Using Code
The DoCmd object has three methods that assist you with importing external data: TransferDatabase, TransferText, and TransferSpreadsheet, each of which I cover in the following sections.Importing Database Data Using Code
You use the TransferDatabase method of the DoCmd object to import data from a database such as FoxPro, dBASE, Paradox, or another Access database. Listing 20.1, included in basImport, shows an example that uses the TransferDatabase method.Importing Spreadsheet Data Using Code
You use the TransferSpreadsheet method of the DoCmd object to import data from a spreadsheet file. Listing 20.3 shows an example that uses the TransferSpreadsheet method.Creating a Link to External Data
If you need to keep the data in its original format but want to treat the data just like any other Access table, linking is the best solution. All the information required to establish and maintain the connection to the remote data source is stored within the linked table definition. You can create links through the user interface and by using code. The following sections cover both alternatives.One of the most common types of links is a link to another Access table. You create this type of link so that you can place the application objects (queries, forms, reports, macros, and modules) in a local database and so that you can store the tables in another database on a file server. Numerous benefits are associated with such a configuration. Chapter 22 discusses these benefits in more detail.
