Default Importing of TABLES TO A BLANK DATABASE

I HAVE A DATABASE FOR 35 DISTRICTS. THERE ARE MASTERS WITH SPECIFIC NAMES
WITH THE NAMES OF THE DISTRICTS AS PART OF THE NAME OF THE MASTERS. I WANT
TO IMPORT OR COPY THE TABLES TO RESPECTIVE DATABASES THROUGH EITHER MACROS OR
CODE. CAN ANY BODY HELP ME OUT.

I think you will need to create 35 append queries (or one within a loop in
VBA that uses a variable). Each query to have criteria that looks for the
district within the master name field.

Criteria example (replace District with actual name):

Like(*District*)

I'm not clear on what you are trying to do ... (and please stop SHOUTING)

From your description, I can't tell if you are considering multiple
databases ("import/copy the tables to respective databases")?

If so, why? What business need are you trying to meet? If you'll tell us a
bit more about the problem to be solved (rather than the solution you're
considering), folks here may be able to offer alternate ideas.

Good luck!

Ditto on that Jeff. I noticed he said "DATABASES" so I assumed he wanted to
add to tables. I'm an old DBase person myself and used to call tables
databases.
