I have some excel sheets that I would like to manage in access. I've created the access tables and relationships; the excel sheet is only one table and with duplicate data, I'd like to make sure that when I import the sheet, the proper tables are filled correctly.
For example, the excel sheet is in the format
clientID Name phone City Country
In acces, I have a "Cities" table and a "Coutries" table, with the fields (e.g. for cities)
ID (primary key)
City (non duplicable)
The Clientes table is something like
ClientID Name phone cityId CountryId
and I would like the Clients, Cities and Coutries tables to be filled correctly, with the Clients' cityID and CountryID pointing to the right fields
I've followed this topic http://www.thescripts.com/forum/thread190306.html but I can't get it to work. In the end, when I try to execute the query, i get "You have chosen to add 0 rows etc etc" and It doesn't add anything to the db.
Thanks in advance
