How to identify duplicate records in 2 databases

Roy
Hi all,
My task is to identify duplicate records in 2 tables that each located in
different Access database. These tables have exactly the same structure. My
immediate response was to create two datasets from each table and loop
through one and compare it with another one, but I'm sure there are better
way to this.
Any suggestions is appreciated.

I am not sure if it works, but if Access supports remote joins (attaching a
table from other database), that would be better.

Access 2000: I am trying to delete duplicate records imported to a staging table leaving one of the duplicates to be imported into the live table.

Since records to be imported can have duplicate records of the composite key I need to clean all but one of the...

I'm looking for a way in SQL to find duplicate records in a single table, that are the same based on 3 columns, regardless of what is in the other columns in the duplicate records. I would like to keep both records (or it could be more than 2 as well) where duplicate records are found. Also, I am interested in selecting all columns from the duplicate records. Thanks, Carroll Rinehart

The database has roughly 22,000 records but should only have around 6,000. The remaining records are duplicates, but in many cases the correct data for one person is spread out between the duplicate records and related tables. I need to be able to...

Overview: 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,...
