Access

If you produce a table from a query, do the new table have the same qualities and power as a original table ?
What is the weakness of doing it that way?

RE: Access

The table will inherit the properties of the table that is was created from,even through it was created through a query.

It will not contain any relationships that the original table may have had to other tables or queries.

Access tip:

Deleting duplicate records from a table

You cannot delete records tables where there duplicate records. A way around this is to create a new table which wont hold the duplicates. and then deleting the old table.

1. Use a make-table query based on this table only. IMPORTANT - Ensure that you include all of the fields from your original table or you may loose data.

2. Open the query's property sheet by using VIEW, QUERY, PROPERTIES, and set the Unique Values property to Yes

3. Because you have selected the Unique Values to Yes when you run the query, Access creates a new table without duplicate records. You can now delete the old table and rename the new one.
