Import Question

I am running an Import from an Access database into my SQL Server 2000
database.
The problem is that when I run this process it Appends the Access details to
the SQL Server when I want to replace the SQL Server data.
Can anyone tell me how to get around this. I'm pretty new to this sort of
thing.
TIAPoppy,
You can make use of DTS (SQL Server) which will have an option to "drop existing table" or "replace
existing date". For instance if you open DTS import/export wizard. choose source and destination of
which one will be access. On the next screen select "copy tables/views from source database" . on
the next screen select the required tables to transfer and click on button of "transform" you will
get relevant options here to transfer the data. The one which will be relevent to you will be
"delete rows in destination table"
