The problem is the data structure. You should not store lists of values in a field ;-)
1) break colors out into a seperate table (color_ID and color_name fields) 2) create a table that will hold product_ID and color_ID (this matches colors to a product) 3) delete your field with lists of colors and make sure there is one record for each color/product combo in the table mentioned in #2 above Alter your query to use a table joins between product/color/product_color tables HTH Cheers Bryan Stevenson B.Comm.
