    order by amount of times something appears in a table

    There's a kind of query called a summary query - if you run Access's Query Wizard you should be able to figure out what to do from there, or you can just push the totals button in the query designer (the greek sigma symbol) and select 'sum' for the 'amount downloaded' field. Cheers K

    Queries

    The simple answer (I don't know if there's a more elegant one) would be: Totals: Iif(IsNull[field1],0,[field1] + Iif(IsNull[field2],0,[field2] + Iif(IsNull[field2],0,[field2]; This *should* work but it's off the top of my head. Look in VBA's help under 'iif' for its correct syntax if not...

    Autoforms in VBA

    Creating tables in VBA

    Hello. I would very much like to be able to create tables in Access's VB, beyond the use of 'runcommand acCmdNewObjectTable', ie. I would like to be able to specify, in VB, the attributes of each field. Is this even possible in Access or should I go use MySQL/C++? Thanks a lot. Kendrick
