Which file type would you use to save an Excel 2007 xlsx as, when importing an Excel file into an Access 2003 database?
I am working with an Access 2003 application using VBA code and I also am trying to import an Excel 2007 file with an extension of XLSX.
My VBA code to import Excel files is as follows:
DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acImport, acSpreadsheetTypeExcel9, "Bank Credits (A)", filenm, False, "Bank Credits (A)!A:N"
If I open the XLSX file and want to save it in Excel 2003 format so that I can import the file into my Access 2003 application, I notice that after I open the XLSX file, the file can be saved to file types as follows:
Microsoft Office Excel Workbook (*.xls)
Microsoft Office Excel 5.0/95 Workbook (*.xls)
Microsoft Excel 97 Excel 2003 & 5.0/95 Workbook (*.xls)
Which of these choices would you recommend? They all seem to work but I wanted advice on which choice is best.
