Duplicating a database structure

[n107jkx]

I have created a quite complex database, but it is only for one group of people.

Is there a quick way of duplicating the database and it structure into one DB so that i can use main menus and so on to link the two groups (i need to do exactly the same things, but for two different groups of data)

I have tried a couple of times, and although the queries and tables work fine, the copied forms and records do not update their sources to the new tables and queries.

Hope you can understand this!

Any help would be much appreciated

Hey n107jkx

It seems to me as though your database is still referencing the first group of tables. This means that your forms do not "see" the new tables.

Therefore, it's important to make them see the new data. To do this I suggest that you have a drop-down list of your tables and a SQL statement that changes your RecordSource to the new table name. As long as the new tables have EXACTLY the same format as the first lot, your form will show the new data.
