I need a little guidance here. I have set up a table for job estimates with
a large number of data fields. On the estimate form is a command button to
convert the estimate to a scheduled job. When the user clicks the button I
would like to copy certain fields and paste them to corresponding fields in
a projects table. Could someone point me in the right direction on where to
start this process?

But before you do that, consider carefully if your 2-table setup is a
good idea. The alternative is one table, with an additional Status
field that can be set to either Estimate or Job (or any number of
statuses). This is often much more convenient.

Tom is probably right, but the moment I see "a large number of data fields"
I suspect you are trying to create an Excel type sheet in Access. I would
guess that you should be looking at a main form for the estimate (Names,
Address etc) and a continuous subform showing details and price. So 2
tables, one for the names and address and Tom's Status flag and the other
table with a foreign key pointing to the customer and detail & price.

How could I copy all the data from Table2.Field1 to Table1.Field1?
Is there any simpler way except looping through all the records to do

Hello,
How to make sure COPY TO writes the table lines to the file in the same order
they were inserted?
I'm producing html pages in pl/pgsql and using COPY TO to write then to file.
Occasionaly, about once in 7 or 9, the lines are copied to the file out of the
order they were inserted in the table.
The lines have one only column of the type text.

Hi,
I have an MS Access app which lets me create a new product by copying
data from another selected product.
All works fine, except one of the copy updates which I cannot fathom.
The code creates a new product and copies over the parent data from the
other product first.
Then related data from other tables is copied accross using the new

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
