I want to select unique country names from a recordset and now my code is

"select distinct country"

The problems is that ASIA and Asia are different, but it only selects one.How can I include both of them?

you need to use the LCase statement!

you supplied your code as "select disitinct country" any chance you can explain how to use this code as it is much shorter than anything i have ever used!

With SQL Server, it is an insttallation option, but I bet you aren't using SQL Server.
