two options. One is to import into a temporary table that you can
query and fix your data. Then import into the final table. When you
append the data to the final table, you can update the records where
the FileName/Source is Null to the name of the current file. (If you
use the OpenFile API to get the filename, it could be stored in a
variable, which you could access via a VBA function.

Lookup tables. You can write a query to join on the actual field
value and then update another column that contains the ID for your
company name.
