Thank you lupins46..... worked great :-)

Lupins - I get an error message 'a number or currency amount is required here' on the 2nd STKM.BIN_LOCATION Synapsevampire - ummm sorry ... I have no idea what to do with this :-)

Hi There was only one group for job no If I create a second group for due date it's still treating the job no as the primary sort If I reverse them I get garbage Is there someway to leave the 1 group (job no) in place but force it to sort by date first? Thanks Helen

Hi ... hoping you can help me again I have a report listing: Job No. Due Date Hours + more etc Without the detail hidden the report will list line after line, all showing the same job no. All lines with the same job no will have the same date - other fields will differ Have grouped...

Hi Yes, I've done a 'find' on it - not there I'm reluctant to create the structure as I'm not sure what's involved - the next section of the article says: Search through each of the listed 000n values to find the DriverDesc key that pertains to the dial-up adapter or modem. Double-click the...
