使用ms访问权限更新本地表，而无需从sharepoint导入整个列表

Question

I have a bit of a dilema concerning a large database. I have a database where all the data is kept on a sharepoint server. The cache is cleared everytime database is closed.

My problem is that the parts number list is quite large (12200 records) and needs to be cached fully every time access is open. This list however is fairly static so I want to make it static and simply run an update to apply changes that occured when the access app is opened.

I do not know how to do that, I know I can link the sharepoint list and simply update the local list with sql. This however defeats the purpose since access will have to first download the whole data from sharepoint to begin with.

If you just need to update the local table with the fresh data from the SharePoint table, you could create a query that simply overwrites the old table from the SharePoint Table.

For example: After you link SharepointTableA, create a query

SELECT SharePointTableA.* INTO LocalTableB  FROM SharePointTableA 

This will overwrite all the contents of the local table with the data from the SharePoint Table.

unless there's a specific reason why you don't want to overwrite records...
