Hi There,

I have a table that is reciving data from Excel, there are occasions when the data imported dosent correspond to the field criterias. (text into a number fields)

The problem is that My DB has stopped creating the Import Error tables and is now showing standard error msgs like:


The application was unable to append all the data to the table.The contents of 9 Record(s) were deleted, and 0 Records(s) were lost due to key violations.


I'd like to know how I can substitute the standad error message and get my Db to create the error tables like it was doing before.

Thanks, Peps
 
If it's just text in number fields, change the import sepcification so all fields are treated as text. You can then change them to numbers once they are in Access.
