Hello - I have a bunch of data that has a comma and I would like to replace the , and anything after it. For example..

Glendale Height, IL 60139

I want to update to just
Glendale Height

Can someone let me know how I can do this with Access?

 
Code:
WhatYouWant = left("Glendale Height, IL 60139",instr(1,"Glendale Height, IL 60139",",")-1)


TMTOWDI - it's not just for Perl any more
