I skimmed (gotta run). If that is what you get when putting the query from design or sql view to datasheet view, what you get is the number of records that will be affected. It's not necessarily the result - unless the action query/sql is going to put a whole lot of nulls or zls into the records (but the datasheet view won't tell you that). Run the query and the warning will tell you how many records will be affected, giving you an idea of whether or not that's right. You can always cancel. That assumes you have not disabled warnings.
The more we hear silence, the more we begin to think about our value in this universe.
