Question : Update Query to Delete everything to thr right: 4th comma
|
|
Access 2003
I need an Update query that will delete everything to the left of the 4th comma in a a string. ===================================== Or maybe I need a function like this Revised:
Function getword(mystring As String) As String Dim v As Variant v = Split(Left([mystring], InStr([mystring], ",") - 1), " ") getword = v(UBound(v)) End Function
UPDATE tblRichText set fldFirstComma = getword(fldRichText) ==========================================
Sometimes the field may not have 4 commas, or No commas at all.
Thanks fordraiders

try this
Function getWord(s As String) As String Dim xArr, j, sTemp xArr = Split(s, ",") If UBound(xArr) < 4 Then 'comma is less then 4 getWord = s Else xArr = Split(s, ",", 5) For j = 0 To UBound(xArr) - 1 sTemp = sTemp & xArr(j) & "," Next getWord = Left(sTemp, Len(sTemp) - 1) End If End Function
