    No one knows why msgbox doesn't work?

    Why can't users use Merge features in Word?

    I know if we use count(*), which will give us a total count. But what if I want to count a specific field including null values in the field. How should I do it? Thanks for your help.

    Syntax error, please help

    you're right, Leslie. Access 97 doesn't have such a functionality. If I did as ontheFly told me in SQL server, it worked fine: SELECT count([ID]) AS TotalIDs FROM (select distinct [ID] from myTable) Thanks for your help.

Can anyone tell me why...
