    If Not PrepXL(XLFile) Then Exit Function
             
    DoCmd.SetWarnings False
    'empty the AchieversImportWork table'
    strSQL = "DELETE AchieversImportWork.* FROM AchieversImportWork;"
    DoCmd.RunSQL (strSQL)
    
    'Append to STR fields in the AchieversImportWork table'
    strSQL = "INSERT INTO AchieversImportWork ( LoginIDStr, LastStr, FirstStr, PointsEarnedStr, AwardDateStr, AwardLevelStr, uploaddateStr ) " _
        & "SELECT AcheiversImport.[Login ID], AcheiversImport.LAST, AcheiversImport.FIRST, AcheiversImport.[POINTS EARNED], AcheiversImport.[Award Date], AcheiversImport.[AWARD LEVEL], AcheiversImport.[upload date] " _
        & "FROM AcheiversImport;"

Excel Facts

Which lookup functions find a value equal or greater than the lookup value?
MATCH uses -1 to find larger value (lookup table must be sorted ZA). XLOOKUP uses 1 to find values greater and does not need to be sorted.
Hello jojo52479,

When you encounter errors you should provide the error number, error description, and the line where the error occurs.
