Dennis - Disregard my earlier request for clarification on removing all the burial notes - I was able to apply the formula through the LTools feature on a test of one of my saved files. It works really great, but your 'SQL...' caution is not to be taken lightly! :-) is a veritable axiom - the change occurred in a blink of an eye. I did discover that the file had to be 'saved' out of Access or it rendered the database useless (error). I had to delete it and re-save a valid file to that location. I'm still trying to learn the LTools and its features - it is pretty powerful. Thanks for the formula - I'll have to study some of the others now that I see how they work.

and better yet is there a way to remove ALL of the burial notes?

I don't know of a way to do it in Legacy. But you can easily do it using
MS Access or another tool.

        UPDATE tblIR SET tblIR.BuriedNote = ""
