Brevity is the soul of wit, but often does not help in problem solving. can

If that's been typed into the Criteria cell under a field in the graphical
query builder (and assuming you meant "BLANK-C" Or Is Null), then it's going
to return all rows where that field equals BLANK-C (or blank-c or Blank-C
or..., since Access isn't case sensitive), as well as all rows where no
value has been provided for that field.

In SQL, it equates to

WHERE Field1 = "BLANK-C" OR Field1 IS NULL

Sorry. I didn't write it. It turned out not to be the problem, it was just
some search criteria someone added, but thank you for your time.
