string fns in query

L

liva

I have a table with Id and Products like

01A product1
01B Product21
03A Product3
04A Product4
04B Product41 etc....

I would like to make query with all the id's ending with A.
When I use Right(Id,1)=A , it is not working. Any other
code for this? .
Really appreciate your help.

It should work. What happens when you try? Do you get an error?

The most common problem is messed up References.

This can be caused by differences in either the location or file version of
certain files between the machine where the application was developed, and
where it's being run (or the file missing completely from the target
machine). Such differences are common when new software is installed.

On the machine(s) where it's not working, open any code module (or open the
Debug Window, using Ctrl-G, provided you haven't selected the "keep debug
window on top" option). Select Tools | References from the menu bar. Examine
all of the selected references.

If any of the selected references have "MISSING:" in front of them, unselect
them, and back out of the dialog. If you really need the reference(s) you
just unselected (you can tell by doing a Compile All Modules), go back in
and reselect them.

If none have "MISSING:", select an additional reference at random, back out
of the dialog, then go back in and unselect the reference you just added. If
that doesn't solve the problem, try to unselect as many of the selected
references as you can (Access may not let you unselect them all), back out
of the dialog, then go back in and reselect the references you just
unselected. (NOTE: write down what the references are before you delete
them, because they'll be in a different order when you go back in)

Since it is Text, you should really enclose it in double / single quotes
like

"A"

I would use criteria of

LIKE "*A"

or

Right(ID,1) = "A"

I think that either could be slow, but the the Like clause will tend to be faster.
