<DIV><SPAN class=679415605-04092003><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff

<DIV><SPAN class=679415605-04092003><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff

your SQL string this will speed thing even more.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=679415605-04092003><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff

<DIV>I have four tables.</DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV>Table1 is where all the records end up. It starts out
empty.</DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV>1. I take all transactions from Table2 and append them into
Table1.</DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV>2. I then check each record in Table3 and see if there is a
corresponding record in Table1 based on two fields. If so, then I edit
the existing record in Table1. If not, I add it.</DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV>3. I the do the same as in step 2 for Table4.</DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV>I am using DAO recordset processing and use the RS.FindFirst
method to see if records from Table3 or 4 are in Table1. </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV>It appears that this FindFirst method is greatly slowing my
process. Is there a faster way. I pasted my code below if anyone wants
to see it.</DIV>
