I AM WORKING WITH A TABLE THAT HAS TWO DIFFERENT ADDRESSES. ONE IS THE MAILING ADDRESS AND THE OTHER ONE IS THE SHIPPING ADDRESS. THE PROBLEM THAT I AM HAVING IS THAT FOR SOME CUSTOMERS, THE SHIPPING ADDRESS IS THE SAME ONE AS THE MAILING, OR VICEVERSA.<br><br>SOME OF THE&nbsp;&nbsp;MAILING ADDRESSES AR EMPTY, AND I HAVE TO UPDATE THEM WITH THE ENTRIES ON THE SHIPPING ADDRESS EVERY TIME I COPY THA TABLE.&nbsp;&nbsp;THIS INFORMATION COMES FROM ANOTHER DATABASE PROGRAM THAT IS USED BY ANOTHER DEPARTMENT.<br><br>IN ORDER TO MAKE MY LIFE EASIER, I WAS THINKING ABOUT DOING A QUERY IN WHICH I COULD TELL THE PROGRAMM THAT IF A SPECIFIC FIELD IS NULL TO FILL IT IN WITH &quot;X&quot; OR &quot;Y&quot; FIELD, THAT WAY THE INFORMATION WILL BE UPDATED AUTOMATICALLY.<br><br>I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO DO THIS.<br><br>COULD YOU GIVE ME INSTRUCTIONS? SUGGESTIONS? HELP?<br><br>THANK YOU
