CSV format - issue

1 New Member
I have a file in CSV format. I want to be able to sort a column that has names in it. I want to be able to sort with LAST NAME, BUT WHEN I open the file in Excel, the first name, middle initial and last name are together.
Is there a way to sort out the LAST name so I can sort with last name rather than with the whole name, first name first.

I apologise if this post seems a little basic, but I am a newbie and have NO access knowledge. I have downloaded the Accounts Ledger from the Microsoft Website. It allows the user to review a report of transactions between a Start & End date. The Tables and forms i believe are UK format "dd/mm/yyyy", However, when I click on "Review Reports" and enter the date as UK "dd/mm/yyyy", it returns nothing.

Hello all, General question for back-end database that has numerous date fields where the database will be used in regions that put the month first, and regions that do not. Should I save a date format in the table design, such as: mm/dd/yyyy? What I've done for years is to store the date format in date fields, then on the forms, based on their region, I would set the date formats on form_load

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
