Hi,
I have a macro that runs a 'make table' query followed by a series of 'append queries' each time the macro is called. I require the data from each append query to be pasted below the existing data already created by the original make table query and the append queries that have already run. The issue that I am having is that the data in fact appears to be appended in an unpredictable way (ie sometimes I run the macro and find that data from the append queries is below the data from the make table query, at other times I run the macro and find that data from the append queries appears above the data from the make table query. Unfortunately, this causes problems with downstream queries, which rely upon finding the last row of data subject to various filters. Can anyone help me understand how Access determines the sorting/positioning of new data appended to an existing table, and therefore resolve this issue?
Thanks in advance,
jc
