I need to search one of my database tables and move all the duplicate records into a new table.

Is there an easy query to do this?

Thanks

You can't really move a record, you'll have to do an append and delete and maybe another 2 appends depending on what you want.

I currently have a table called 'Attendees' which contains duplicate records. Due to the fact I imported the information from lots of spreadsheets there is duplicate names but that does that mean that the rest of the information for the record is duplicated. Hope that makes sense.

I want to do a query to filter all the dupliacte records into a new table so that I can then check what info it present for the duplicates and delete as necessary.

There's a query wizard to find duplicate records.

Some records have a Father and son at the same address, so I would only want to generate a count in my query that gives me one record for that household, a head of...

If a person is in multiple records, the other fields in the table in each record for that person may or may not contain data. I have two problems: 1. I...

When my form goes to a new record, I have a procedure that copies the last record added to the form's underlying table into the form. The intent is that a series of new records may have the same data in many of the fields so I paste in the same values of the previous record and then edit what needs edited in the new record saving much retyping of the same data. Doing this however creates the definite possibility of creating a duplicate...

In my form I have a master table and a details table linked 1xM. I can search through the whole parent table but I also like to be able to search through the child table fields to find parent records. Should I design a new form for this or can I somehow make this work in the same form. Thanks in advance, john
