Time Syntax in query

Hi

I am using the this time syntax in an acess query; iif([Setup
Time]>=#12:00:00 PM#,"PM","AM"). Problem is that I am getting error on the
date expression. What is the correct expression to represent 12 noon in an
access query?

Thanks

If it is an access query, you need to extract the time or supply a date. A
date/time field includes both, and represents a point in time, not a time of
day. When you only put in the time, the date part internally is 0, which
represents Dec. 30, 1899.

If is a query against a server database, then the time representation will,
no doubt, be different.

So is something like
IIf(Format([SetupTime],"hh:nn:ss")>Ti meSerial(12,0,0 ),"PM","AM")
OK?

Hi There, I have an update statement to update a field of a table (~15,000,000 records). It took me around 3 hours to finish 2 weeks ago. After that no one touched the server and no configuration changed. Until yesterday, I re-ran it again and it took me more than 18hrs and still not yet finished!!! What's wrong with it? I can ran it successfully before. I have tried two times but the result was still the same.
