    Query for a parameter across all tables

    I have multiple tables open for a query, all with the same format (log data for various runs of a process). Is there an easy way to have a query pull ALL of the results of a particular column/parameter? For example, I want to create a table that has every "Power" column from all of the tables I am looking at.

    Thanks

    It sounds to me like you need a separate APPEND query for each table that you are retrieving data from. If you pull data from more than one table with one query, you need a field from each table to join, and your results of the query will be dependant upon that join.
    Is your code running too slowly?
    Does your workbook or database have a bunch of duplicate pieces of data?

    It will save both time and effort in the long run!
