The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Extracting string characters with different combination using MS Access 2007

Asked by marellano in SQL Query Syntax, Access Coding/Macros

Tags: , , ,

I have a field in a table that has narritive information.  The field may or may not contain the characters that I want to be able to extract.  The characters I want to extract will contain the letter "L" somewhere in the field, followed by a series of number combinations:

For example:
"TESTL2TEST"                        = L2
"L6 TEST"                               = L6
"TEST L99/L4"                        =L4
 "TESTTEST L2.2"                   =L2.2
"TEST L16.6 TEST L99"          = L16.6
"L99/L72.3 TEST"                   = L72.3

The last example has one major exception.  If the field contains the charaters "L99", I do NOT want the logic to the "L99" but instead select the "L72.2".  So if the logic finds the characters "L99", I need it to have to check and see if another combination exists that has an "L" followed by 1-2 digits OR by 1-2 digits with a "." (decimal) and another digit.

I'm having to do this in MS Access so a sql syntax is preferred. I'm also open to creating a module in MS Visual Basic.  

Hope that makes sense!!

thanks for your expert help in advance!
