Problem:
I need to create a macro or a query to clear all of the date fields in my [Last Date Updated] field.
Reason:
On the click of a button I have a master table export via e-mail to the HQ of our company. On the HQ end, the user will click a macro that will:
Import the file into a new table
Open the update query which will weed out unchanged records
Close the query
Delete the imported table
Back in at the division end, when the user exports the file...I would like to have the same marco run a command or query to reset all of the last updated fields to NULL. Or I could created a field called [Update] as a check box allowing me to know on the import end which records need to pass through the import and update query for HQ. If I do this...I will still have to reset all of the [Last Date Updated] or [Updated] field to No, or Null.
Could I just run an update query to reset all of the fields. Sounds like the Yes/No field would be easier. Hmm...I think I've figured this out for myself. I'll try it out, but if anyone can think of a way to do this or a better way of performing this operation....I'd like to hear about it!!!
