    Conditional join? - only part of the field matches...

    Hello. I am making some progress but there's still something missing. Apparently there are records in tblMaterialChanges.Drawing that aren't in the tblRequesters table, and I do need those records to be displayed as well. I could do that with a left join but I'm not sure how to integrate that...

    Conditional join? - only part of the field matches...

    When I try that new code I get the 8 records where the data matches exactly. And I just realized that there are 3 records in both tables where the data is exactly six characters. And if I take out the OR and everything after it (see below), those 3 records are all that I get. SELECT...

    Conditional join? - only part of the field matches...

    Actually I spoke too soon. I no longer get syntax errors but if I expand my query and add another column (Originators) from tblRequesters, it only shows those Originators in the records without hyphens, when there should be an Originator in almost every record. SELECT...

    Use "Text to Columns" in code?

    Thanks Skip & Gavona. Skip is right, this is a one-time cleanup. And I have already wasted a couple of hours today trying to figure out the VBA. I guess one problem I had was with my sort, as I was trying it with "Sort A to Z" and running into the array error. Sorting through the "Sort"...

    Use "Text to Columns" in code?

    Hello. I have been tasked with cleaning up an old spreadsheet with over 14,000 rows of data. Essentially the spreadsheet was designed to track when something was done, and the initials of the person who performed the action. When the spreadsheet was first used both the initials and the date...
