Exporting/Importing a single record from one DB to Another

I have been unable to locate anywhere the answer to my problem. I
would like to be able to download/import a single record. This record
is stored in many different related (one to one) tables. I have saved
a single record to Excell and then to a floppy by using a query, to
save the parts of the record I want then "Save as" "Excell". The
problem is being able to take it from the floppy/USB drive and import
it to the same, but in a different location, Data base with its many
related tables. This HAS to be able to be done with a floppy or USB
drive, not email or downloading from a common drive etc.
Thanking you In advance
Stewart

ONE way to do this would be to create an empty copy of your database
(be sure to Compact it) and then import just the tables. Then you
could attach to the destination database (a series of linked tables)
and append from there.
