Convert to Yes / No

[AndyShuter]

I have the following SQL Expression :
SELECT tblDeal.DealCode, UCase([HirerForename] & " " & [HirerSurname] & " " & [HirerBusinessName]) AS FullHirerName, UCase([DealerName] & " ( " & [DealerTownCity] & ")") AS FullDealerName, tblHirer.JointHirer, tblDeal.DateDealIn, UCase([CurrentStatus]) AS FullCurrentStatus, UCase([CurrentFinanceCo]) AS FullCurrFinCo, UCase([LastUser] & " / " & [LastUserDate]) AS FullLastUser, tblDeal.InUse, tblVehicles.VehicleRegNo, tblDeal.DealType, tblDealer.DealerName, tblDeal.LastUpdatedDate, tblDealer.DealerName, tblDeal.DateDealIn, tblRep.BrokerCode, tblHirer.HirerCurrPostcode, tblDealer.DealerTownCity, tblDealer.DealerFranchise1, tblDealer.DealerFranchise2, tblDealer.DealerFranchise3, tblDeal.LastUser, tblDeal.LastUserDate, tblHirer.HirerSurname, tblHirer.HirerBusinessName, tblHirer.HirerForename, tblHirer.ProposalType
FROM tblVehicles INNER JOIN (((tblBroker INNER JOIN ((tblRep INNER JOIN tblDealer ON tblRep.RepCode = tblDealer.RepCode) INNER JOIN tblDealerContacts ON tblDealer.DealerCode = tblDealerContacts.DealerCode) ON tblBroker.BrokerCode = tblRep.BrokerCode) INNER JOIN tblHirer ON tblDealerContacts.DealerContactCode = tblHirer.DealerContactCode) INNER JOIN tblDeal ON tblHirer.HirerCode = tblDeal.HirerCode) ON tblVehicles.VehicleCode = tblDeal.VehicleCode
WHERE (((tblDeal.DateDealIn)>=[Forms]![frmSearchCustomer]![Text110]) AND ((UCase([CurrentStatus]))<>"Deleted") AND ((tblVehicles.VehicleRegNo) Like "*" & [Forms]![frmSearchCustomer]![Combo96] & "*") AND ((tblDealer.DealerName) Like "*" & [Forms]![frmSearchCustomer]![Combo92] & "*") AND ((tblRep.BrokerCode)=[Forms]![frmIntro]![BrokerCode]) AND ((tblHirer.HirerCurrPostcode) Like "*" & [Forms]![frmSearchCustomer]![Combo100] & "*") AND ((tblHirer.HirerSurname) Like "*" & [Forms]![frmSearchCustomer]![Combo29] & "*"));

What I would really like to do is tell the query to dislpay YES or NO instead of 0 or -1 in the Joint Hirer field. Can anyone help please

Thanks

Your problem is that Yes/No is a derivative rather than elementary field. A Yes/No field is an Access item that uses an ANSI BYTE field (or is that SHORT INTEGER? I can never remember which one is ANSI SQL and which one is ANSI BASIC). Yes/No is represented by -1/0 (respectively).

To display the fields in a given way, you would have to format them. One way to do that is the IIF function, which for Yes/No fields would be easy. Something like IIF( {yesno field name}, "Y","N" ) Or you could spell them out if that was really important.

Look up IIF as a way to do a spot format of this type. It works only because it is a Yes/No field.
