    For MS Access
    =============
    INSERT INTO Table1 IN 'ExternalDatabasePath1' SELECT *
    FROM Table1 IN 'ExternalDatabasePath2';
    where externaldatabasepath1 & 2 are something like c:\databases\db1.mdb & c:\databases\db2.mdb
    (INSERT INTO Table1 SELECT * FROM Table2 IN 'c:/aaa/bbb/Database.mdb')

    Database, which engine is understood by VB
    =====================================
    You can also add a type to the end of the IN clause such as "dBASE IV" e.g.,

    INSERT INTO Table1 IN 'ExtDB' 'dBASE IV' SELECT * ....

    'Another example insert to external db
    Dim db as database
    Set db = Workspaces(0).OpenDatabase(app.path & "Biblio.mdb")
    db.execute "SELECT * INTO [dBase III;DATABASE="C:My Documents].[test] FROM [authors]"

    By using the brackets and dot operator, you get a completely proper output in the ISAM database type of
    your choice. Also, if you choose Text as the database type, the statement creates a Schema.ini for you
    automatically, or adds a new section for your new data file to a Schema.ini already in the path folder.
