    Posted: 21 November 2003 at 8:10am

Would someone assist me with a SELECT statement.  I have a variable MemID and I want to select records where TWO fields are tested for value in same table e.g.:

SELECT * From [tblMembers] WHERE [Arthor_ID]=" MemID

Works fine on one field test. Is There an OR command? So I can do something like:

 SELECT * From [tblMembers] WHERE [Arthor_ID]=" MemID & " OR WHERE [MemID]=" MemID  

TIA For any suggestions or guidance.

If you are in Access:

SELECT * FROM [tblMembers] WHERE [Author_ID]= " MemID & " OR  [Author_ID] = & " OtherMemID

If you are in SQL, you can use the "IN" command

SELECT * From [tblMembers] WHERE [Author_ID] IN (" & MemID & ", " & OtherMemID & ")

just a note.. i noticed i mixed up the first SQL statement, this one is correct:

SELECT * FROM [tblMembers] WHERE [Author_ID]= " MemID & " OR  [Author_ID] = " & OtherMemID
