I have a database that is linked to AFD Postcode plus, so when I enter a postcode into a textbox, the rest of the address comes up for a particular area.

I.E. HX1 3PA - would be Lombard Street, Halifax, W Yorks.

I want my query to look at the entered postcode in that text box and extract anything up to and not including the " " value and display it in a seperate column for further querying.

How would this be done in a query.. I'm not familiar with SQL so please if this is the only way to do it, then explain what you are saying...

Thanks in advance you brainy lot!!
