Access VBA DAO recordset for use as table in additional DAO recordset

Zone: Microsoft Access Database

Tags: vba, recordset, access, dao

What I would like to do is use 2 DAO recordset2, as below,

Dim db1 As DAO.Database
Dim rs1 As DAO.Recordset
Dim qdf1 As QueryDef
Set db1 = CurrentDb()
Set qdf1 = db1.CreateQueryDef("")
qdf1.SQL = "SELECT Table1.* " & _
"FROM Table1;"
Set rs1 = qdf1.OpenRecordset()

Dim db2 As DAO.Database
Dim rs2 As DAO.Recordset
Dim qdf2 As QueryDef
Set db2 = CurrentDb()
Set qdf2 = db2.CreateQueryDef("")
qdf2.SQL = "SELECT Table2.* " & _
"FROM Table2;"
Set rs2 = qdf2.OpenRecordset()

to create a third DAO recordset composed of a join query of the two previous, using the two DAO recordsets as the source tables, per the SQL below...

SELECT Table1.*, Table2.*
FROM Table1 INNER JOIN Table2 ON Table1.Field1 = Table2.Field2;

So something like

select rs1.*, rs2.*
from rs1 INNER JOIN rs2 on rs1.field1 = rs2.field2

however that select statement doesn't work as a qdf3.sql
Code samples would be appreciated, and are far more likely to get you points. ;-) Something in the syntax is what I'm missing I think
Thanks - Justin
