Import text file to DB

Question

Hi, At the bottom of this post you will find my code, which I use to import file to Access. Code itself is working but too slow. What's my problem? I'd like to import file size 20MB, but the whole thing last about 8 min. Is it possible to get shorter, with some different approach. Thank you for your comments!
