No Points wanted,
To get just the number you could use:
StreetNumber: Left([CustAddress],InStr([CustAddress]," "))
Not sure what you meant about "Copy"
But using these examples you could build a query like this to display the original field and the two "derived" fields, ...then you could "Use" the derived field anywhere you liked, without having to "copy" anything.
SELECT CustID,CustName, CustAddress, Left([CustAddress],InStr([CustAddress]," ")-1) AS CustStreetNumber, Right([CustAddress],Len([CustAddress])-InStr([CustAddress]," ")) AS CustStreetName
FROM tblCustomers;
But again, ...no points wanted as Bill has answered your Q as posted, ...
I was just passing by...
