Displaying data from multiple fields in a query

I have a table that has (4) fields that contain explanations. What I would
like to do is create a query that will display the data if any of those
fields are filled in. I tried the "Is not null" in all of the criteria and
it displayed no records.

That only works if I do individual fields.

I am using Access XP 2003 Professional
 
How did you specify Is Not Null? Was this in the graphical query builder,
and you put Is Not Null on the same line under all 4 fields? That ANDs the
conditions together, so it would only return those rows where all 4 of the
fields were null. To OR the conditions together, put each one on a separate
row in the grid.
 
Thank you so much. It worked just like I wanted it to. I didn't know about
the "OR" function. Still learning.
