Question

I’ve got a legacy program, and I’m working with Access 97. I want to use ADO to make new table that has the exact same structure as another table.

• I tried using this : Create new table from a query on another table in ado
• And this: How do you create a MS table in C# programatically

This is what I’m getting:

 Select * FROM [TempMergeTable] INTO [TempMergeTableFix]
 Syntax error in FROM clause

TempMergeTableFix doesn’t exist already. Will this not work with Access 97?

What’s going on and how can I do this?

Answer 1

Oh, it was a syntax error after all. It really should have been:

SELECT * INTO newtable FROM source;
