Hi Michelle,
>Heh... Actually, I think John Kozial(sp?) has the quickest at around 20 seconds.
John Koziol :) This word 'koziol' or 'kozel' means (how to say?) - male goat in Russian :) and as John explained to me in one thread, he has Polish ancessors (?sp)... In Poland the meanning of this word is different and much more respectful, if I remember correctly, it means goats owner :)
Anyway, enough about John and let's talk about this particular problem.

>I guess in your case it would be better to temporarily set the filter off.
It's a index filtered, not the Filter. So I'll take it to SET ORDER To.
It's really not an issue for me because I don't write apps. All I do is modify SBT and their method of doing anything bears no resemblance to anything a sane programmer would do. :)

Thanks anyway.

>>>If you have a filter, then a blank record is likely not meeting the criteria of that filter, and therefore not showing up. You could use INSERT INTO instead and pre-fill it with values that match the filter.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
