We recently instituted a customer loyalty program. I need to set the price level for the 900+ custoemrs with these new cards and account numbers to Price level A. Account numbers are sequential and I can query them in reports but I lack the SQL know how to make the change. Any ideas. Starting Account number is 101010 and ending is 1010955

Hi Chris
Try.... update customer set pricelevel = 1 where accountnumber between 0101010 and 1010955;
I beleive account numbers are 7 digits;
To roll back to all customers having "standard "price level use update customer set pricelevel = 0

I assume you instructions are for a SQL Query to be run in the administrator. I tried but got a syntax error. Am I missing something?
A new twist to the issue. We have several types of numbering for account numbers including alphanumeric, and phone numbers for some accounts. Running the query suggested I get the error
Any suggestions to get around this?
ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS BACK UP YOUR DB BEFORE RUNNING Update, Insert or Delete QUERIES!!!
accountnumber is a string, not a numeric field - put single quotes around the values...
where accountnumber between '0101010' and '1010955'
Note that '0101010' IS NOT the same as '101010' in a character field - the leading zero really does make a difference in this case.
You might want to run a select statement using the same where clause before running the update just to verify that you are getting only the records you want...
select * from customer where accountnumber between '0101010' and '1010955'
--or to get just the count of the records,
select count(*) from customer where accountnumber between '0101010' and '1010955'
