Hello Again All,
I have a memo field that is backslash delimited. I am attempting to break up this field into individual fields.
Ex (memo field). \John L. Doe\\StreetName RD\\City, Pa 11111 -
To look like this:
-
John L. Doe StreetName RD City, Pa 11111
-
I have been using this function in a query which, works fine if that part in the memo field is always constant i.e. company name. -
right(left[tablename],instr(x, [tablename],"\")-1,x) 'where x is an integer
-
How can I parse, say the customer name, being that it's never a constant length?

Hi, Bender.
You may use Split() function to parse substrings easily.

I have a pretty straightforward database that is designed to record
free-form information about products (date, source and a memo field).
This is searched and updated via a form. For new records, the memo
field is usually filled by cutting and pasting from e-mails, web
content and spreadsheets.
The only problem is that some of the memos can be just a few words,
and some can be tens or hundreds of lines, and I've realised that

I'm trying to import data into a memo field by running an append query. The
data is to be imported as

inserting chr(13)s into the string that is being appended into the memo
field but when appended, the data displays with a square box in place of a
carriage return/line feed. I would like to import the data so that data is
displayed in separate lines within the memo...

Hello,
I'm looking for a way to parse/format a memo field within a report.
The Access 2000 database (application) has an equipment table that
holds a memo field. Within the report, the memo field is printed within
the detailed area. The problem is, the apllication is not setup
properly, thus the users are entering data within the memo field as:
location1 1/1/2005 1/1/2006

I have an ASP that displays two MS Access memo fields in separate table
cells just fine. However when I concatenate them with SQL as in "select fld1
& fld2 as temp...." to display them in one cell only part of the first field
is displayed in the table. What is causing this?
thanks

This is mainly a speed question.
In this example: I have a QuotesHdr table that has a few memo fields. If
these memo fields are used extensively by some users, and if their are a
large number of records in QuotesHdr, should I break out the memo fields
into a separate table? The thinking here is that, for Quotes selection
dropdowns that display all entries in QuotesHdr for selection, I would think
that the entire record comes down over...
