Is there some reason that you are using the tables themselves to substitute
for having data to identify the versions to which software applies? For
example, if all the fields are the same, simply add an OperatingSystem
field, and combine them into a single table. When you want only the
information for a given O/S, use a query with the O/S name as Criteria.
No, there's no automatic way to do what you want, unless you want to write a
VBA sub or function procedure with code to add a field with a name and
properties supplied in arguments.
