    hi, I have a problem, I have a table and in that table the field f and record 2 says this

    entity///physical entity///object, physical object

    how do I tell access that I want the field g and record 2 to be "everything to the right of the last///?



    I mean: object, physical object

    Put this expression in field g, ie. field g:=MID([field f],FIND(CHAR(1),REPLACE([field f],"///",CHAR(1),2))+3,LEN([field f])-(CHAR(1),REPLACE([field f],"///",CHAR(1),2)))

    I can't use the formula because it's in English, how can I translate any formula to the language of my access easily?

    You will need to search google or some other Search Engine and find out what the function equivalents are in your language for your version of Access. I live in the US and work only in Access in English. Good Luck with your translations.
