Thanks for early reply Jeff,
I am clear about first one but my second question that
"Do we need to write a program to automatic import data from SQL server on
daily basis on same time Or we have some builtin tools in access"
I am sorry it was not clear I didn't explain in detail,
It was not from SQL server, I need to import some data in 4 - 5 programs on
daily basis which are linked by ODBC with history server(And I import data
from ODBC to Access Database on daily basis). I want to make that process
automatic, Do I need to write some routine OR we have some builtin tools
available in Access 97?
Thanks for help all the time.
