Hey, plog...THANKS so much!!!!!!!!!!!! It worked. Know anything about Reports? I have a post on that forum that I really need help with and no one has responded...And like everything in my life, I needed it yesterday.....Have a great afternoon.

Re: Using a query to change data in a field-RESOLVED Tried to find the Prefix field next to the title (that's what I read in the FAQs, so I could mark this issue as Resolved, but of course, I couldn't locate it, so this issue is Resolved. And Kudos to Mr. John Big Booty for his never ending...

I hope I don't get in trouble for starting a new thread, but I can not find anything on the forum that has helped me with my little dilemma. I have a pretty nice report designed and I would like to add a Group Header (Access 2010). It's a basic report of a Name and Address File which is...

I would like to do just that. I've learned a ton already! I ran the query and I got the correct results. Yea! Congratulations to you! Now I'm working on copying it to use against the other tables and I think I got the answer from this forum. I hope it works. THANKS FOR ALL YOU'VE DONE.......

Thanks! But I feel so bad when I make this kind of a dumb mistake and it causes someone (Y O U) to bang your head. And then it's really bad when you realize just how stupid you are...I just want to learn really bad and I really do try to find the answers in books and online helps, but I guess...

Ok. Sorry. I'll try to find a forum for dumb beginners.

Understood. Right. No wonder you're confused.:confused:It has taken me all this time to realize your first two screen shots are for the query (I think) that I had already done and I missed completely that the second set of shots are the "update" function. I couldn't get off the "select" function...

If I haven't confused you enough, you really will be now.... I queried the original database table and pulled all of the "&" records and built a new table with those records only......In the original not all records had a "&" in the Title field;ie., Mr. & Mrs., so I now have a table with just...

Maybe my problem is that I have already queried my database and selected all of the records containing an "&" in the "Title" field. So I was trying to just change the "&" in those records residing in my query from the "&" to "and". Is that the problem. Should I be performing a select query...

I thought I did. But maybe that is the problem. I posted a reply late last night and I attached a screen shot, but I don't see it in the thread. I'm attaching it again. Thanks.

Ok, got a screen shot. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. Now I can't get it in this reply.

Hi.....I tried it I thought and then when I looked at the drop down window yours look different from mine....No wonder it didn't work for me. I must be on the wrong ribbon or something. And since I got this new computer, I can even capture a screen shot (or either I'm using the wrong keys-who...

Ok, I understand and you're right-I need to learn it (crawling before running). I'll be working on it today. THANKS BUNCHES!!!! I am so grateful.

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!! I haven't tried it yet, but I will. I don't understand why there seems to be so many steps. I also never dreamed I needed to do anything except enter correct information in the "Criteria" area of the dropdown window. So confused.:confused::confused::confused: I don't...

See, I don't understand why my post isn't with the most current ones you folks posted. I am confused.......

Wow! I am so sorry guys....I'm not only new to Access, I'm also new to Forums....I did research and read everything I could find with a similar title, but none of the answers worked for me. I thought I was supposed to start a new thread. I didn't realize that "reply" would keep me on the same...

:mad::mad::mad: I'm in a real crunch, and if you have time, you may want to look at my intro-I'm dumb, know very little about Access (any version-I have 2010) and I really need to replace and ampersand-&-in like a million records (I need not input the data) because I now know that Access doesn't...

To anyone who may be out there. I read this thread with regard to report width and I'm having the very same problem......The only thing is I've tried all of the suggestions and the pitiful part is the very first one seems to make the most sense to me, but I can't even find the edges to drag in...
