[AccessD] Copy Record from one db to another

NO - but I tried it with bracketing and same result.  

Anyway I added a few lines of code and got it working by brute force -
couple of DAO recordsets, .AddNew, loop through the source fields --> target
field, .Update, walla. Done.

Not elegant but effective.

Any spaces in the target database's  path?
