Does Access have a limit to the type of OR conditions in a query?
I am trying to filter 20 criteria but it only allows 7
 
According to the help file, the maximum number of ANDs in a WHERE or HAVING
clause is 99. The help file doesn't specifically mention ORs but I would be
very surprised if it was different. Perhaps you may be running up against
one of the other limits. Search the help file using the keyword
'specifications' to find them.

BTW: What happens when you try? Are you getting an error message?

Actually Im jst establishing the criteria in teh table provided by design
view. I am not writing any typ of argument, just using the table
 
Same thing, Edwin. When you enter something in the criteria row in the query
design grid, a WHERE clause is created. It doesn't matter whether it is
created manually, by typing the SQL, or graphically, using the query design
grid, it is still a WHERE clause, and still subject to the same
specifications.

But when I reach my seventh criteria the table does not move down.
 
Select 'Rows' from the 'Insert' menu.

Just one more thing. How do I attach a yes no field to a memo field. Lets
say the user clicks the yes no field (with NO) then associate a paragraph
(???a memo field)???)with that NO in a Report
