>Instead of Empty(Allt(Sourcetable.fieldC)) you can simply use Empty(Sourcetable.fieldC). As I write very often, Alltrim() is used way too often.

You are right. I just copy-pasted it. :)

ALLTRIM is used to often and on meaningless places. In fact, the statement

..
 IIF(EMPTY(Sourcetable.fieldC), "No LIsting Provided", Sourcetable.fieldC);
..

would do, except Field_C is Varchar. Even then, most likely TRIM() will be enough.
