    Weird White Space Character From Excel File

    It's a nonbreaking space. If it's just an import problem and they aren't used in the body of descriptions instead of regular chr(32) spaces, you could just use the replace function, but it might be easier and safer to replace just that character. I'd probably do this if it were me: update...

    Linked SQL tables, Access front end, subforms - what am I missing?!?

    Thanks, Gina. This is already a SQL back end, though--using Access 2010 as a front end only. I think I would have found the problem sooner if I hadn't been sick for practically a solid two months! Brain function began to return at the same time normal human color did :) I'm in beta testing...

    I've ended up here numerous times when searching for solutions, and probably like most am joining today because I've got a problem I'm hoping to resolve--but that's for another board! I live in Virginia, USA but will try not to make a yank arse of myself. (too late? well, I promise not to do...
