Append query help

Hi,
I have 2 tables, let's say A and B. Both tables are basically the
same with a few differences. Table A has records from 1/1/04 to
8/13/06, the date/time field is one field with date/time format, about
10 other fields are in text format but need to be changed to number
format. All other fields are exactly the same and don't need to be
changed. Table B has records from 8/13/06 - 12/31/06, with a date
field with text type and a time field with text type, with the 10
other fields in the proper number type.

I need to make one table to include all records from 1/1/04 to
12/31/06, with date/time field in one field with date/time type, and
the other 10 fields I mentioned to be in the number type and the rest
of the fields to remain the same.

I have tried to do this with a MakeTable querie but that didn't work.
I also tried with an append querie but that didn't work either. I
don't know what I am doing wrong. Each way I tried I ended up only
with the records for 8/13/06 - 12/31/06. I also couldn't get the date/
time field to change from 2 fields to one field with the type as date/
time.

Thanks for any help you can give me.
