    Shorten String

    This worked perfectly to display the data. totext(datetime({Anaheim_Import_Data.Incident_Date}),"MM-dd") It does not let me perform simple addition or subtration.

    Shorten String

    In an access database the field "date1" is a text datatype that is formatted as "yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss" How do i shorten this to display only "mm-dd"? I'm getting the left side but i need it to cut off. LEFT({Anaheim_Import_Data.Incident_Date},6) How do I convert this to "mm-dd-yyyy"?

    handling disagreement with senior team member

    Thank You all for the replies. That was great perspective. I stated my reasons why I think its appropriate to update the user id and sent it in written form to my senior team member. If there is still disagreement then I will ask the senior member to inform the user.
