Hello Again Robert,
After reading some of the replies I am dumbfounded. I don't know what they
are talking about.
UseYN Artist Title Label No Genre Year
These are the headers for my CD table. I put
a + in the UseYN column on each entry I wanted
to save to a new table. I re-sorted the table and all the + signs
disappeared. I don't think this was what you were trying to explain to me.
I
feel so frustrated. It made sense to me to make
a new column but now I feel so frustrated and
dumb that it would not work for me.
Thank you for your patience,
Emmy
