quartz
Hello, I'm using Office 2003 on Win XP.
In Access, I'm trying to circumvent having to reformat a poorly formed temp
table in which a field consisting of numbers is cast as TEXT.
All I need is to change the data type on the fly in a SQL statement. I
working from a module, so I need the SQL syntax to do this. I guess you can't
change the datatype in an ORDER BY using something like: CDBL([FieldName]) ?
---or if you can then my syntax is wrong...
....A.STRUCT_TYP, A.POLE_TYPE, " & CDBL(A.HEIGHT) & ", A.CLASS_WEGT;"
Can someone help me out here...let me know if I'm not clear enough...
Thanks for the assistance.
