Duplicate current record to another table upon record exit

I have two identical tables only one of them has data inputted into it the other table has no user access.

 

After a user has created a new record in Table A i want all of the data to be duplicated into Table B and just stored there. This is because Table A can later have individual records deleted and we need to keep a backup of all the data entered into Table A

I did write and export script which exported the record from Table A to excel and then imported the excel file into Table B but this does not work very well over our network.

 

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

​I would suggest you rethink your overall strategy, as it makes very little sense to allow users to delete records but also want to keep them.
