I have been trying since 9am to import a worksheet, I go thru all the steps and hit finish and MS just tells me there is an error ~ but is not nice enough to give me a hint as to what it is.

I have no blank cells/rows/columns
 
Dude, you're not very generous with details, either!

This is all the data that MS Access would give me, I was hoping someone w/ much more experience in Access could give suggestions as to different things to look for as possible errors, like % sign in column header or what ever.
I have gotten it into Access now, however it distored my data. Too hard to deal with at this point without being able to show someone, I find MicroSoft Access very difficult and not user friendly.
 
The remark was about the data YOU should provide to increase your chances of getting help, starting with the Office version + maybe a short description of some table and/or procedure details, i.e. an import errors table in your db after importing.
