Because MS Access doesn't have functionality to compare data in a "current" to a "next" record this is implemented as an iterative process in Module ''linking'' Sub ''populate_linking_pairs'' which populates the [[linking_pairs table]].  
Because MS Access doesn't have functionality to compare data in a "current" to a "next" record this is implemented as an iterative process in Module ''linking'' Sub ''populate_linking_pairs'' which populates the [[linking_pairs table]].
 
The process considers the output of
::SELECT L_PHI.PHIN, L_Log.Arrive_DtTm, L_Log.D_ID, IIf(Not IsNull([accept_dttm]),[accept_dttm],[arrive_dttm]) AS adm
::FROM L_Log INNER JOIN L_PHI ON L_Log.D_ID = L_PHI.D_ID
::ORDER BY L_PHI.PHIN, IIf(Not IsNull([accept_dttm]),[accept_dttm],[arrive_dttm]);
 
For any line that has the same PHIN as the previous line it generates a record in [[linking_pairs table]] of the two D_IDs.
