    If you can see all the data in the Data view, that would suggest the Append' has worked correctly.  Can you confirm this please?

     

    "When I make a filter it shows both tables data, but when I filter it to the second tables data the table goes blank" -> this suggests that the filter on the second table is not doing what you expect it to do.  

     

    Here are some options:

    You could try filtering in Data view using the column dropdowns to experiment.   You could post pictures of the filtering to show us what works and what doesn't.
