i have two tables that are related by three fields. is it possible to populate my new table with all the data in those three fields from my other table? i tried an update query using a select statement as the update to but i didnt really know what i was doing and it didnt work out any help...

each of those is a field, not a table name it actually is smart enough to know what table the fields are coming from, surprisingly as a side note i had it setup as TABLE.FIELD before what you see above and it changed absolutely nothing
