copy field properties

[KK]

Hello,

Is there a way of copying the field properties (datatype, general, lookup)
from one field to another?

Thanks

KK

No, not to copy from one existing field to another there isn't. You can,
however, select a particular field when your table is in Design mode and
paste it as a second instance (so that all you need to do is change the name
of the field).

BTW, since you specifically mention lookup properties in your post, have you
read "The Evils of Lookup Fields in Tables" at
http://www.mvps.org/access/lookupfields.htm?
