This example demonstrates how you can simplify an IIF function Instead of: varTemp = IIf(IsNull(varFreight), 0, varFreight) You could use: varResult = IIf(Nz(varFreight) > 50, "High", "Low") Helen Feddema offers a suggestion about forcing a zero when Nz() doesn't work When you want to display zeroes in text boxes (or datasheet columns) when there is no value in a field, the standard method is to surround the value with the Nz() function, to convert a Null value to a zero. However, this doesn't always work, especially in Access 2003, which is much more data type-sensitive than previous versions. In these cases, you can force a zero to appear instead of a blank by using two functions: first Nz() and then the appropriate numeric data type conversion function, such as CLng or CDbl. Here is a sample expression that will yield a zero when appropriate: Download a sample from: ACCESS Watch See all Topics access Labels: Functions, General, Macros, Reference, Shortcuts, Tips, Tutorials, VBA <Doug Klippert@ 3:09 AM
