We've created a new database and need to import the data from our old
database. Both are MS Access databases and each have multiple tables. The
table structure of each table is completely different from each other, but
the actual fields of the data we need to move exist in both tables.
From what I see in the MS Access help I can only find how to import a
complete table from another Access database.
How can I import the data from table 1 of one file into various tables in
the second file?
e.g. Move the like data from the tables in FileOne to the tables in FileTwo.
(notice that the field names may not be the same between the tables)
FileOne.MDB --------
Table1
Name C20
Address C30
Table2
City C20
Phone C15
FileTwo.MDB --------
Table1
Name C20
LandPhone C15 <--data from Phone field in FileONe
CellPhone C15
Table2
Address C30
City C20
Postal C10

Link to the tables in database1 and use a series of append queries on each table
to move the selected data in each table to the appropriate table in database2.

The database application has a function called an "insert query" which will
do exactly what you want in one step. I am new to Access so I don't know if
Access has the same type of query. If not, someone with Paradox can do it
for you and return the data as MS Access tables.

Sorry, an append query not a make table query. You may need to create
a link to the old database to the new database to do the append query.
Once it's done delete the query and the link and you should be set.

You can temporarily attach the tables, write a bunch of append queries
with the correct criteria (start with a select query first!) and then
run those. Once that's done, you don't need the attached tables
anymore and you can delete them. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

We just shifted to Access 2003 at work.
I have a database that contains information that is updated each month with
another (source) Access file.
To update the fields in our database, I built (and used fine up till now) a
number of queries that copy the appropriate field contents and update the
fields in our database. This is done using a Unique_ID number common to
both.
