Is it possibile too......

Asked by commeng in Microsoft Access Database, SQL Query Syntax, Access Coding/Macros

Tags: Microsoft, Access 2000, 2000, Truncating Data

Is it possible either in Excel or in Access to take data that is over 240 characters, cut it off and move the remaining character to another field and then again if it is over 240 characters to cut it off and then move it to yet another.  I need to be able to do this at least 4 times.  

The data is starting out in Excel, being imported into a access so I can run some queries and then being export out to Excell again.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.Start Free Trial
