Query Formula help please

[Johnathon Anderson]

I hope someone can point out my error.

If [Equipment] = "Shoes Only"
or
If [Equipment] = "Not Required"

and (if either of the 2 above are true)

If [ShoeSize] = Null

then
"Please supply your child's shoes size"

This does not work

NoShoeSize: IIf([Equipment] Not Like "Shoes Only" Or [Equipment] Not Like
"Not Required" And [ShoesSize] Is Null,"Please supply your child's shoes
size")

I have tried many variations but can't get it to work

Thank you

Johnathon

Supplying the shoe size will always return an empty record because you've
also told it that the shoe size is null. The following query will return
record which fit your requirements of a null shoe size:

SELECT Equipment, ShoeSize
FROM tblTest
WHERE (((Equipment)<>"School Shoes Only") AND ((ShoeSize) Is Null)) OR
(((Equipment)<>"Not Required") AND ((ShoeSize) Is Null));
