Hi,
I'm probably making this much harder than it needs to be, but I just can't think of how to do this. Each year, a database is created with all employees on it. I need to pull all the employees from the last five years and delete any duplicates. Each table has the exact same fields. So basically, I'm trying to combine tables from 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009. Most of the employees will stay the same from year to year, so by combining all the years together, I get many multiples. There will be a few that aren't multiples, but how do I combine all this info and week out the multiples?

You should try a UNION Query, a union would allow you to union tables together and it would eliminate duplicates.

Duh...I knew I was making it harder than I needed to. Thanks for your help!!!
No problem. The easiest solutions are always the most elusive. =)

We have set up an Access database with tables x,y, & z where we would
like to have multiple people entering data into a table x. Each person
has an identical copy of the database on their PC's. When the person
is done entering the data into table x, we want them to e-mail their
database to one person who will combine the data from table x into a
single database.
What's the easiest method to combine the tables into a single table?

Hello,
I have a multithreaded windows NT service application (vb.net 2003) that I

the processing is complete it uses crystal reports to load a template file,
populate it, and then export it to a PDF.
It works fine so far....

I was inspired by the recent discussion of returning multiple recordsets to
ADO from a stored procedure. (Amazed is probably more accurate). I asked
about how to accomplish same with Oracle and got a nudge in the right
direction from Mr. Kreft. I promised to provide details once working, so
here it is.
The code is shown below. My next step is to build this technique into my
application. I'm hoping for substantial performance gain.

Hello everyone,
I have a database where I collect shipment data from various tables.
However, I have a problem. Whenever I want to see shipping data for
orders that were set to ship on or before a certain date (in this case
January 30th) the database will return 2 rows for an order as you can
see below.
Order ID: Line: Due Date: Qty: Ship Qty: Part #: Shipped:

Hi:
I need to find the multiples of a decimal number in a floating point
list. For instance, if a have the list , I want the
multiples of 0.2: .
With integers this problem is easy, just test for (i%n == 0), where i
is the number I am testing, and n is the multiple. Given the finite
resolution of floating point numbers, this is more complicated for
float.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
