    Count of new records Appended to Table

    How can I know the number of new records, if any, that were Appended to [New Style].[Style] from [TblNewBillingStyle].[Style] on any given day?

    Without using Access default Error Message, (Couldn't append all records due to validations rules, no duplicates)



    There are currently 34,397 records in [New Style]. if that matters.

    Going forward, I would recommend adding a few fields to your destination field ("Source" and "Added Date"), and have your Append Query populate that fields when it runs.

    There is no [New Style].[Date].

    I could add a [New Style].[Date] and set it's Default Value to "=Date()"? (Which only affects New Records, right)?

    Then, either create a Query to find the Date, or just look at the [New Billing].[Date]?

    Yes, default value only applies to new records. You'd need a Totals query to count the records for a date. If you want to know for any particular date, create a little form that accepts a date input - the textbox will automatically provide a calendar control if you format it to Date data type or bind it to a date field. You could just use a query parameter prompt but that will allow invalid dates to be entered.
