, try removing the index. Also check that you're not trying to import a spreadsheet column name that starts with one or more spaces.

The code is odd looking and has some potential pitfalls:
Dim acctName, polPer, uw, fName, fModDate, fPath As String
- fPath is the only string variable in this line. The rest are variants. Same goes for any other multi-variable declaration on one line that does not explicitly declare EACH variable. This can cause problems but I doubt it is your current issue, unless perhaps it is due to wb1 being a variant when the code is trying to treat it as an object.

This does not look right:
Code:
"UPDATE np_CoverageDetail SET np_CoverageDetail.account_ID = " & _
            """" & accountID & """" &
Substituting 123 for accountID, I see it being translated to
Code:
UPDATE np_CoverageDetail SET np_CoverageDetail.account_ID = ""123""
which, even if you removed one double quote on each side, you'd be treating this as a string value when (if I understand the post) it's a number.
There are other examples. Unless you are certain that this works, you should assign the sql statement to a declared variable (Dim strSql As String), step through until the next line after the concatenation is complete for the variable, then output the result in the immediate window (?strSql), hit Enter and copy/paste the sql into a new query in sql view and run it. I always assign sql to variables so that they can be tested. Given that this approach is repeated, I also wonder if checking for Not Null has been mistaken anywhere for empty strings - they are not the same thing.

I also thought the string concatenation looks wrong - but how did it work before (assuming your inherited code worked for the person who wrote it? Weird. And ugly the way it's written.
