Trying to split a column in Access with all fields having the format:
COLUMN:[NUMBER(fixed length) NAME(varying length)]
I see in Excel they have a Text to Columns function which creates two
columns which seperate the NUMBER and NAME. Does Access have this
functionality. Can kick it out to Excel but I'm over the 65,000 rows
and would have to split, etc.
3  13360 
Try
Number: Left(Column,5) assuming this is a 5 digit ficed length
number with leading zeros
Name :Right(Column,L en(Column)-5)

Thanks Phil. The column looks like this 1000258 SmithCorp. The
numbers are always the same length but the names vary in size and
sometimes have spaces. I think the format of how I posted made it
confusing and don't know if I can get to the solution from your post.
I will try to create two new columns using your post as a guide.

Good morning group. When I translate a text document into access, the data
does not align exactly into the fields. It may be spread over three
different fields.
Two questions; How do I keep the text columns straight so the data is in
the exact field? And, if the data cannot be placed into a single field, how
can the fields be merged so that all the particular data falls into the
field where it must be?
Thanks Group!

Hello. I have some very large text files that I need to import into
Access. These files are basically SAP system reports that can be up to
100,000 records but they contain a boatload of data I don't care about.
My thinking was to clean up as much as I can and edit the files into
columns, much like Excel would do, except I am exceeding the 60,000
record limit. Can anyone suggest a good free text editor that will
allow me to cleanup enough...

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
