I have two questions: Why does this giveme only an empty table?
(I am trying to import "sfsf.db" into the larger, empty "blank.db".)


Query
ANSWER: :pRIV:ANSWER.DB

blank.db | last | first | email |
| changeto _last | changeto _first | changeto _email |

blank.db | Alt email | business_location | home_phone |
| changeto _email2 | changeto _company | changeto _phone |

blank.db | firstname2 | lastname2 | Business_Location2 |
| changeto _first2 | changeto _last2 | changeto _company |

blank.db | Address | City | State |
| changeto _address | changeto _city | changeto _state |

blank.db | Zip | Joined | Expires | Category |
| changeto _zip | changeto _joied | changeto _exp | changeto _status |

blank.db | Convivuim |
| changeto _conv |

sfsf.DB | First | Last | First_name2 | Last_name2 | Company | Address |
| _first | _last | _first2 | _last2 | _company | _address |

sfsf.DB | City | State | Zip | Phone | New | Email | Alt_Email |
| _city | _state | _zip | _phone | _new | _email | _email2 |

sfsf.DB | Expiration | Convivium | Joined | Status |
| _exp | _conv | _joied | _status |

EndQuery

..and
2) The above would, I think, onlyh show the fields with example elements. Could I, theoretically, put example elements in all fields of blank.db?

Working on other methods, but I'd appreciate your opinions.

Thanks.
 
The above goes easily with an insert query, by the way, but I'd like to know why changeto doesn't work. Must there be files present to use this method?
 
Oh, Duh. (blush)

It's been a while, and I think I actually figured it out. Not sure how I did it, though.


Thanks. JLL
