    Copy Database File And Save to Desktop

    Hi,
    Let's say I have a database called testTemplate.mdb in c:\ which is a template-like database where i import data to.

    Is there a way for me to copy the testtemplate.mdb and past it to my desktop with file name test.mdb.

    I don't want to copy any data from the database, just the table's + queries

    I would like this to be done via a macro... In order for me to execute other macro's to copy data from excel to that test.mdb file on desktop.

    1. Use code tags. Place "[code]" before the first line of code and "[/code"]" after the last line of code. Exclude quotation marks

    Hi

    something like this might work. It makes a copy of the database then deletes any table relationships (otherwise table records can't be deleted) and then deletes table records.

    excellent!
    for some reason i was getting an error with ".Execute mySQL"
    I commented it out and the macro work's so i guess that's fine.
