easiest way is to create a linked table to the spreadsheet then use an update query where you can append field 'ABC' in your spreadsheet to your field 'XYZ' in your table.
Once the linked table is created, you do not need to delete and recreate next time. Just make sure the spreadsheet has the same name. I tend to use a routine along the lines of
copy spreadsheet to an 'import' folder changing the name to a standard name which your linked table is linked to. e.g. spreadsheets are called 'weekly output for week X' , remove the 'X'
run your import routine
move spreadsheet to an 'imported' folder
