Answer 1

First, Password is a reserved word, so use [Password].

Second, a date expression must be wrapped in octothorpes: #2017/04/24#

Also, if you won't use parameters, even though recommended, use a function like this to concatenate your values:

' Converts a value of any type to its string representation.
' The function can be concatenated into an SQL expression as is
' without any delimiters or leading/trailing white-space.
'
' Examples:
'   SQL = "Select * From TableTest Where [Amount]>" & CSql(12.5) & "And [DueDate]<" & CSql(Date) & ""
'   SQL -> Select * From TableTest Where [Amount]> 12.5 And [DueDate]< #2016/01/30 00:00:00#
'
'   SQL = "Insert Into TableTest ( [Street] ) Values (" & CSql(" ") & ")"
'   SQL -> Insert Into TableTest ( [Street] ) Values ( Null )
'
' Trims text variables for leading/trailing Space and secures single quotes.
' Replaces zero length strings with Null.
' Formats date/time variables as safe string expressions.
' Uses Str to format decimal values to string expressions.
' Returns Null for values that cannot be expressed with a string expression.

Answer 2

Try to change this part of code

"VALUES(" & Me.textfname & ",'" &

to this

"VALUES('" & Me.textfname & "','" &

in both lines
