There is a free tool somwhere out there that compares the tables in two
mdb's and generates code to update the "destination" mdb with the
differences in the "source" mdb. I canīt find it. Anyone of You can help?

Why not just copy all the data from the source database replacing the
existing data?

The data is not the problem it is the structure. Several fields has been
added to a number of tables.

If possible, you might consider just linking to the other tables and not
maintaining them at the "destination" database.

You also might consider just copying the tables complete with data to
the destination table after deleting the existing table.
