It sounds like you want to combine records from two tables (so if one contains records APPLE, ORANGE, PLUM, and the other contains records LETTUCE and ONION you want a single recordset containing APPLE, LETTUCE, ONION, ORANGE, and PLUM.
What you need is a "union query".
1) Make a query which selects the field(s) you want from the first table.
2) With the query open in design view, select SQL from the view menu.
3) If your table is called tblFruits the query's SQL will look something like this:
SELECT tblFruits.*
FROM tblFruits
ORDER BY tblFruits.Name;
4) To include another table called tblVegetables, change the code as follows:
SELECT tblFruits.*
FROM tblFruits
UNION SELECT tblVegetables.*
FROM tblVegetables
ORDER BY tblFruits.Name;
5) There's other customisation you can do - see the help file.
