To reverse the ranking: SELECT T1.Student, T1.GradeLevel, T1.GPA, (SELECT Count(*) FROM tblGrades WHERE GradeLevel=T1.GradeLevel) AS [Kids in Grade], (SELECT Count(*) FROM tblGrades WHERE GradeLevel=T1.GradeLevel and GPA<=T1.GPA) AS [Rank in Grade] FROM tblGrades AS T1; The change is AND GPA<=T1.GPA instead of >= . Just a note, the way this is going to calculate the 'rank', will have some people with the same number: Ie, Student GPA Bob 2.1 Sue 3.8 Drew 3.8 This would return 1 2 2 Just a note. It should have the same number for students with a 'tie' grade.

Susan H. Susan: I am in Accesst. <<Sue>> No code necessary. Here's an example of how to do this with a query, on tblGrades. There are three fields. Student, GradeLevel and GPA: SELECT T1.Student, T1.GradeLevel, T1.GPA, (SELECT Count(*) FROM tblGrades WHERE GradeLevel=T1.GradeLevel) AS [Kids in Grade], (SELECT Count(*) FROM tblGrades WHERE GradeLevel=T1.GradeLevel and GPA>=T1.GPA) AS [Rank in Grade] FROM tblGrades AS T1; The last two columns will return the number of students in that grade, and the rank of that student within that grade. Drew Drew, the query would work fine except I need it to rank the lowest score as 1. I tried sorting the score but neither ascending or descending seems to make a difference. <<Sue>> Susan Klos Evaluation and Reporting 325 W.
