Vlad,
Sorry I haven't answered yet, I have been plugging away at work overload and tweaking the code to what I am trying to do. It works like a charm with the parent & Parent with Child. I have yet to figure out to make the count for Parent with out child. qryFinalSort worked beautifully for the single platform_id and now I am trying to put it within the parent with child loopset to count dmax+1 on that platform_id, then rstID.movenext to the next platform. I should get a count of less than 40. I really appreciate your help.
Thanks!
Wayne
