Let me start by saying I am very new to Access and would appreciate any help
you experts can give me. I need to remove some leading characters in one
column. The problem is the leading character is not always the same. The
field is 8 characters long and the leading characters will vary from 1-7
zero’s or the letter “M†and 1-6 zeros or the letter “Mâ€.
For example the column name is CustNum and the data in the column is
Currently I want it to look like:
M0007202 7202
M0044863 44863
M1317017 1317017
00007132 7132
00754604 754604
To warn you I am so new to Access I would also need to know where to go to
enter/paste any code you may provide. Please take pity on a newbie and help
him out.
Thanks much in advance.
