But I'm afraid you've lost me, now. Let me try again. I'm working with a body of monthly 500 reports from which I need to distill certain information. For the report output (which will take the form of a matrix), assume column f is Brown_Eyes and assume row 5 is Big_Feet. I can easily imagine a query of the DB WHERE brown-eyes AND big_feet returns a list of 25 of the 500 db records. But what I want to do is ouput the COUNT, not a list of db records. Is this better? ------------------ Rick I don't think I understood the question. And, given that there's been no response in the last hour and a half, I suspect no one else did, either. To me, a matrix is simply an n-dimensional array where n > 1. In a 2-dimensional matrix, column f will intersect row 5 exactly once. Your query approach suggests that you are working with a matrix of n > 2. So you are looking for a count of (f, 5, x) is populated where x is the third dimension.
