My bad, I thought you were updating the file for later use.

For a query, the same thing works, though:

SELECT MAX(AMOUNT, 0) AS DEBIT, MIN(AMOUNT,0) AS CREDIT

Sorry about the confusion...

Piece of cake.

UPDATE MYFILE SET
DEBIT = MAX(AMOUNT,0),
CREDIT = MIN(AMOUNT,0)

Your amount field is still intact, but your two new fields have either zero or the appropriate amount (plus or minus).
