Never mind I figured out the solution using the "substitute" function. Of course after I sent the email : (

Hi Folks:

I have a print production database that allows me to create production tickets for each print job we do as well as keep them together as a package. Now I'm adding direct mail to the database which may involve all or only a few of the parts of the print package. I want to identify the individual pieces that will mail using a common mail list. I have a check box field that can assign a letter or ALL to the mail list and I can combine that letter to the part number.

Looks like this: partnumber&mailcode = 09-1234-00A where A id the mail code. But the part might be associated with more than one ,mail list involved in the same print package. In other words there may be up to five or six different mail lists that are made up of various parts of the print package. Using a check box I can only get the first letter to appear in the code and not all of the letters checked.

So what I want to do is create a number that reflects all the mail list associated with that part of the print package. it might look like this: 09-1234-00ABC.

Any ideas before I create 5 different fields for each of the possible mail lists?

Thanks as always for your sage advice,
Peter
