Hey everyone.
Ok, I've got a question.
If I have a field, say "Address" and it contains a full address ie " 1392 Old Highway 342 ". Is there a way I create query a query that will take the 1st set of numbers it sees and insert them into a new field called "House_No".
So for instance, in this case it would take 1392 from the Address field and stick it in "House_No" leaving only Old Highway 342 in the "Address" field.
I know I can't use a standard left() or right(), because the house number can be anywhere from 2-6 digits in some cases. ie. "845 E 4th Street" or "39992 HWY 62". So it needs to look for the first set of numbers before a space hits. I know in some cases I'll get some errors, but I can go back and correct those later.
