Hi, Would apprectaie some help with the following. If I have a text field in access like "Graham Murphy T/A The Big Tree" How do I split the field into "Graham Murphy" and "The Big Tree" Many thanks lads!
Use the following Query Code: SELECT Left([Table1].[test],Instr([Table1].[test]," T/A")-1), Right([Table1].[test],Instr([Table1].[test]," T/A")-2) FROM Table1;
That works great for what is left of the 'T/A' but its not grabbing all of the right side of the string for some reason. Thanks for the help though!
The field names are all different lengths. How do I grab everything to the right of T/A. Thanks again!
Instr([Table1].[test]," T/A") gets the index of [Table1].[test] string where T/A starts Right([Table1].[test],Instr([Table1].[test],"T/A")-2) should get the content of the field after T/A If it does not for any case put that string.
Change right to mid That is what I did and the whole thing worked Mid([Table1].[Test],InStr([Table1].[Test]," ")) AS Last
