I am working on creating a PO database in Access 2000 and have a data mess.
The original PO system was an excel spreadsheet with people filling in what
information they throught was needed. The biggest problem I am having is in
my cost and quantity fields. The fields were created as text fields as
opposed to number fields. So I have things like 9.99 plus shipping in cost
or 3pcs. in quantity. Is there a way to query this info and have access
seperate the fields that have numbers ONLY (uswing a create table most
likely) , and using that same methodology run a search and replace to clean
up what I can before just going in and hand cleaning the table?
Any help would be appreciated GREATLY.
