    Validation Rule not allowing appending

    Fixed it. Decided that I was tired of messing with it. Ran an update query on the original table. Changed all the nulls and ""'s in a !. Now there are no blanks but the append query works. Thanks for all the advice. Phil raptor136@adelphia.net

    Validation Rule not allowing appending

    Well, I looked over the table definitions again. Nothing there, no validation rules at all. I ran the append as a select and it picked up all the records, but as an append drops 2 of them. I ran each query that processess the data one at a time and checked the resulting table, so it *is* the...

    Deleting Records based on record number

    I understand what you are saying. In the actual tables, I have an autonumber ID as primary key. I can create a Select Query that orders by ID. Once they are in order, Fld1 will sometimes be repeated. The second instance of matching data in Fld1 will always be kept. Does this make sense...
