Yes No. You cannot skip specific fields or records when importing data from a table or query. However, if you do not want to import any of the records in a table, you can choose to import only the table definition.
You can choose to import an entire table or just the table definition. When you import just the definition, Access creates a table that has the same fields as the source table, but no data. If a field in the source table looks up values in another table or query, you must import the related table or query if you want the destination field to display lookup values. If you do not import the related table or query, the destination field will only display the lookup IDs. You can import a query either as a query or as a table.
If you import a query as a query, then you must import the underlying tables. Open the destination database. Ensure that the database is not read-only and that you have the necessary permissions to add objects and data to the database.
If the source database is password protected, you are prompted to enter the password each time you use it as a source for an import operation.
Note: If you want to import the data into a new database, you must create a blank database that does not contain any tables, forms, or reports before starting the import operation. The import operation does not overwrite or modify any of the existing tables or objects.
If an object with the same name as the source object already exists in the destination database, Access appends a number 1, 2, 3, and so on to the name of the import object. For example, if you import the Issues table to a database that already has a table named Issues, the imported table will be named Issues1. If the name Issues1 is already in use, the new table will be named Issues2, and so on.
It is important to note that if you want to append the records in the source table to a table in the destination database, you must use an append query instead of running an import operation.
The location of the import wizard differs slightly depending upon your version of Access. Choose the steps that match your Access version:. In the File name text box, type the name of the source database or click Browse to display the File Open dialog box.
Select Import tables, queries, forms, reports, macros, and modules into the current database and click OK. In the Import Objects dialog box, on the Tables tab, select the tables you want to import. If you want to import queries, click the Queries tab and select the queries you want to import. Select to import any custom menus and toolbars that exist in the source database. The menus and toolbars are displayed on a tab named Add-Ins.
Select to import the selected queries as queries. In this case, remember to import all the underlying tables along with the queries. Access copies the data and displays error messages if it encounters any problems. If the operation succeeds in importing the data, the final page of the wizard allows you to save the details of the operation as an import specification for future use. Linking lets you connect to data in another database without importing it, so that you can view and modify the latest data in both the source and destination databases without creating and maintaining two copies of the same data.
You can link only to tables in another Access database. You cannot link to queries, forms, reports, macros, or modules. Upgrade now. Import and export. Import and link. Link to or import from dBASE.
