    Update Query spikes database

    I tried the script suggested by Jerry, but Access doesn't like it. I'm guessing it would work outside Access.

    Update Query spikes database

    As an update, I cleaned up the query hoping that was the problem - modified it by removing the SQLtable that was not needed and ended up with this... which acts the same way. UPDATE dbo_ExamRecord INNER JOIN Tracking ON dbo_ExamRecord.AccNumber = Tracking.AccNumber SET...

    Update Query spikes database

    Okay, I'm starting to think the problem is elsewhere in Access and not witht he query. The query seems to be working as it should. Turns out I need both SQLtables to build the local table, but only need to hit one SQLtable to build the update query. The query goes to dbo_ExamRecord as it's...

    Update Query spikes database

    I have an Access database that pulls information from a main SQL server via append query and builds a table I use as a source for tracking purposes. The master key is the visit number since that is unique, but the problem is that the append query only adds new visits and the main database may...
