I can't seem to make an Append Query do what I want...any help will be appreciated!

I need to append records to a table called "tbl_6A_POP" from a table called "tbl_Media_Code". tbl_Media_Code has 7 records ("1000" thu "6000" plus "6500" in a field called "Media_Code"). tbl_6A_POP already has a field called "Media_Code" that has several hundred entries...an excerpt from tbl_6A_POP looks like this:

MC_PKTTLM_No_PKMedia_Code Rec_No
335242300019-39-5
3362423000749-9-1
337242400056-55-378
338242400050-3-8
339242400020-9-2
340242400053-704-3
341242400013-9-5
34324450001479-73-001
344244500079-1-634

As you can see, there are multiple records for a given TTLM_No_PK, but not every Media_Code is recorded for each TTLM_No_PK. I need to append tbl_6A_POP to have each of the 7 records from tbl_Media_Code for each TTLM_No_PK in tbl_6A_POP. Even as I'm typing this, I realize I'm probably not making any sense...but if you might have a suggestion for getting the missing "Media_Code" records into the tbl_6A_POP table WITHOUT deleting the existing Media_Code records in tbl_6A_POP, I'll be a happy camper!

Thanks!
