Access VBA - Parse string into multiple columns

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

Tags:

I have two tables in Access.  One each will have a string like this

County of Broward

and the other

Broward County

This is a very simple example.  What I'm trying to do is find a match between these two tables.  These two are matches but because they are worded differently they would never match.  My thought is to parse the words into their own columns so that I could to a word by word comparison and make a best guess as to a match.

Questions:
1. Is this the best way to go about this?
2. if so, how would I parse these strings into their own columns?

Thanks
