Bonnie,

Go for it.  Code is easy, it just has to be taken one step at a time.  Doing
that will make you TRULY dangerous.  ;-)

I know compared to you guys I'm a real novice.  I've done a lot of
databases and had to update a lot of fields, but I've always done it
with update queries and macros. (I'm terrified of  code and I don't
understand what it means at all).  But any time I've had to update a
field based on an entry to a field in a record, I've always had to save
the record before it would update.  So in the properties of the field I
would tell it to run a macro after update.  The macro has a save record
command and an open query command.  The query is an update query.   I
know it's probably slower than code, but it works for me.

Hi Virginia

Well, if your form somehow is bound to table "DocumentList" and you
use

  intMax = DMax(..., "DocumentList", ..)

and this doesn't work, something else that prevents DocumentList from
being updated must be going on.
