How can I extract a partial selection from a database (as in a query) to a new database?
 
Run the query.
Is it correct?
Good.
Go to design view of the query.
From the menu, hit Query, and then Make Table to change it into a make-table query.
Give it a name, etc.
Run the query.
Now, you've got a table.
When you close the query, DO NOT SAVE IT 'cause you only need it this one time, right?
Go open your other database file and hit File-Get external data, Import and go pick the DB that's got the new table. You'll get a list of objects. Pick the new table you made ONLY, and hit Ok.

Hope this helps! Anne Troy
