Well, Doug, et al...

The problem with the queries I was running
and the data the was being returned turned out
to be the result of two problems...

The first...bad data...I had previously entered data
for another test run of this application and, I guess,
somewhere along the way I deleted some of the data
from some of the tables, so the data lacked
referential integrity.  (I think that's the right term...)

Also, on another query, which I didn't post, I should
have been using an inner join instead of a left join.
Once that was changed and the data cleaned up,
everything is working properly.

I didn't realize the data had changed...boy was this
thing driving me up a wall!

Thanks for everyone's input!

Rick

This is how I would proceed in troubleshooting this one.
