Import a recordset or link fields?
Kevin 05.06.2006 16:06:02
What is the best way to accomplish this?
I would like to import/export or copy/paste a recordset with related data in
5 tables from one database in Access 2002 to another database in Access 2002.

Or...would I be better off linking the tables? My thought was to base it on
a field in the first database called JobNumber. When that field is null, it
would not be linked, but when a value is entered (example: 06-5768) it would
allow the link to take place?

Any help or direction is appreciated!

Hi Kevin,

Use linked tables unless there's a specific reason not to.
