Text file to Access 97 database

here is how you connect to a CSV text file:

Code:

---

'Uses ADO 2.1/5

    Dim cn As ADODB.Connection
    Dim rs As Recordset
   
    Set cn = New Connection
    Set rs = New Recordset
   
    'open connection to folder that contains the CSV file
    cn.Open "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:\;Extended Properties=Text;"
   
    'open the file
    rs.Open "select * from test.csv", cn
   
    'we have data
    MsgBox rs.Fields(1).Value

---

Just loop through your recordset and insert the values into your MS Access table (you'll have to create a separate conneciton, of course)

Tom's method will certainly work but you might want to take a look at Access's "TransferSpreadsheet Method" (if you have access installed search in help for the item in quotes).
