Re: method to assign values to a field

Thanks. That's helpful, and I need all the help I can get.
(I'm not sure about the etiquette of the ListServe: do I thank people individually or on the list?)

A minor comment. You don't need to use the ALL RECORDS([ProgNotes])
line. The QUERY command automatically works on all of the records in
the table referred to.

In contrast the QUERY SELECTION command works on the currently selected
records. If you use QUERY SELECTION the ALL RECORDS command would not
be redundant.
