Hi,
I have just created a table (TABLE A) with the following fields (id :
autonumber, town : text) which contains a list of towns, cities, etc. to go
along with another table (TABLE B) filled with many fields including a town
field which contains town names, but i wish to replace the town field names
in TABLE B with the id number in TABLE A, if the town of TABLE A matches the
town of TABLE B.
(e.g - Table A)
ID TOWN
1 London
2 Bristol
3 Coventry
(Table B)
TOWN
London
Bristol
London
Coventry
Coventry
TABLE B needs to be changed to :
TOWN
1
2
1
3
3
Is there any way it can be automatically changed? as there are thousands of
records I need to amend!
Thanks
