    Unrelated table as criteria

    I have a main table that contains a text string in a field called Category. Normally, I'd just put a LIKE "*looking for*" string in the query criteria field. But I have over 2,000 text strings that I need to use as criteria (a one-time only proposition, thank heavens). I'm looking for any form...

    Crerating a List of Queries for Documentation

    I'm attempting to create documentation for an existing Access database - literally, it's a work-flow document. It was relatively easy typing out the list of tables, modules, and Macros, but I have god-only-knows how many queries. Is there any way to export a text list of query names to include...

    I'd like to run a search and replace on a query result to remove carriage returns, linek breaks and tabs from the data. I know that MSWord has character aliases that will allow you to do a search and replace - does Access have an equivalent for these? Thanks! Susan
