kfb->Tools->Append Table Data (all)
Append Table Data (single) suits your purpose as it will copy/append table data from one source table to one destination table. In the Tools Applet you can also choose which column(s) to copy/append. It is NOT neccessary that the source table/column must have the SAME name with the destination table/column, but the two columns src->dest MUST have exactly the SAME datatype/ definition.
Append Table Data (all) will copy/append ALL tables in the source database to ALL tables in the destination database, one by one, in one go. No need to say ALL src->dest tables MUST have exactly the SAME definitions, and you cannot choose which columns to copy and which not to, since kfb will copy/append automatically from the very first column to the very last column, without stop.
If the source table has a column which does NOT exist in the destination table,
kfb->DDLs->Tables->Alter Table to add a new column in the dest table, then the above steps,
or
kfb->Tools->Copy/Create Table Structure. You can create a new (empty) table in the dest database exactly the SAME as the source. then simply copy the whole table over.
or
kfb->Views->Create View (from table), then
kfb->Tools->ViewToTable to change a View to a table, with FULL view data
There are many choises, only you know which will suit yours the best.
Yours
