Stephen,
So I may be missing the point, but what is it exactly that your complaining about? The fact that most MVP's don't know what their talking about, that you don't know Access, or that the database is not properly designed?
Jim.

Ok, if you NZ() you can shove a value in for the null in access. Took 5 different MVPs before the sixth came in with that little trick.
I did it in the report via: =IIf(Len(Trim([Trouser 1] & ""))>0,1,0)+IIf(Len(Trim([Trouser 2] & ""))>0,1,0)+IIf(Len(Trim([Trouser 3] & ""))>0,1,0)+IIf(Len(Trim([Trouser 4] & ""))>0,1,0)
So you can see that I was forcing the freaking "" in there.
Repeat after me, access sucks.
