Query to determine individual values within a range
I am relatively new to Access. I can join tables and run queries but I am
stumped on this one. I have a SAP table downloaded called Roles that contain a range of values for transactions. There is another table with all the transaction values. The Roles table has a value From and To that can contain wildcards such as "*". The "F-52,54,57" etc. type transactions are actual values. So, F-54 to F-57 would be F-54, F-55, F-56, F-57. My dilemma is I need to decode the From To so that I can get the appropriate values from my Transaction table. This has to be clever enough to decode the range and lookup any values that fall within that range. Here is what one role has for ranges. All transaction codes are alphanumeric. Any ideas?

Query to determine individual values within a range
Hi mpdsal,
I think you are going to struggle to come up with any code to decifer that lot, for example what comes next between FY1R and F109, if every alphanumeric is used in order of a letters then number, there are thousands of *possible* values in between. Your best bet is to create another table with all the possible values in order, and then compare your data to that. Even then, you've punctuation and wildcards to work around. good luck, you'll need it!!!!  TonyT.. "mpdsal via AccessMonster.com" wrote: I am relatively new to Access.
