I imported an extensive table from Excel. Subsequently, changes were made to the data in the Excel spreadsheet and I would like to incorporate these changes into my Access table. I did not link the two and I do not want to import the Excel spreadsheet again because I have made several changes to the Access table after importing it. Is there any way to have Access go through the information in Excel and make the modifications in the field that suffered the changes?

Depends on whether you have a unique identifier that can be used to join the Excel table to the Access one.

There is a unique identifier.

In that case, then link to the Excel spreadsheet, and create an update query that links the Access table with the Excel table.
