RE: access
Hi Hazel
Thank you for your question
The closest function is DLookup, D standing for domain.
It finds a value maching specified criteria in a specified field in a specified table. It can be used in a macro, query or calculated control on a form or report.
It has the following parameters.
expr - The field value you wish to return
Domain - The table containing the field
Criteria - An expression that limits the data to be returned
an example would look something like this
DLookup("[ProductName]", "Products", "[SupplierName] = John")
Hope this is helps
Regards
Stephen
