Hi!
I have a field that has to be 20 Characters long. Most of the time data for this field is less than 20 characters, so the remaining has to be filled with spaces to make it 20. e.g. if there is a record xyz1234567, then the rest of the record should have 10 spaces like xyz1234567ssssssssss, meaning if i click on this record then the cursor should not blink after 7 but after the spaces. Hope I am making sense.
Thanks for any input.
Is there a way in a masked date field(mm/dd/yyyy) that when clicking anywhere in the field that the cursor can be at the beginning of the field? For instance if I were to click in the position of the dd can I get the cursor to be at the first m.
Thanks for any help.

In my Dbase, I have a table with a text field. Field name is Country
There are over 5000 records in the table and many of these in the Country field start with a space. I would like to get rid of this space as to ensure that all text starts with a character, rather than a space.
How can I achieve this.
I have a query that I export to a text file with fixed width settings.
For one particular field that had only been one character and 5 spaces I used PGM: " " & [ProgramCode] for my field. The recipient of the export file requires that this field be 6 spaces long and leading spaces fill in any unused field.
Now, one of the records for this field will be 2 character so the way it is now will cut off the leading character. How can I write this to add leading spaces until it reaches 6?
Not = " " And InStr(1,"seat_person"," ") <> 0
I have a field into which I wish to place a person's name and I want to ensure that the field has a space in it but is not a blank field,
so
all blank - illegal
"Bob" - Illegal
"Bob Smith" - legal
the edit at the top is my attempt to code it but it isn't working.
I want to be but to save a space in a field on a table but every time I do it appears to be a NULL and therefore fails a validation rule that I wish to preserve.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI use several fields to capture a name: LName, FName, MI and Suffix.
In a report I combine the fields.
=[LName] & " " & [Suffix] & ", " & [FName] & " " & [MI]
This works fine if there is a suffix; however, without a suffix I have an extra space.
What is the "work around" to eliminate the space.
I like to store SQL code as a memo field in a table. I then use a form to collect selection criteria from the user, and this is used to create a 'WHERE' clause which is then appended to the stored SQL. This has always worked, but in one recent case the SQL failed. On examination I discovered that although the SQL is correctly stored in the memo field, when Access retrieves the code it inserts a space character in the middle of one of the words, thereby of course creating an invalid SQL string. It's easy to work around it, but why this happens? A bug in Access?

Here is part of the code:
If IsNull([txtRequiredReason]) Then
MsgBox "The Reason field is required"
DoCmd.GoToControl "txtRequiredReason"
Else
I'm trying to set up an import of an Excel file. One field in Excel, "Sales Tax" has a lead space, so " Sales Tax" is its Excel name. Since I can't name a field in Access starting with a space, the only way I know to import properly is to manually remove the space from the Excel file. While this isn't actually that difficult, I'm trying to avoid this manual step if possible.

example :
1 000
2 000
3 000
4 000 000
5 000 000 000
Only workaround I found so far is to import de numbers into a text field in a temp table, do an update query to remove the spaces and then transfert the data into the real table that has a numeric field.
I have a query that pulls information from two different columns in a linked table, and places them together in a single column in a new table. The expression that i use in the query is: Expr1: [ARTINAME]+[ TITLE]. I need to put a space between the two. Is there a way to put a space in between these two when written to the new table?

Amongst many other things i would like to be able to see which teams in our company have access to which database. We currently use up to seven!!! different Databases which makes for tremendous fun...just kidding.
Since every Team has access to more than one Database andevery Database obviously gets used by a multitude of Teams, i thought the best way to go would be a Junction Table. Whilst building this, however, it occured to me that i could have just created fields for each Database in the Team Table which then can be ticked.
So here's my question, is it more space consuming to create a junction table, it certainly appears to be more work right now...
Thank you very much,
Dan

Hi there
I would like to know how to find out how much space a table uses within an MDB. is there a analyser of some kind available that you know of?
Thanks
I need an expression which finds the first space from the right and returns the text (variable length) to the right of it.
Ex.
AMINOPH, THEOPHY. INJ
expression should return INJ
I am trying to break out a field where city, state and zip codes have been consolidated. I want to create a field where I am able to ready the consolidated right either right or left until the first blank space. For example:
"pittsfield ma 01201"
I want to read the field to break out "pittsfield"
Thanks in advance for any help I can get on this :)

Trying to copy files from a external USB drive to the Hard drive.
I have done this a million times and now it decides to foul up. When trying to copy files from the external drive to the hard drive that are 4GB or higher I get an error "Not Enough Disk Space"
Both Drives are NTFS with Plenty of free space. Also get the same error when creating files larger than 4GB. It worked before and no OS changes have been made that I know of.
Hello Everyone :cool: ,
In access, I have a field in a table that I need to fix. The field contains a charge(money) value, with a code attached to it. For example:
[2345.0020680]---> The (2345.00) is the charage amount & the (20680) is the code.
[17580.04PPO]----> (17580.04) is Charge; (PPO) is the code.
**Every charge amount is different, and every codes length is different; so there is no consistency in this field.
I need to add a space, comma, backslash, or something two places after the decimal, to split the two. Once I do that I'll export to excel, and split the field into 2.
HELP!:confused:
Thanks in advance everyone,

Hey all,
I got a massive lump of WORD documents with Avery Mail label tables -- each avery mail label template/table has a mailing address. This how these people store their data. :mad::confused::mad:
So I went through and over a couple days transfered all 458 records to an excel spreadsheet for easy importing to my access mailing database. Problem is that I forgot to clean up a couple of the fields and now I have all these values with unnecessary spaces as the first or last characters for a lot of values.
My question:
Could anyone help me remove the first and/or last character of these values if the character is " "? Would it be easier to do this in excel and just re-import?
can anyone help, when trying to run a dedupe query i get a error message saying 'not enough temporary disc space'
