How long is too long? With 2 million records, and Jet, just how fast do you want it to be??? :) 

And about that blank -- do you really mean a zero-length string or did you really want Null?

  Dear List:

  I am running an update query on a table with 2,500,000 records and it's taking just a bit too long for the my and the client's liking.  
  The SQL is:

  UPDATE tblInvoiceDetail SET tblInvoiceDetail.fldInvoiceDetailPPV = """", tblInvoiceDetail.fldInvoiceDetailVariancePercent = 0;

  It's setting one field to blank the other to 0.

  Is there a way to make it run any faster?
