Hi,
To emulate the Decode function in Access you need to use multiple IIfs eg
Decode([YourField],"Val1","AltVal1","Val2","AltVal2","OtherwiseThis")
would be
IIf([YourField]="Val1","AltVal1",IIf([YourField]="Val2","AltVal2","OtherwiseThis"))
You could use a custom function, but if your query needs a large number of replacements, VBA would be much slower than IIfs.
