It's been a while since I've done this, does anybody remember:

If I have 2 tables:

tblPerson (
iPersonID int
szPersonDesc varchar
iPersonType int
)

tblPersonType (
iPersonType int
szPersonType varchar
)

iPersonType = iPersonType (foreign key between the 2 tables)

iPersonType is a list in the form of 1,2,4,8,16,32,64

so, let's suppose that szPersonType for 8 is lawyer and szPerson type
for 2 is redhead

a value of iPersonType of 10 would mean redhead lawyer.

I'd like a query that looks for lawyers (ie. iPerson type is any number
from 8 to 15 or 16+8=32 or 16+8+4=28 or  16+8+1=29 or 16+8+4+2=30 or
32+8=40 or 32+8+4=44 ,etc. up to the max(iPersonType))
