I have a table of over 81k lines. One field within this table is for date
of birth (DOB).
I'd like to set this as a date/time type (format: dd-mm-yyyy) yet when I do
this it tries to delete some records (28k). I'm allowing no entries so I
know it's not that.
Looking thru this column I have noticed that some entries are just 2 digit
eg: 15.
This may indicate the users age I'm not sure.
What would be best practice to format this field?
1) leave as text?
2) delete the entries in that field (not the record)?
3) something else?
Also, what query would I run to find out where the anomolies are?
(v new to access and queries)
thanks
