<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Dear List:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>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. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The SQL is:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>UPDATE tblInvoiceDetail SET
tblInvoiceDetail.fldInvoiceDetailPPV = """",
tblInvoiceDetail.fldInvoiceDetailVariancePercent = 0;</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It's setting one field to blank the other to
0.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Is there a way to make it run any
faster?</FONT></DIV>
