Checking values in different fields.

Hello, I was wondering if anyone could help me with something.

I currently have a table with stock levels and a re-order level. When the
stock level gets below the re-order level I then contact the supplier and
order new stock.

I was wanting to create a query that checks the values of these two fields
and then shows me all the records that need re-ordering. I however, don't
know how to compare the values of two fields. Could anyone give me a hand?

Many thanks.

In a query?
Add a new column in addition to the stock items.
TimeToBuy:[StockLevel]<=[ReorderLevel]

As criteria on this column, write
True

If you wish to show the items that are not necessary to re-order set
the criteria to
False
