Hello,

I have 2 fields. I have Job # and GL #.

I need to exclude from the GL field, values that are 1234, but ONLY if the
Job # = 999999.

I have tried using this formula in the criteria of the GL# field in my query:

IIf([Job #]=999999,<>1234,[GL #])

and instead of 999999 still showing up in the query and excluding GL# 1234,
999999 doesn't show up at all!

What am I doing wrong??

Thank you!!!!!!!!

IIf([Job #]<>999999, [GL #], IIf([GL #]=1234, Null, [GL #]))

I'm assuming by exclude that you mean Null.

You can't pass an operator such as <> in this way. Could you post the entire
SQL of the query? I would guess you will need a clause such as

([Job #] = 999999 AND [GL #] <> 1234) OR ([Job #] <> 999999)
