Convert Numbers to Text

Convert Numbers to Text

(OP)
Can someone please help me? I need to convert a numbers column in an access table to a text format

RE: Convert Numbers to Text

Your question is a bit spartan. I assume you have a need to only format the value and not change the data type of the field.
You can use CStr([YourNumericField]) or in a query just add a zero-length string [YourNumericField] & "".

TJVFree may want to do this (who knows…?)

1 convert to “one”
10 convert to “ten”
123 convert to “one hundred twenty three”

Have fun.

RE: Convert Numbers to Text

Do you want to change the data IN THE ACCESS DATA COLUMN to text in the Access Table, or do you want to convert the numeric values from you Access data column to text in a query?

RE: Convert Numbers to Text

Good call Andy. This is one of those questions that should be accompanied by some context and examples.
