Our Xerox production printers export a log in ':' delimited format. No big deal, except that each field has a tag like so: Job ID = 999999 Job ID = 999998 Job ID = 999997 See what I mean? I have simply imported the whole CSV file into Access and was now wondering if I could do the following? Pull everything out of the field AFTER the '=' sign. SELECT FIELD1, FIELD3, FIELD10 FROM ImportTable WHERE FIELD1=' everything after the = sign ' AND FIELD3=' same idea ' AND FIELD10=' same idea ' So when I execute the query all I get for Job IDs is: 999999 999998 999997 Is there a way to do this in the query? I am totally inexperienced. Thanks in advance, RDB
