Hi,

I have a table with text data in Field1. In some cases
Field1 contains the value "VENDOR NUM". I want to use an
Access DB Module Function and search for the record(s)
with "VENDOR NUM" in it. Once I find the record, I'll use
the Left() and Right() Function to extract a certain # of
characters from Table2!Field2 and place elsewhere in
Table2. I'm using the following but can't get it to work
for nothing:

If Table1!Field1 Like "*VENDOR*" Then

I'd really appreciate any help you could give me on this
issue. Thanks in advance.
 
Already answered in another newsgroup to which you posted the same question.

If you feel you need to post to more than one group (HINT: it's seldom
necessary), please have the courtesy to cross-post (send the one message to
all groups at once), rather than multi-post (send individual messages to
each group). In this way, all responses to your post will be available
together, regardless of what group the responder was in, and the rest of us
won't have to read your post multiple times. (It also uses fewer server
resources)

If you're using Microsoft's web interface to post, I believe you can type
the names of the various groups into the Newsgroup box. Separate each
newsgroup name with a semicolon.

Note that it's generally consider to be A Bad Thing to cross-post to more
than about 2 or 3 newsgroups. (In fact, at
http://www.microsoft.com/presspass/features/2001/Mar01/Mar27pmvp.asp
Microsoft suggests that "One group will suffice")
