Answer 1

Open tblSummary_Appl_Usage_score as a DAO recordset. Then use its .AddNew method to create a new row and store the values from your ADO recordset.

Dim db As DAO.database
Dim rsDao As DAO.Recordset
Set db = CurrentDb
Set rsDao = db.OpenRecordset("tblSummary_Appl_Usage_score", dbOpenTable, dbAppendOnly)
rsDao.AddNew
rsDao![Configuration] = rs![Configuration]
rsDao![User Input / Output] = rs![User Input / Output]
rsDao.Update

With this approach, your code needn't be adapted differently based on the recordset field data types. It will work correctly regardless of data type as long as the matching fields are both the same or compatible data types.

Answer 2

If the type fields in your table tblSummary_Appl_Usage_score are numbers, use this:

DoCmd.RunSQL "INSERT INTO tblSummary_Appl_Usage_score VALUES (" & rs![Configuration] & "," & rs![User Input / Output] & ")"

If the type is string, use this:

DoCmd.RunSQL "INSERT INTO tblSummary_Appl_Usage_score VALUES (""" & rs![Configuration] & """,""" & rs![User Input / Output] & """)"
