[AccessD] Copy Record from one db to another

I will delete from the target db all the records in the source that match
up. 

But that still leaves me with the copy (or append actually) which I was
trying to do with an INSERT INTO statement but can't seem to get the right
syntax.  I have the target db path and name available in a text box.

But this is not working:

db1.Execute "INSERT INTO tblProductStructure.* in " & Me.txtTargetDatabase &
" SELECT tblBOMReport.* from tblBOMReport"

At this point I'll have deleted all the records from the target that match
the source so the source records can all be appended in one swell foop.

When you say "COPY", does that mean all target records with matching keys
from the source are deleted and then inserted ?
Or is it a mixed bag where some new ones are inserted and some existing ones
updated ?
