Thank you very much

Would you mind telling me when or what the difference is for using the " or ( or [, many times I have sat here trying one or the other etc till the design works the way I want it to. Thanks again for such a quick response

Strings need to be surrounded (delimited) with some chatacter that is *not* in the string. In VBA we use either single quote ' or double quote "; usually the double quote "Your String". Parens () and brackets [] have other uses in VBA and it can get involved when describing their use. The Access help might be a place to look for a description. Picking up a good book on Access and VBA is another avenue you could persue.
