Jim, I don't think you can actually equate them, but it seems like the original is based on the 1 to 100 scale, so 1 to 10 ought to be easier to tweak than 1 to 5. That was my only thinking. But yes, 1 could equate to 0 to 10, 2 to 11 to 20, and so on. It's early, only a few cups of coffee and math is NOT my area, but I don't so how you can actually replace one with the other without including decimal values -- 1 to 10 or 1 to 5 -- neither's going to work out to what you're doing now -- but I would "think" that 1 to 10 would get you closer. I've probably misunderstood the problem and misspoken, but I don't think you can substitute either for what you're doing now. I would think you'd have to revamp the system and simply "change over." If that's the case, than 1 to 5 is certainly easier unless you really need the graduated levels for more precise evaluations. Susan H. How would I relate that to our current groupings? Would 1 be any grade below 60 (<=59)? Or do you mean apply 1 for <10, 2 for <20, etc.? I can run my samples through this scale if you could explain.

Have you tried a 1 to 10 base? Susan H. Is there a way for us to change our grading system without dropping certain grades from the (previously) correct bucket? I hope it's clear what we're trying to accomplish. -- _______________________________________________ AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com **************************************************************************** ******* "This electronic message is intended to be for the use only of the named recipient, and may contain information from Hudson Health Plan (HHP) that is confidential or privileged.
