can you post the SQL statement executed and also the data type of each of the field.

hi, just to expound on Dave's input. ;)

You can use any valid expression to determine which records the SQL statement returns. The where filter can take any of the forms in the following examples.

String values are delimited with single quotes

strSQL="SELECT . . . WHERE State='CA'"

while numeric values are stated as numbers that can contain decimals.

strSQL="SELECT . . . WHERE Payments.Amount >= 1000"

Date literals must be in U.S. format. A date literal is any sequence of characters with a valid format that is delimited by a hash sign (#).

strSQL="SELECT . . . WHERE Orders.ShipDate <= #12/31/01#"

Whilst the above are SELECT examples, they apply to INSERT, UPDATE, and whatever SQL as well. :D

it's ok but if i enter the string "yes" in field(yes/no)type instead of true or false will it work?
thank you for all

In MS Access 2000, you can use either Yes/No, True/False, or On/Off for logical fields. ;)
