Appending data imported

If I am importing Data from Excel can I add an additional field to create Flags to identify different types of customers for example VIPs or Emailable. Yes/No

RE: Appending data imported

Hello Louise

Thank you for your question and welcome to the forum.

Presumably the data imported from Excel is stored in a table, in which case you can add fields and specify their settings using Table Design view.

I hope this helps.

Kind regards
Amanda

Access tip:

Splittng a database

Split your database into two (at least).

Keep all of your code, forms, reports, etc. in one 'code' database and all of your tables in another 'data' database which is then linked to the 'code' database.

This makes modifications, updates and back-ups that much easier and allows you to work on a new version of your 'code' database without affecting existing users. It also makes it easier should you wish to convert a single user databases into a multi-user networked version.
