I am building a database to be used for healthcare data. The Data
comes from imported txt files and combines information from several
reports through queries. I am working on configuring the new
information to be appended into a Master Table each time. This will
require a primary key which I do not have yet, there is no one single
field that is unique. The fields are either Text or Date/Time
formats.
Can I use the Text field which contains the patient's Account number
and a Date/Time Field as a dual primary key? Will this work when
appending New data?
I have sequenced all the actions in VB applied to an "OnClick" event
in a command button. Using the TransferText method followed by update
and Delete queries for each report I have configured the Date/Time
data to concatenate and the produce reports I need. This final Append
Data so I have one single table holding all the unique records will
complete the project. Any Advice or ideas will be appreciated. Thank
You.
