    Thankyou for all your help, I am finally i hope moving in the right direction.
    I have created a new table where each issue of each document is a new entry, i then found that if i create a crosstab query, using DocID as the row heading and Date as the column heading i can create the exact table i've been looking for, with the added bonus of having the current revision displayed in the second column.
    Without thinking 'out of the box'...

    If there is an easier way, i'm all for it, simple is in my book always best.
    However, Keep It Simple is sometimes easier said than done, i agree i'm probably thinking more in terms of excel than access, but can't get past the fact that for numerous documents in a list, i need to show not only the revision that has been issued (Of which there could be many) but also the dates at which each revision has been sent.
