I have made an access module to export queries to excel. I cannot figure out the correct sql to simply insert a column. This is what I have tried, if anyone could help I would appreciate it.



Columns("D:D").Select
Selection.Insert Shift:=xlToRight, CopyOrigin:=xlFormatFromLeftOrAbove
 

Excel Facts

Which lookup functions find a value equal or greater than the lookup value?
MATCH uses -1 to find larger value (lookup table must be sorted ZA). XLOOKUP uses 1 to find values greater and does not need to be sorted.

Why not just insert a calculated field in your Access query that just returns a blank value?
Then when you export that query, the blank column will already be there.

I presume you have already referenced the workbook and sheet in code, so
Range("D1").EntireColumn.Insert ?
