Hi!
I have an Excel file which is received from IT daily. This file is not normalized and presently, it contains 73 columns and just under 7000 rows. Not all of the columns are used.
The data in this file is split into 7 tables in an Access database. Initially, the data was manually copied into each table in the database at month end but reporting now has to be done daily on this data.
The Access tables are already created and there are underlying queries, forms and reports using the data in this table.
I was exploring using Make Table queries but then I will have issues with the relationships among theses 7 tables as all 7 are related.
Can anyone offer a solution that would easily allow me to get the information in the database daily without having to make too many changes to the existing structure?
In addition, there are a number of columns containing dates. --/--/-- appears for the date fields that do not contain an actual date.
Thanks!
