Pam: sString = Replace(sString, "'", "''") sString = Variable Name. I prefix all variable names with one character that signifies the type. s = String: i = Integer, d = Decimal, b = Boolean, etc. Replace is the method / function that is called and the values passed in. I hope this helps to explain what is happening. Andy
