Undefined function in Access 2003

[Guest]

When I try to use the Left function in Access 2003, such as
Left("C:\MyFiles\", 3) I get an Undefined function in expression Left.
Not having done much programming for a few years this one is frustrating,
any thoughts

Yo may want to try a VB or Access newsgroup. They will
probably have some ideas. I'll take a shot at it though

I would try putting the value into a string and then do the
function on the string.

Hi Andylees,

What is the complete statement?
