    When trying to import an Excel spreadsheet into Access the last 5 columns of a 20 column spreadsheet will not transfer. However if I attempt to import the last 5 columns alone, the last 5 columns will appear. If I attempt to import the last 6 columns, only the first column will show up. Has anyone had this problem ?

      Just a guess – are there any hiddencolumns in the xls?

        I could have sworn I sent you a reply but I can’t seem to find it. You were right –A hidden column was the problem.

      I’ve experienced importing problems if (1) the column heading in Excel is not a valid Access field name or (2) the column headings in Excel are duplicates.
