Any advice or suggestions on how to achieve the following would be
appreciated:
We have a Access database for our clients in which we have 2 text fields
called Fname & SName, for the Forename & Surname of the client.
We now wish to append a 3rd party Access database to the above database.
Within this database they have a field called contacts. Data held within
this field is in the form:
John Smith
John A Smith
J A Smithe
J A C Jones
There are about 4000 records in this database. What would be the best way of
extracting the forenames from the contact field so that they appended to the
Fname field in the 1st database and also to extract the Surname for
appending to the SName field, again in the 1st database.
Using Access 2003.
TIA
Tom
