[AccessD] Number of 'OR's in queries - what's the limit?

2003 is also 99.  

But, using WHERE PKID IN (1,2,4,8, ...) looks like there will be no limit.
We'll find out.

I found it in A97 and A2002...search help for 'Specifications'...in 97 its 
query specs...and in 2002 its access specs...97 is 40...2002 is 99.

I don't have 2003 to look.

Good Luck,

Mark A. Matte
