[mso] Re: MS Access 2003 - automating a data export - pointers?

One could add yes/no Boolean field to the table, and when exporting check as
exported. Use a query whereby selects all where "Exported=false"

When you export it, and looping through all the records, then simply set it
to true so the next time the query "eliminates" those.

Subject: [mso] MS Access 2003 - automating a data export - pointers?

I need to automatically export only recently entered records from a single
table Access database without exporting records which have been previously
exported. Is there a way to "flag" records as having already been exported?
Basically I want to automatically retrieve records that an operator has
entered on the previous workweek day.  Due to weekends, holidays, etc. I
don't see how I can use any calendar driven scheme for the export. I am
experienced in Access and have working knowledge of VBA but cannot seem to
get the light bulb to turn on in my head about the best way to do it. Is
there a VBA function or routine or any macro available in Access?  I welcome
any and all suggestions and I'm sure I'm going to go "Duh" when you guys
point out the solution.  My little brain is simply not working on this one.
 
Thanks in advance
Allan F. Eddy
