I am interested in creating a field in query based on the values in
existing fields. If the value in field A = 'Y' then insert value in
field B, else do nothing. I get syntax errors, but nothing that is
helpful to correct the 'error'.

If you are trying to return to Excel, only those items from column B of the
file you're interrogating that have a corresponding "Y" in column A, then you
can do this by recording a macro to import both columns A and B, with the
condition of only importing rows containing a "Y" in column A, and then
deleting column A once it's in Excel.........
