    <p>Here's an example from one of my programs (which still is in daily use at the company). It's taken from a vb6 program, but also executes in vba. I've tested it to be sure. </p> <p>In this example we have a temporary table with the name "mytable_tmp", which is updated with new data and we'd like to save this to the table "mytable" by replacing it.</p> <p>From your Excel vba editor you'll need to set a reference to the following two type libraries:</p> <ul> <li>"Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects 2.8 Library"</li> <li>"Microsoft ADO Ext. 2.8 for DDL and Security"</li> </ul> <p>The first one is for the ADODB namespace and the second for the ADOX namespace. (Maybe you have an earlier version of MDAC like 2.5 or earlier; this should work too).</p> <pre><code>Private Sub RenameTable() Dim cn As New ADODB.Connection Dim cat As ADOX.Catalog Const sDBFile As String = "c:\et\dbtest.mdb" On Error GoTo ErrH With cn .Provider = "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" .Mode = adModeShareDenyNone .Properties("User ID") = "admin" .Properties("Password") = "" .Open sDBFile End With Set cat = New ADOX.Catalog cat.ActiveConnection = cn cat.Tables("mytable").Name = "mytable_old" cat.Tables("mytable_tmp").Name = "mytable" cat.Tables("mytable_old").Name = "mytable_tmp" ExitHere: If Not cn Is Nothing Then If Not cn.State = adStateClosed Then cn.Close Set cn = Nothing End If Set cat = Nothing Exit Sub ErrH: Dim sMsg As String sMsg = "Massive problem over here man." sMsg = sMsg &amp; vbCrLf &amp; "Description : " &amp; cn.Errors.Item(0).Description MsgBox sMsg, vbExclamation GoTo ExitHere End Sub </code></pre> <p>Hoping to be helpful.</p>

    1. COIt seems to me that the only value of this longwinded code over Remou's three lines of code is for when you don't have Access installed.

    2. COIt also gives the option of doing more than just a straight copy within the same code - and who knows, the Excel user might not have access to Access. Still, in general I have to agree Remou's looks more usable.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
