Question : Merging Linked Tables

I am using Access to generate reports out of a share point whith 4 seperate lists (identiccal data, just different groups-lists).  I have them linked in Access so that updating done in the share point list is automatically done in the Access Table for that list.  However, I am stuck here, I can generate a merged table using update etc. but it is static and does not show the changes as they are made in share point.  I am having trouble building a union query which would keep the merged tables updated.

So in bullets here is what I need to do:
Goal:
One Report that shows same data from all 4 separate lists

What I have;
Share Point with 4 lists (identical fields)
Linked table in Access for each list (identical fields)

What I am trying to do:
Create a Query that will show the updated "live" data from the linked tables so that I can use it in reports

What I have not been able to figure out:
How to create a query or table I can use for reports and forms that keeps the updated information from the 4 linked tables

Answer : Merging Linked Tables

You make a new query, design view, add no tables. And use below for SQL. Save.

This will repeat lines
Select * from Table1
Union all
Select * from Table2
Union all
Select * from Table3
Union all
Select * from Table4

This will only be unique lines.
Select * from Table1
Union
Select * from Table2
Union
Select * from Table3
Union
Select * from Table4
