I found thought that it was easier to export to a CSV file and link the tables I wanted in Access to the files in the import_export folder. Doing it this way I do not have to run code each time I dump to update the Access tables.

Hope that made some sense. If not let me know and I will try again.

Good Luck!
I suppose linking it would make things a bit easier, but right now, I am trying to get all the years into a single database, which has become a bit of a complicated project. Basically, I have to add year fields to any place where there are no years and such. In this case, I need to have the data in unalterable tables rather than linked. I actually haven't worked on this in several weeks, so I've gotten a little fuzzy on exactly what I was doing now.
