SELECT admin.UserName, admin.AdminID, workorders.WorkOrderID, workorders.CreateDate, workorders.Location, workorders.WorkOrderName, workorders.FormName, workorders.STATUS, workorders.Notes, workorders.pod FROM admin LEFT JOIN workorders ON (admin.AdminID = workorders.AdminID) WHERE admin.Retail1 = 'yes' I know it looks like a mess, but it should do the trick Ash www.ashleysheridan.co.uk
