Ok, if you NZ() you can shove a value in for the null in access. Took 5 different MVPs before the sixth came in with that little trick.
I did it in the report via: =IIf(Len(Trim([Trouser 1] & ""))>0,1,0)+IIf(Len(Trim([Trouser 2] & ""))>0,1,0)+IIf(Len(Trim([Trouser 3] & ""))>0,1,0)+IIf(Len(Trim([Trouser 4] & ""))>0,1,0) So you can see that I was forcing the freaking "" in there.
