Validate before inserting data from another table - query or vba code?

Posted 07 July 2012 - 07:17 AM

Need to know which route I should be researching to make the following happen.

Looking to insert data into specific columns in a table from specific columns in another table. The data has to be validated before inserted.

Validating for example a field called TYPE where it's either NEW, MINT, GREAT CONDITION, USED and OLD. If there is a typo it cannot go into the table

I tried doing an append query but get an error when I run. The Insert Into statement contains an unknown field...
but when I view I see the data and no errors.

I figured out the error on the append query.
