Hi Geoff,

    My apologies to all for duplicating your complete message, but it is
pertinent to my needs.  Later today, I will attempt to build two simple
tables, one to hold dealer information, the other to hold dealer inventory
information.  I plan to create a unique linking field in the dealer table
and link with that field.

    Should I just start with a DataModule, rather than trying to build a
query?

Thanks,

Duane
