Checking Horizontally and vertically using ADO?

[kfcSmitty]

For the record, i am using ADODB, with VBA in MS Access 2002

Current Code:

Private Sub personCalculations()
'*******************************************************
'Opens the database and then opens the Workers table
Set cn = New ADODB.Connection
cn.ConnectionString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & _
      "Data Source=C:\Documents and Settings\TSmith14\Desktop\test.mdb"
    cn.Open
    Set rs = New ADODB.Recordset
    rs.Open "Workers", cn, adOpenKeyset, adLockPessimistic, adCmdTable
'********************************************************
Do While rs.EOF = False
'********************************************************
'Finds the academic payamount by comparing Current Payband from the
'Workers table, to the salary with the payband located in AcademicPayband
If rs.Fields("Group") = "Academic" Then
    Set RsPayband = New ADODB.Recordset
    RsPayband.Open "AcademicPayband", cn, adOpenKeyset, adLockPessimistic, adCmdTable
    Do While RsPayband.EOF = False
    If RsPayband.Fields("Payband") = rs.Fields("Current Payband") Then
    academictotals = academictotals + RsPayband.Fields("Salary")
    End If
    RsPayband.MoveNext
    Loop
    RsPayband.Close
'**********************************************************
ElseIf rs.Fields("Group") = "Support" Then
    Set RsPayband = New ADODB.Recordset
    RsPayband.Open "Support Paybands", cn, adOpenKeyset, adLockPessimistic, adCmdTable
    Do While RsPayband.EOF = False
    
    Loop
    RsPayband.Close
    
End If
rs.MoveNext
Loop
rs.Close
Label8.Caption = academictotals
'********************************************************
    
End Sub

Okay, well the academicpayband can find the values very easily, because it is just going through the file in sequential order, but now I am trying to do supportpayband, in which i need to deal with a database like this

Fields:  Payband,      Level1,      Level2,       Level3,      Level4,       Level5,    Level6
             1         $##.##       $##.##        $##.##      $##.##         $##.##    $##.##
             2         $##.##       $##.##        $##.##      $##.##         $##.##    $##.##        
             3         $##.##       $##.##        $##.##      $##.##         $##.##    $##.##
             4         $##.##       $##.##        $##.##      $##.##         $##.##    $##.##
             5         $##.##       $##.##        $##.##      $##.##         $##.##    $##.##

***Sorry for the messy table, but I cant seem to get it right >.<***

Now I need to go through, match the payband, then, match the level, and grab the corresponding value ($##.##) from the table.

I have done multiple attempts at this, but it never seems to grab the value I want.

Could anyone give me some hints on this?

Not to double post or anything, but I fixed my problem (I think, it seems it be working). But the thing is, I dont really know WHY its working... Could someone explain the part I highlighted??

Private Sub personCalculations()
totals = 0
'*******************************************************
'Opens the database and then opens the Workers table
Set cn = New ADODB.Connection
cn.ConnectionString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & _
      "Data Source=C:\Documents and Settings\TSmith14\Desktop\test.mdb"
    cn.Open
    Set rs = New ADODB.Recordset
    rs.Open "Workers", cn, adOpenKeyset, adLockPessimistic, adCmdTable
    rs.MoveFirst
'********************************************************
Do While rs.EOF = False
'********************************************************
'Finds the academic payamount by comparing Current Payband from the
'Workers table, to the salary with the payband located in AcademicPayband
If rs.Fields("Group") = "Academic" And Me![List4] = "Academic" Then
    Set RsPayband = New ADODB.Recordset
    RsPayband.Open "AcademicPayband", cn, adOpenKeyset, adLockPessimistic, adCmdTable
    Do While RsPayband.EOF = False
    If RsPayband.Fields("Payband") = rs.Fields("Current Payband") Then
    totals = totals + RsPayband.Fields("Salary")
    End If
    RsPayband.MoveNext
    Loop
    RsPayband.Close
'**********************************************************
ElseIf rs.Fields("Group") = "Support" And Me![List4] = "Support" Then
Dim strLevel As String
    Set RsPayband = New ADODB.Recordset
    RsPayband.Open "SupportPaybands", cn, adOpenKeyset, adLockPessimistic, adCmdTable
    RsPayband.MoveFirst
    Do While RsPayband.EOF = False
        strLevel = rs.Fields("Level")
        If RsPayband.Fields("Payband") = rs.Fields("Current Payband") Then
            If strLevel <> "0" Then
'****************************************************
                If rs.Fields("Level") = rs.Fields("Level") Then
'****************************************************
                Dim test As String
                test = rs.Fields("Level")
                    totals = totals + RsPayband.Fields(test)
                End If
            End If
        End If
        
        RsPayband.MoveNext
    Loop
    RsPayband.Close
End If
rs.MoveNext
Loop
rs.Close
Label8.Caption = totals
'********************************************************
    
End Sub

I don't really get why that selects the proper column for me....
