Hi @Gasman I agree with you.
Separate modules are just for the moment. Till I was sure that the step I am trying to perform is getting completed without any issues.
That is why broke into small parts for the time being.

Yes, will rename button names more meaningful.
When I import the table it does not have auto number field.
The code @moke123 has provided me has auto number field hence I created that in my table too to get the result.
Thanks.

We have no idea what you are doing with this data, or even if an autonumber fields are required. :(
As I mentioned in the other thread. Take 5 and work out the steps, and build one at a time.

If your data is going to have different datatypes you may have to use a staging table to import the text and then write it to your final table converting the datatypes as needed.

Why not just import into excel if that is where it is going to end up?
Record a macro when you import your sample file.

Mucking around with 1M rows is going to take time anyway you do it, I would have thought?

Hi @Gasman , thanks for the help. Excel would have been really good choice for me.
But data is exceeding more than 1 million rows hence I am trying with Access.

Got something on stackoverflow regarding Excel. Hopefully I should be able to crack it.
Thanks a lot everyone for the constant help. Have a nice weekend. :)

PS - If Excel does not work then I will again seek help here.
