RE: automagically import a .CSV into Access db table from CL?

I believe that if you just name your macro "autoexec" and it will start
when the database is opened.  As far as how to create a macro you just
click on the macros tab of the database, then "new".  When designing the
macro there is a drop-down list of actions.  You can also do some VB
scripting but it's been a while since I've done that...

You've got my ear, Joe.

How does one create a short cut to an Access macro?  The macro can be
invoked outside of Access to start up Access, clear the two tables, and do
the imports?  Whoa.
