Are you able to nest IIf statements just like in Excel?

What I am trying to do is build a column in a query that looks at more than one column then kicks out a TRUE or FALSE. For instance, Column 1 = Jan, Column 2 = Feb, Column 3 = March. I need to build a formula that looks at the 3 columns and if the all three are showing a 0, then "YES", otherwise "NO".

Yes. You can nest IIf's 7 layers deep. Check the Access Help files for syntax.

...and Welcome to UA!

I just re-read your post. This can be accomplished with only 1 IIf.

Iif([Jan] = 0 AND [Feb] = 0 AND [March] = 0, "Yes", "No")

If any could be NULL then you will want the Nz to convert NULL to 0.

Iif(Nz([Jan],0) = 0 AND Nz([Feb],0) = 0 AND Nz([March],0) = 0, "Yes", "No")
