Hi

I have a make table query which is linked to several tables from SQl and this works fine.
I want to be able to add a field when running the query (like a memo field, where I can add data into.
This data will then go under the relevant row in a report (will access It through a form

What I cannot figure out is how to create the text field when running the memo query (if it is possible)
Maybe it could be done through a form and then updated to the row number.
Any ideas how to achieve this please (without to much code if possible, still learning)

Thanks
 
how about
select Field1,field2, null as field3
into newtable
from oldtable
 
I ended up adding this into the query in the end

Lineinfo: (" ")

All working now, thanks for the reply
