Remove punctuation

Hello,

Is there a way to remove all punctuation characters from a string in a table field? The 'replace' function only removes one substring character at a time, whereas I'd like to remove all ANSI characters 33 to 47 in one go.
Thankyou

RE: remove punctuation

Hello Gillian

Thank you for your post.

This is something that we would advise on in a consulting capacity, for which there would be an associated cost.

If you would like to receive a quotation from our enquiries team for consultancy work, please contact info@stl-training.co.uk or phone phone number.

Thank you
Best Training team

Access tip:

Remove spaces in a table

If you have a table that has too many space marks littered around, you can create a update query and use the trim function to get rid of any excess space marks
