It is a sequence of information and approvals for each subject, grade,
homework and tests.
If a student is taking English then we need to show all scorces given and
the relationship to the previous grad or score. With each entry you must
always carrt fields of data for who reviewed it, approved it, made
suggestions or rejected the educational technique used. There is also a
comparison made to grades when the student goes into the next level of
education. For example from grade school to middles school, from middle
school to junior high and from junior high to college.
We even have to know that the student entered college and if that student
graduated or not.
The designers at Fort Hood, indicated iot was the toughest applications they
have ever seen. Microsoft consultants were amazed at what the attorney's in
Washington DC want us to keep an accounting of.
The bad data message comes from an append query. The tables are suppose to
be identical but for some reason this happens once in a while. I eventually
find out where the problem is, but it takes so long.
Thanks for the interest.

Hi -
How did you determine that 7 records had 'bad' data? Did MS Access give you
an error message on a
data import, or did you just happen to notice the bad data? If the 'bad'
data is actually in the tables, then it is not likely to be a problem with MS
Access - more likely to be a problem with the source of the data.
As has been pointed out, 225 fields is a REALLY large table - can you give us
an idea of what it contains? It might be that there is a much more efficient
way of reaching your goal.

I have a table of 19,000 records with about 225 fields in each record. It is
not an indexed table, just a table of educational transactions.
Some how when I go to update the historical table seven (7) records have
gotten some bad info in them. I know I can copy the table to another
database and look at them one field at a time, but this will take forever.
Does anyone know a quick method of finding the seven bad records?
Thanks in Advance
