Hi all

I will like to change the Database and File name to be variable on the below code

Thanks in advance.

Rich (BB code):
Sub ImportCSVFile()
DeleteTable
'Browse for Folder
Dim selectedFolder
    With Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFolderPicker)
        .Show
        selectedFolder = .SelectedItems(1)
    End With
    'print to screen the address of folder selected
    'MsgBox (selectedFolder)

DoCmd.SetWarnings False
    DoCmd.RunSQL "SELECT * INTO CurrentData FROM [Text;DATABASE= & selectedFolder ;HDR=Yes].DennisReport.csv"
    'DoCmd.RunSQL "SELECT * INTO CurrentData FROM [Text;DATABASE=C:\Users\Hashiru\Desktop\Report Templates;HDR=Yes].DennisReport.csv"
DoCmd.SetWarnings True
End Sub
