I have an Access DB in which I am trying to construct a Query. In the first field there is the Document number followed by a number of fields 01 to 09. I want the query to take the results from a table (simple lookup with only one field "Find")then find all the corresponding fields (01 to 09)that match the Find and show against the Document number. What I am getting is the correct information but with a full list of document numbers most of which have no other info in 01 to 09. How can I get rid of document numbers that do not have an entry in 01 to 09.(See attachment)
 

I can't see your attachment because of firewall setup at work. I think you'll find the majority of people on this site have that situation. Try copy and paste to show your
data / examples.

A guess: WHERE Not(Somefield = "")

Actually, we can't see the attachment because it is not a valid URL.

you're example isn't helping any. Try to use the TGML tags to line up your data:

[tt]
Field1 Field2 Field3
data data data
[/tt]

I used the [ignore] [tt] stuff [/tt] [/ignore] tags to format the above.

And don't forget to post your actual SQL code.

FROM tblFind_Data, tblBMS_Docs_From;
 
You may add a WHERE clause:
Code:
SELECT ...
FROM tblFind_Data, tblBMS_Docs_From
WHERE tblFind_Data.data IN (tblBMS_Docs_From.[01],tblBMS_Docs_From.[02]],...,tblBMS_Docs_From.[27])

Hope This Helps, PH.
