Ummmmm... except that this isn't the query I gave you... but I see your point -- apparently my original post wasn't very clear... here's a minor modification to join those 2 tables: select tblCasinos.casinoid, tblPoker.pokerid from tblCasinos, tblPoker where ',' + tblCasinos.poker + ',' like '%,' + tblPoker.pokerid + ',%' You may need to use convert(varchar,tblPoker.pokerid) if pokerid is an integer column in sql server or something similar if this is a different database -- but that basic structure will give you the needed data. > Damn I know there has to be a workaround but I can't think > what the heck it is. >> >>give this query a poke... err...
