Default Table overlay

I need to import tables from one access database to another, and overlay that table, but overlay only entries which have changed. Is that possible?

You'll need to *link* to the remote table, and run an Update query.
Join the two tables, use criteria to find the records which have
changed, and Update the local table fields to

[remotetable].[fieldname]
