Since it's been slow, at least this will be something to talk about... First of all - Access TOTALLY SUCKS in case you didn't know....
I am trying to pull together data from like-named tables that exist in separate MDB files. For example I have 4 DB's, each with a table called "Accreditation". My MDB's are called 2011Qtr1.mdb, 2011Qtr2.mdb, 2011Qtr3.mdb, etc... I want to open up 2011Qtr1 and append the rows from all the other MDB's Accreditation table to build a full list. (One of) the problems I am running into is that Access (burn in hell) wants to do APPEND commands in a sort of "from HERE" to "THERE". IOW it appends data by pushing it from 2011Qtr2.Accreditation into 2011Qtr1.Accreditation. It's totally bass-akwards of the way we do things in VFP... I am going to have something like 11 years of this data, one quarter at a time, and want to automate this as much as possible. I just can't get my head around how to do this and have decided to just punt...
