Why a MakeTable? They are VERY rarely necessary. If you need to do an
Export or a Report, just base it on a Select query instead, and avoid
the overhead and inflexiblilty of MakeTables.

Use NewDate: Format([datefield], "mmddyyyy")

Are you certain it's Text datatype? Perhaps you could post the SQL of
the query. Note that MakeTable queries don't necessarily give you much
control over datatypes; you may want to create the desired table,
empty, and use an Append query to fill it instead.

John,
Thanks I've gotten the query to run properly. I really appreciate your help!
