Hi Duane,
Thank you for your help with this. I copied and pasted the query you suggested into SQL and ran it. I get the following error: Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression 'User_ID Left(Gender,1)'.

gender Text (Male or Female)
race1 Text (AmericanIndian)
race2...

Skip--this is terrific. Thanks so much. I must admit that I feel like a dope now that I see how you set this up. Some days the old synapses just don't fire. Thanks again.

I am creating a database of multiple choice questions that will be used to generate pre and post tests. The master test is currently about 60 questions in length, but will grow over time. Answer sets range on an average of 4-5 per question, and each answer set is different (unique to that...
