Thank you for this - this is helpful.<br />

It would be wonderful to have examples with Access SQL - since I so often make my own formulas, but they are never just right (that is when to use Right, Left, -1, +1, etc).

Can anyone please offer a resource on how to separate/modify name fields in Access. I use various examples from internet searching, and previously provided answers from EE - but Ii would love to have one or two thorough and comprehensive resources that will enable me to understand how the forumulas work (i.e. mid, left, right, etc)?<br />

Thanks.

Access and separaing/modifying names - Resources

Microsoft Access is a rapid application development (RAD) relational database tool. Access can be used for both desktop and web-based applications, and uses VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) as its coding language.

Microsoft Access

Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) enables building user-defined functions (UDFs), automating processes and accessing Windows API and other low-level functionality through dynamic-link libraries (DLLs). VBA is closely related to Visual Basic and uses the Visual Basic Runtime Library, but it can normally only run code within a host application rather than as a standalone program. It can, however, be used to control one application from another via OLE Automation. VBA is built into most Microsoft Office applications.
