Simple Update Q Problem

[Rod]

I am trying to find the following information:

Update the TestField to be CALLED_ON if:
1) CALLED_ON is >= 270 days ago
2) DNC is set to False
3) CALL_RESULTS <> "Bad Number
4) CALL_RESULTS <> "PFS"
5) CALL_RESULTS <> "Add to DNC"

Here is my code:

UPDATE tblCandidates SET tblCandidates.TestField = [Called_On]
WHERE (((tblCandidates.DNC)=False) AND ((tblCandidates.CALL_RESULTS)<>"Bad
Number" And (tblCandidates.CALL_RESULTS)<>"PFS" And
(tblCandidates.CALL_RESULTS)<>"Add to DNC") AND ((Date()-[CALLED_ON])>=270));

Any thoughts?

Use the IN () predicate:

UPDATE tblCandidates
SET TestField = Called_On
WHERE DNC = False
AND CALL_RESULTS NOT IN ("Bad Number", "PFS", "Add to DNC")
AND (Date()-CALLED_ON) >= 270

Since the value of CALL_RESULTS can only be one value, you'd have to use
a string of OR expressions in parentheses, or the IN () predicate, which
is a shortened version of the string of ORs. E.g.:

WHERE (call_results <> "Bad Number" OR call_results <> "PFS" OR
call_results <> "Add to DNC")
AND DNC = FALSE
AND (Date() - called_on) >= 270
