I maintain a database for a youth group. We serve kids in grades 6 through
12. Because I am database challenged, I have been trying to learn how to
best use Access through the one book my employer bought me, the one seminar
they sent me to, and these newsgroups here! Now I have a task that I don't
have much time for; I'm leaving and only have 3 more workdays until I am gone.
For the last two years, at the end of each school year, I have converted the
graduates along with the younger students: two years ago, the 12th graders
became 13th graders; last year, the 13th graders became 14th graders, and the
12th graders became the new 13th graders, and so on. Now I am leaving this
job (dare I say, Yay?) but I want to move these college-age people out of the
main database and put their records somewhere else. I don't want to just
delete them, because another associate organization may want the information
at some point.
What is the best way to do this? I do not want to use code (don't even
begin to fathom it). I can make new tables, queries, etc., using the
wizards, and was hoping someone here could take my pc-ignorant self through
the steps required to do this.
