I want to design/automate a new table using certain fields
(with different types of data)from several different
tables located on another network.

Example design of

New table:

Certain Fields:

Type Project Document# Total Oblg Future Yr1 Future Yr2

01 TW200312 125 $170,000 $170,000 $200,000


Tables where different fields are located

PV Buget Table - only displays Future Yr1, Future Yr 2

Appl Table - only displays Type and Project

Doc Table - only displays document


I know I can run a query but I'm trying to develop a new
table. Please help!!
 
You can, but why ?

Copying data from one table(s) to another just guarantees that the second
table goes out of date as soon as someone modifies data in the original
table.

OK, in the rare case where the data will *never* change, then I guess you
can import all the data into another table, but I still dont see the point.
If a query can get the data from where it is now, what do you gain by moving
it to somewhere else, other than using up disk space ?

But if you really have a need to, then just create a table with the fields
you want, and turn a Select query into an Append query to get the data you
want into the new table.
