Insert new records only into SQL Table Using VBA
Your SQL query isn't quite right - there is no THEN
in a SQL IF
.
Also, you don't need to do anything if it does exist, so just use if not exists.
"IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM dbo.Customers WHERE FirstName = '" & sFirstName & "' and LastName = '" & sLastName & "') " & _ "INSERT INTO dbo.Customers (FirstName, LastName) " & _ "VALUES ('" & sFirstName & "', '" & sLastName & "')"
This should do it for you.
Sub Button_Click()'TRUSTED CONNECTION On Error GoTo errH Dim con As New ADODB.Connection Dim rs As New ADODB.Recordset Dim strPath As String Dim intImportRow As Integer Dim strFirstName, strLastName As String Dim server, username, password, table, database As String With Sheets("Sheet1") server = .TextBox1.Text table = .TextBox4.Text database = .TextBox5.Text If con.State <> 1 Then con.Open "Provider=SQLOLEDB;Data Source=" & server & ";Initial Catalog=" & database & ";Integrated Security=SSPI;" 'con.Open End If 'this is the TRUSTED connection string Set rs.ActiveConnection = con 'delete all records first if checkbox checked If .CheckBox1 Then con.Execute "delete from tbl_demo" End If 'set first row with records to import 'you could also just loop thru a range if you want. intImportRow = 10 Do Until .Cells(intImportRow, 1) = "" strFirstName = .Cells(intImportRow, 1) strLastName = .Cells(intImportRow, 2) 'insert row into database con.Execute "insert into tbl_demo (firstname, lastname) values ('" & strFirstName & "', '" & strLastName & "')" intImportRow = intImportRow + 1 Loop MsgBox "Done importing", vbInformation con.Close Set con = Nothing End WithExit SuberrH: MsgBox Err.DescriptionEnd Sub

FYI, my sheet looks like this.
You can use sql query like this:
IF Exists ( Select 1 from dbo.customers where Firstname = '" & sFirstName & "' and LastName = '" & sLastName & "' THEN Update dbo.customers set --other columns where Firstname = '" & sFirstName & "' and LastName = '" & sLastName & "'ELSE Insert into dbo.Customers (FirstName, LastName) " & _ "values ('" & sFirstName & "', '" & sLastName & "')"
Not sure about the syntax for excel and C#, you can correct that similar to this query
