It's not exactly clear what you want. However,

You first have to reference Microsoft DAO 3.6 Object Library. You can then open a database with the following two lines.

Dim Engine As DAO.DBEngine: Set Engine = New DAO.DBEngine
Dim DB As DAO.Database: Set DB = _
       Engine.Workspaces(0).OpenDatabase("D:\LiveRecord.mdb", false, false, _
       "MS Access;PWD=liver")

You can access the sql statement with

Call DB.Execute("insert etc")

I hope this helps.
