Rocky, I think so, but how does that help me? I have in the meantime found a way: without changing a table, I have added a column in the union query, which is " id - id as tablename " for one table, and " id - id +1 as tablename " for the other table. Now I get fro the union query an additional column which shows 0 for one table and 1 for the other table. Thanks anyway Lembit ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rocky Smolin at Beach Access Software" <rockysmolin at bchacc.com> To: "'Access Developers discussion and problem solving'" <accessd at databaseadvisors.com> Sent: Saturday, January 19, 2008 4:18 PM Subject: Re: [AccessD] Combine two tables > Is DISTINCT available to a union query? > > Rocky > > > > > > > > > -----Original Message----- > From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com > [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Lembit Soobik > Sent: Saturday, January 19, 2008 7:13 AM > To: Access Developers discussion and problem solving > Subject: [AccessD] Combine two tables > > Hi, everybody, > > In an Access 2002 I have two linked tables, table A is in the BE which > belongs to this FE, table B is in a different database, and it is used > there > as well. > Both tables are lists of persons with id, lastname, firstname, and other > fields. > > I want to use names from both tables as customers. > I have made a union query, but this gives me duplicate id numbers. > > Is there a way to insert the source table name into the union query, so > that > I can then distinguish from which table a certain record is? > > Or is there a better solution? > > Thank you > Lembit > > -- > AccessD mailing list > AccessD at databaseadvisors.com > http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd > Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com > > No virus found in this incoming message. > Checked by AVG Free Edition. > Version: 7.5.516 / Virus Database: 269.19.7/1232 - Release Date: 1/18/2008 > 7:32 PM > > > -- > AccessD mailing list > AccessD at databaseadvisors.com > http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd > Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com > > > -- > No virus found in this incoming message. > Checked by AVG Free Edition. > Version: 7.5.516 / Virus Database: 269.19.7/1232 - Release Date: > 18.01.2008 19:32 > >
