I have table with one field:
Postal
48016350
48016350
48016350
48016350
48016350
I need to add "0" before each record and add "-"(dash) after 5th character in my MsAccess 2000 database.
My goal is:
Postal
04801-6350
04801-6350
04801-6350
04801-6350
04801-6350
Thank you for help.
You can do this with an update query:
UPDATE table
SET postal = "0" & Left(postal,4) & "-" & Right(postal,4)
You can paste the SQL into SQL View of the Query Design window. Make sure you make a copy of the table first.

This is probably a very simple question, but i'm trying to write a formula which will display text depending on the value that is being run.
However, the text i require has the word "Floor" in it which is a function, therefore when i save the formula it warns me saying There is an error in this formula. Do you want to save it anyway?
Is there a way i can include the word Floor in the text, such as putting '' around the word?
For example
IF {database.column} = 3 THEN "3rd Floor"
try this, i think CR is expecting an Else statement
IF {database.column} = 3 THEN
"3rd Floor"
else ""
I found the issue, it was the fact that i had a line break in it without specifying it with Chrw().
Right-Click on feild then Formate Object & insert formula in Display string
IF {database.column} = 3 THEN '3rd Floor'
Please excuse the stupid question, but I am an absolute freshman in Crystal Reports.
I would like to add a plaintext to Crystal Reports. The problem is, if a hyperlink has been inserted that contains a display text, it will be displayed as follows:
HYPERLINK "http://google.de/https://www.google.com/webhp?hl=de&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwipsMvN_-vkAhWCEVAKHf3JBCIQPAgD " google.com
I just want the hyperlink to be displayed within "
The result should be https://www.google.com/webhp?hl=de&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwipsMvN_-vkAhWCEVAKHf3JBCIQPAgD
However, it is also possible that "hyperlinks" that do not contain a hyperlink may occur.
My professor has created an Access database that contains texts and hyperlinks and I have to display the hyperlinks correctly.
Some lines of the database:
HYPERLINK "http://votetandem.org/" votetandem.org
HYPERLINK "https://app.votetandem.org/"votetandem.org
Sometimes there is a space between "URL" display text and sometimes not

I found a solution for my problem. I created a formular field. chr(34) is " in ASCII
If InStr({TABLE},"HYPERLINK " & chr(34)) > 0 Then
Split({TABLE},chr(34))[2]
else
{TABLE}
the URL is the second entry. The first is Hyperlink, second real URL and the third the displayed name.
Is there a possibility or formula, to extract all cell data from different columns then putting them under each other just on one column, each cell data just in one cell, therewith I can sort them e.g. from A to Z in one column.
Thanks in advance
Solution 1
Using helper column.
In Cell E2 enter the following formula
=INDEX($A$2:$C$15,MOD(ROW()-ROW($G$2),ROWS($A$2:$A$15))+1,TRUNC((ROW()-ROW($G$2))/ROWS($A$2:$A$15))+1)
Drag/Copy down as required.
Then in Cell F2 enter
=IFERROR(INDEX($E$1:$E$45,SMALL(IF($E$1:$E$45<>0,ROW($E$1:$E$45)),ROW(F1)+1)),"")
This is an array formula so commit by pressing Ctrl+Shift+Enter. Drag/Copy down as required. Change range as required.
See image for reference.
Solution 2
Using ugly looking long formula.
Enter the following formula in Cell D2
=IFERROR(INDEX($A$2:$A$15, SMALL(IF(ISBLANK($A$2:$A$15), "", ROW($A$2:$A$15)-MIN(ROW($A$2:$A$15))+1), ROW(A1))), IFERROR(INDEX($B$2:$B$15, SMALL(IF(ISBLANK($B$2:$B$15), "", ROW($B$2:$B$15)-MIN(ROW($B$2:$B$15))+1), ROW(A1)-SUMPRODUCT(--NOT((ISBLANK($A$2:$A$15)))))), IFERROR(INDEX($C$2:$C$15, SMALL(IF(ISBLANK($C$2:$C$15), "", ROW($C$2:$C$15)-MIN(ROW($C$2:$C$15))+1), ROW(A1)-SUMPRODUCT(--NOT((ISBLANK($A$2:$B$15)))))), "")))
Drag/Copy down as required. Change range as per you data.
Note : This formula will work only for three or less columns.
An easier way without using any formula. Just go to Find & Select, go to special, select blanks. All the blanks are now selected go to
I've got completely stuck on something that should be trivial: I am working with MS Word 2003, and am putting together a table of figures. I need to have more detail in the table of figures than I have in the caption. For example, in the caption I have:
Fig 1: John and Jenny in London
and in the table of figures I need to the source and accessed date:
Fig 1: John and Jenny in London, available at www.johnandjenny.com, accessed 03/09/2013
I have tried using hidden text in the caption, but the hidden text is not included in the table of figures. The only other thing I can think of is to include all of the detail in the caption, but make the bit that I don't want to show white. This is not ideal, because sometimes the additional detail is several lines long, and this will create a dead space in the caption.
Does anyone have a better way to do this?
Thanks
Sorry - didn't find your question on SU, so posting my answer here ...
Mark your complete caption and press Alt+Shift+X to create an index entry {XE ...} where in the subentry you add your "hidden" text. Then - instead of a table of figures - create an index and add the \r switch to get index entry and subentry on one line.
example:
I have created a textfile as a datasource for a mailmerge in microsoft word. This is working great. Now, i have fields which contains multiline values. When I use this field in the template it creates a "hard" line break (paragraph mark). What does I have to insert into the textfile, that word will creating a "soft" line break (manual line break)?
first:apologize for bad english grammar or vocabulary use.
the way is working with {quote} in ms-word, for example {quote 11} is line break or {quote 12} is page break.
to set it in your document, you should familiar with fields.
press Ctrl+F9 to insert field and then insert "quote ##" (## is any number charchode) in it. then press F9 to Enter and execute.
0x0b (i.e. "Vertical Tab") is probably the only way to do it, but I would check that you don't get document corruption in the output.
