Ok...that does make sense and I really appreciate the time you took to jot that down...I have a tricky aspect though...I wonder if I can make that range grow if a new product is added. It's an inventory system, and they might get a new product in so a set range might prove troublesome in that...

Me again! I thought I should rephrase the question. How would I go about creating an update query that would update fields in a table based on fields in another table. I have addresses ...but these addresses contain the wrong counties. I have a table that has all the cities and their...
