My script does not insert any data in the database table and it does not throw any error either.
The server, database and table names are correct. The workbook is selected using filedialog (hence correct filepath) and the worksheet name seems correct too. I have data in column A. My table is made of 2 fields:
The While Loop performs 2 iterations but I have 4 records on the worksheet.
Any idea why the data does not insert in the table?
