    Unhappy Need help with table replace module for FE database

    I'm a terrible self-taught access administrator.

    I developed a DB that works off imported data from an excel worksheet that is actively wrote to - so it cannot be linked otherwise it has caused issues with the Excel table auto-write/save.

    To circumvent this I used the code below - which works beautifully - until I split the DB into a front-end and a back-end and now I'm royally hooped with a deadline. Aye aye aye.

    If anyone can offer any guidance I'd be extremely grateful.

    Option Compare Database




    Public Sub UpdatePDFs()
    Dim strSql As String
    Dim n As Integer
    Dim db As DAO.Database
    Set db = CurrentDb


    'Update SARF Table
    DoCmd.RunSQL "DELETE tblSARFSubmissions.* FROM tblSARFSubmissions;"
    DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acImport, , "tblSARFSubmissions", "xyzfilepath\exceldoc.xlsm", True, Table1
    DoCmd.SetWarnings True
    For n = db.TableDefs.Count - 1 To 0 Step -1


    ' loop through all tables
    If InStr(1, db.TableDefs(n).Name, "ImportError") > 0 Then
    ' if table is import errors table
    DoCmd.DeleteObject acTable, db.TableDefs(n).Name
    ' delete table
    End If
    Next n

    Even with the Db split, it should still import...tho, what is Table1 in the command?:
    DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acImport, , "tblSARFSubmissions", "xyzfilepath\exceldoc.xlsm", True, Table1

    it should be the name of the sheet but in quotes, and the filepath should be the full server UNC path:
    DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acImport, xlVersion , "tblSARFSubmissions", "\\server\folder\exceldoc.xlsm", True, "Table1"
