Dlookup with dyamic "between" criteria stored in table

[Bkper087]

Is it possible to reference a table to check if a value is between two numbers and return a related field? I am using Dlookup, but I’m not sure what would go in the criteria field. I tried just using a relationship, but I cant figure out a way to make it work.



Here is an overview of related info:
I would like to display different messages based on a number. This number represents the days that have passed since the record was created. This number is currently in the query: qryClients

I have also created a table: tblMessages that has the fields ID, Message, DaysAging. This table stores the message I would like to have appear based on the number of dates that have passed.

I would assume that Dlookup would be best for this function, but since it would not be an exact match but rather a between type function, I’m not sure what that would look like. Any help would be appreciated.

Can you give examples of what you are expecting and what the table contains for Days?

Dlookup is for forms.
queries use joins on tables.

the query can find items if the table has a min and max

msg, min, max
low, 0, 10
med, 11, 20
hi, 21, 50

youd place your lookup table in the query ,NO JOINS, and criteria would as [field]>=tLookup.min and [field]<= tLookup.max
