Append Data to a Table:

Identify the Header Row

This step compares the Fields in the External Data to the Fields in the existing Table. The Field Names AND Data Types need to MATCH. Text goes with Text. Numbers go with Numbers.

 

4. Try it: Confirm the Header Row

This sample spreadsheet has a Header Row. The Header Row contains all of the Field Names: Movie, Year, Rating, etc.

 

Everything looks good.

Click Next.

 

Try This, Too: Import to Table

Confirm the Table: tblMovies.

Click Finish to close the Import Wizard.

If the Save Import Steps window is open you can simply close it

 

So, did the Wizard append (add) these movies to the right Table?
