Default Combining tables

I was getting the generic "sorry, can't do that" error when
I tried to import several Excel worksheets into 1 Access
table, so I brought them over as separate tables.
How can I combine them now into one table? I'd rather do
that than use a query to pull them all together.

I would create one new local table, then run append
queries to add each of the excel worksheets to the one
new table.

Doh! Sorry - Monday morning and all. And I normally shy
from action queries, which is why an append didn't occur to
me.
