    Sure. Here us one way (there are others).

    Make a separate Front-End database which just does the Import, and then closes.
    If you place that code in a Macro named "AutoExec", it will run automatically upon opening.
    Then you can use Windows Scheduler (or any other Scheduling software you use) to open that Database at a specific time each day.
