Selecting single row from access table

[saddist]

Hello,

I have an access table with fields: ID, Name, Surname, Training. I would like to select every single row in this table to operate on it. Alghoritm would look something like that:
i = 1 to all_rows
1. Select i row
2. Check if ID exists in EMPLOYEES table
3. Read ID, Name and Surname and insert it in table EMPLOYEES
4. Read ID and Training and insert it in table PAST_TRAINIGS
5. Return to 1

How can I do that in Visual Basic code? The problem is in selecting every each row and columns in this row.

Cheers!

Search for "Update Query" in the help file, will give you everything you need.

You are missing the point here. I don't want to have an update query. I wrote I want it to be done via VBA code and I have my reasons. Plus I want it done just as in algorithm I wrote in first post.

Use the ADO recordset. The syntax is something like this

Function CycleThroughRecords
Dim dbs as Database
Dim rs as Recordset
set dbs=CurrentDB
set rs=dbs.openRecordset("SELECT  whatever from [table] where...")
rs.movefirst
while not rs.EOF
       .<manipulte records>
        rs.movenext
wend
set rs=nothing
set dbs=nothing
End Function

This should be enough to get you started. The RecordSet object allows very granular access to the data, but yiu can read about that yourself
