    Can multiple Access databases report to one other Access database?


    Hi All,
    Is it possible for several Access databases (all designed the same) to report to another final Access database?

    sure, In the FINAL db, link your needed tables from the 'other' dbs,
    run queries , or reports on this.

    Thank you!
    Just so I'm clear though. The Final db would hold the queries and reports but draw it's required information from the other initial db's. So I could link 5 normal db's to my 1 final reporting db?
    Do you know if there's a tutorial for setting up such links as I've never had the need before.
    Thank you for your help.

    sounds right.
    Just do external db, access, and pick your db and tables.
