    Import from crazy Excel file

    IIF - help in query & labels

    mresann, thanks for the rapid reply. I pasted your statement into the query grid, but it returned an error, stating that there were the wrong number of arguments. What you wrote makes sense...I'm guessing that the punctuation may be off ?? Hoping for a reply :)
