RE: [MS_AccessPros] Grouping on multiple criteria question

Jim-

Is that what you're putting in the Critera on the query grid? You would
normally use LIKE with a wildcard of some sort. If you truly want to do
grouping, then you should do something like:

Geo Code Group: IIf([Geo Code] = "AB6 A" Or [Geo Code] = "AB6 B" Or [Geo
Code] = "AB6 C" Or [Geo Code] = "CD6 A", 1, IIf([Geo Code] = "CD7 A" Or [Geo
Code] = "CD7 C", 2, IIf( .... , 3, IIf( ... , 4, 5))))

Then GROUP BY Geo Code Group.

Subject: [MS_AccessPros] Grouping on multiple criteria question

Hello all,

I have 20 geographical codes for an area that I would like to create a query
that will group multiple geographical areas into 5 areas. I tried to create
a query that had the following

Geo Code 1: [Geo Code]=Like "AB6 A" Or "AB6 B" Or "AB6 C" Or " CD6 A"
Geo Code 2: [Geo Code]Like "CD7 A" Or "CD7 C"
Geo Code 3: [Geo Code]Like " CD6 B" Or "CD6 C" Or "CD6 D"
Geo Code 4: [Geo Code]
Geo Code 5: [Geo Code]

But it returns no records after the first geo code 1.

Is there a way of grouping these codes into bigger areas?

Thank You

Jim Wagner
