combine two tables with same fields

message from JR on 26 May 2004
I am trying to merge two tables that have the same field
names and properties, different sets of data in the
records, and a total of 84,309 records (48065 and 36244).

I've been trying for a while, cannot get anywhere.

Any clues?

Thanks!
JR

Do you mean temporarily as in a query or permanently so one of the tables
can be eliminated?

For the former use a UNION query. For the latter use an Append query to
copy all records from one table into the other.
