I am totally new to ms Access.

I did get a lot of help form this forum for Excel

I do have a excel file that I am using, but it is getting to big to handle, now I need to put it in a database (access), but I do not know Access at all, I want to make a form that can be changed, and need a few tables, for importing form excel, but I do not know where to begin with this, do any one have a sample or can help me with this.

How to find 2nd largest value in a column?
MAX finds the largest value. =LARGE(A:A,2) will find the second largest. =SMALL(A:A,3) will find the third smallest

Have a read on some of the help items on Microsoft support site below to get started.
Right questions, right program - Choose between Access and Excel

There is a lot of thought and logic you have to put into setting up the infrastructure of the database in Access.
About designing a database - Access

The good thing is that Access can import your Excel data to get you started.

Have you found a solution? What exactly do you need to do with the data?

Yes and no

I have make a database, and have make search enquiry’s, but I need to when I make a new entry to give in some info in the text boxes certain info, that I then can change if I need to.

Eg. say I have 10 textboxes where I want to put new data in,

In Textbox 2, 3 and 6 I want certain info to be always there. Eg text box 2 I want this to always show “5421MAG01-“ then I want only need to add “1234” at the end.
