Question : MS Access to do select statement with first three characters starting with ABC
HI
In MS Access how can I do a select statement that selects all fields that start with ABC? I want to select these fields then chop off the ABC bit, ie do an update.
Ideally I want to just write pure SQL and use the expression builder
Answer : MS Access to do select statement with first three characters starting with ABC
here is the select query
select [Fieldname] from Tablex
where [FieldName] Like "ABC*"
to do an update removing the ABC part
update tableX
set [FieldName]=mid([FieldName
],4)
where [FieldName] Like "ABC*"
