I am interested in extracting the records that has 1 in the ("Na_Yes_No"
field) with the following scenario:
(0 1 1 0) or (0 1 1 1 0), I do not care about records that has 1 in the
following Scenario: (0 1 0). the "1" must be repeated at least 2 times to be
of interest to me.

in the above example there should be 9 records that I am interested in
(flagging/extracting). these 9 records are for the following dates:
7/18/1996
7/26/1996
8/22/1996
9/9/1996
3/3/1997
3/11/1997
5/1/1997
5/8/1997
5/19/1997
any idea how?
thanks
Al

I would say you need to write VBA to do this.
You would have to read each record, check for Na_Yes_No, then read next
record. If you find Na_Yes_No to be set in two or more records, you would
have to copy said records into an array. At the end, you should have what you
are looking for.

Are you looking for someone to write the code for you or are you simply
looking for suggestions?
