Re: [MS_AccessPros] Sorting a large table

 

Eoin-

If you have indexes on the ORDER BY (sort) fields, it shouldn't die.  To get the records in VBA in a Recordset, you have to open a query on your table with an ORDER BY clause.

Hi

I have to sort a fairly large table & do some simple stuff with it.

I can open the table & sort it, but if I then go back to VBA the program, obviously, doesn't know about the sort.

A query to sort a few million records just dies.

Any ideas?

Thanks
