True. This is a one-shot so I was looking for the Q&D approach.  The
function would give a better result though.

Rocky,

Another way is to have a function that formats the address.  This allows for
more flexibility of screening out empty fields, include/exclude country,
formatting zip code for both 5 digit and 9 digit values, etc.
Just call the function and pass the values as parameters in the QBE.

Expr1: FormatAddres([fldVendorAddress1], [fldVendorAddress2],
[fldVendorAddress3], [fldVendorZipCode], [fldVendorCountry])

But will it work in the field name of the QBE?  vbCrLf didn't.  And therein
lay the problem.  For seniors.

Hi Rocky,

There's an easier parameter --> vbNewLine

Use this in place of chr(10) & chr(13).

Dear List:

I am trying to write an update query to transfer addresses in multiple
fields from one table to an address field in a second table which is a memo
field.

I put Expr1: [fldVendorAddress1] & Chr(10) & Chr(13) & [fldVendorAddress2] &
Chr(10) & Chr(13) & [fldVendorAddress3] & Chr(10) & Chr(13) &
[fldVendorZipCode] &  Chr(10) & Chr(13) & [fldVendorCountry] as the field in
the QBE grid.

but in the target table there are no hard carriage returns as I would expect
from & Chr(10 & Chr1(13). Even as a select query the results are all
concatenated.

Is there a trick to this?
