What version of Access?
For Access 2002, you should be able to use:
UPDATE Table1 SET p = Replace([p], "#", Chr(13))
For Access 2000, Replace doesn't always work correctly in SQL, and you have
to write your own wrapper function which uses Replace, like:
Function MyReplace(StringToSearch As Variant, _
StringToSearchFor As String, _
StringToReplaceWith As String) As String
MyReplace = Replace(StringToSearch, _
StringToSearchFor, _
StringToReplaceWith)
End Function
then use
UPDATE Table1 SET p = MyReplace([p], "#", Chr(13))
For Access 97 or earlier, you'll have to write your own Replace function.
One possibility is to copy the code from
http://www.mvps.org/access/strings/str0004.htm at "The Access Web", in which
case you'd then use
UPDATE Table1 SET p = FindAndReplace([p], "#", Chr(13))

I have the a table "Table1" with memo field "p".
Can you write a query so update the symbol "#"
with the chr(13) inside the memos? (in SQL form)
I am new in SQL and i want this for a example.
