Create two queries. In the first query, set the criteria as "C" & "*" and in the
second query set the criteria as "N" & "*". Export each query into a different
Excel worksheet. Copy and paste the "N" numbers in the column beside the "C"
numbers. Go back to Access, open the database windows to Tables, click on File -
Get External Data and follow the instructions to import the two columns into a
new Access table.

Another way would be to write a VBA routine that would read each 2
line pair and put the results into the production table.
== air code ==
const SQL_IN = "SELECT * FROM ImportTable"
dim db as dao.database
dim rsIn as dao.recordset
dim rsOut as dao.recordset
dim strCol1 as string, strCol2 as string
set db = currentdb
set rsIn = db.OpenRecordse t(SQL_IN)
set rsOut = db.OpenRecordse t("FinalTable ")
do while not rsIn.EOF
' Get the data in 2-line pairs from the
' imported file.
strCol1 = rsIn(0)
rsIn.MoveNext
strCol2 = rsIn(0)
' Put the 2-line pair into 1 record
rsOut.AddNew
rsOut!Column1 = strCol1
rsOut!Column2 = strCol2
rsOut.Update
rsIn.MoveNext
loop
== end air code ==
You'd have to change the table and column names to your usage. You'd
also have to add error handling routines - watch out for EOF when not
expected (read the 1st line of a 2-line pair and trying to read the
2nd line, but it's not there).

Are you, in fact, importing a _text file_ or are you importing a _table_?
The answer will, of course, differ for each of these.
It's a little confusing to me because you say you are importing a "file" but
then that you want to put the data into "another table".

Hi all,
I'm working on the schema for a database that must represent data about stock

next.

I have a column that has text delimited by a percent sign that I wish

Example:
A column contains ROBERT%CAMARDA, I want to turn that into two rows,
one row with ROBERT and antoher row with CAMARDA.
I will have source rows that have zero, one, or many percent sign
delimiters that will correspond to that many rows (One percent sign
will create 2 rows, 2 percent signs will create 3 rows and so forth).
Any thoughts?

I'm trying to combine 2 or more similar rows into one row, accumulating a field for quantity. E.g.:
index, field1, field2, quantity
1, ccc, bbb, 5
2, aaa, bbb, 15
3, aaa, bbb, 3
Because the contents of fields 1 & 2 are the same in rows 2 and 3, I want to end up with only one row with the total quantity.
index, field1, field2, quantity
