Hi mubi_masti...

the problem is the name of the field "Date" in your database table. When generating the INSERT statement, the SQL can not be executed as Date is also a function in Access. The simplest way to resolve the problem is IMHO just renaming the field "Date" to something like "myDate" both in the Access database and in the Excel file.

Regards :-)
