VB5/6 source code showing how to convert Jet to Excel Excel to Jet at:
http://www.smithvoice.com/vbda.htm
No automation of either, it's all SQL. Also see the other demo souce code at that page because converting from Jet to any ISAM or vice versa (or Excel to Lotus to HTML, etc) is all done the same way)
Hope it helps.

If you don't need to do this programmatically, you can simply open the Excel spreadsheet from Access using the Link Tables function and selecting Excel as the file type. You can then treat the spreadsheet exactly like another Access table.
Bash
Good point
