Add character to end of string

Steve_A

I am working with some data to add a ; to the end of a sting (Filed) so the
data can be loaded into another system.

All the data is different length up to 44 character filed length, I need to
run my update query selecting data from a different field and up date this
text string.

Thanks

Create a query.

Type an expression like this into the Field row:
[F] & ";"
replacing the F with your field name.

Export the query.
