strsql = "SELECT * FROM Firstable "
secstrsql = "SELECT * FROM secondtable"
Set Frs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset(strsql)
Set Srs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset(secstrsql) 
 sqlinsert = "INSERT INTO Srs ( StransfereDate, transfereName, transfereId, transferAddress ) SELECT Frs.FtransfereDate, Frs.Tname, Frs.TId, Frs.TAddress FROM Frs  WHERE NOT EXISTS  (SELECT *  FROM Srs   WHERE (  Frs.FtransfereDate=Srs.StransfereDate AND Srs.transfereName=Frs.Tname AND Srs.transfereId =Frs.TId AND Srs.transferAddress=Frs.TAddress  )    )"
            DoCmd.SetWarnings False
CurrentDb.Execute sqlinsert
DoCmd.SetWarnings True
   
End Sub

You can't use VBA recordsets in SQL statements. SQL must refer to tables (or saved queries).

You need something like this:

INSERT INTO secondtable ( ... ) 
SELECT ... FROM Firstable 
WHERE ...
