In an Access 2007 database I want to create a table whose data it
taken from a subset of another table, where a certain property is
true. A bit like a query or report with the following syntax.

SELECT Sales.ID, Sales.Quantity, Sales.Address, Sales.Label
FROM Sales
WHERE (((Sales.Label)=Yes))
ORDER BY Sales.ID;

The reason it must be a table is because the program which will use
this data will only allow me to access the tables.

Is this possible?
 
Look at Access HELP for "Make Table" queries. Make a copy of your existing
query, open it in design-grid view, select (from the top menu) "Query-Make
Table", designate a location and name for your new table, run.

You sure you can't get at queries? From the outside, queries and tables
usually look identical to most applications.

Thanks for that, but it seems I have to run the query to update the
table, is this the only way?
