Hey thanks Marcus and Blue.

I am beginning to realise why it is akward to go from Excel to Access, however the calculations etc I need to do are HUGE, and I need to use Excel to do those calcs. Point is, I need to calculate answers for 40,000 race meetings, appending to Access the results after each one. Big task, I have set it all up, I just need the code to automate the sending of the answers to Access.
