Doh!

I'm not carrying over the value from record to record. All I need is a variable to store it to.

Double doh!

>Showing it where? Your replace command seems somewhat at odds with what you are saying you want to do. The replace will replace each row with the content of it's own header1. It won't be concatenating header1's together.

If I use a character, like "|" then I get all three values concantenated together separated by the "|" character. Why am I losing the first two values when I use "CHR(13)?" I can also duplicate this behavior in the command window using variables.
