You could do something like

SELECT * FROM [BE_TABLE_NAME] INTO [FE_TABLE_NAME];

You will have to set up the index(es) yourself afterward.

Did you mean "... copy ... into a database on a machine different than
where my FE is"? This is still doable, assuming you have access to the
remote machine, but the syntax is a bit different.

Thanks for the reply. Sorry I didn't give enough info.

I have a DB that is not split and I have code that crates a DB on a
remote machine and then copies a table form the DB I'm working on into
the newly created DB. It works fine but when I split the DB the code
only copies the link. I need to copy the actual table from the back
end.

Then this ought to work:

SELECT * INTO [dest_table_name] IN 'path_to_dest_M DB'
FROM [source_table]

ere do I put this code? I tried behind a button and get an expected
Case error.

I tried it in the SQL window of a query and it wouldn't let me save or
return to design view. Seems to have locked up.

That was straight SQL that works for me, it should work in the SQL query
view. Would you post what you tried?

I just retried the code and for some reson, user error on previous try
;-( , it worked fine. I think I tried to use a variable in the
destination db name.

I had wanted to generate a date on the destination but I guess I can
live without that.

Thanks you so much for your help.

Ahh, a PEBKAC error (^: I'm sure I've never done that (^;

You can generate an additional (date) field if you desire. A couple
things I discovered:

// inserts NEW_FIELD at "left" of others
SELECT *, Date() AS NEW_FIELD INTO [dest_table_name] IN 'path_to_dest_M DB'
FROM [source_table]

// inserts NEW_FIELD at "right" of others
SELECT [source_table].*, Date() AS NEW_FIELD INTO [dest_table_name] IN
'path_to_dest_M DB'
FROM [source_table]

I have a routine that creates a new database and then copies a couple of tables to the new database as backups. It works fine but I want to split the database and run this routine from a machine that does not have the actual tables on it. I am using the following DoCmd.TransferDatabase acExport, "Microsoft Access", "Backup.mdb", acTable, "TableName", "TableName" Is there a way to use this and get the tables from a different machine?

Hi out there, I'm a first-time user of the "Copy ...
