    VBA to pull information into Access from Excel

    I've got users completing timesheets in Excel and I need to get this data into Access programatically. Could anybody point me towards some resources? The user must use Excel for the timesheets and the format is not changeable so I must use code from within Access. What I'm thinking of is...
