Using the Table Analyzer

[nouveauricheinvestments]

I am reading a really thick book to help me get into Access and learn
everything but one thing I don't understand is that when I use the
table analyzer, it splits my table up for me, and leaves the original
table there. Do I need that original table? So, say I split the
table into 2 tables, one that is managers and one that is trades, I
still have the original table as well called Trade Data. Do I need
that?

Thanks

hi,

This depends on the result of the splitting operation:

If the result is correct, then you don't need the original table any
more. But when the result is incorrect, you may need it to manually
correct the problem.

After this optional correction you don't need it any more and may delete it.

Caution: Always create a backup copy of your file before doing a table
split.

Okay Thank you for your reply Stefan...That is helpful...It is sort of
more like a back up in the event that you screw up when you split the
original.
