Hello there,
I have a a table called "DATAFILENAMES" this table contains rows with the direcrotory of files. (1 Column).
The files are ACCESS files (yeah I am using access). the challange I have is the the Access files are created automatically, and placed into a folder. and each time there is a new file added I need to create the connection to that files and the update the "MAINDATABASE" to append that table.
I have tried to do this with from folder option but it is way to slow (no idea why). and I get the below error when there are a few more files:
"DataFormat.Error: The number of items in the list is too large. Buffered lists can support up to 2147483647 items and streamed lists can support up to 4503599627370496 items.
Details:
2147483648"
so what I would like to be able to do (and I think it is a function that I need - but I am just guessing), is to be automate the manual task that I am doing. The list of the files paths/directories refreshes, then based on that a "Loop" to append that data.
I hope that makes sense?
