Populate one field using info from another with added text

[smarmySpoot]

I recently updated my Access 2007 database to allow images to be displayed in a form. In order for this to work, the path to the image file must be typed in a field, what I am calling ImageName.

The images are numbered the same way as they are in the database. What I want to be able to do is pull the image number from one field, and "wrap" the path information around it in another field. Something like this:

C:Folder\Folder \[ImageNumber].jpg where the ImageNumber, which exists in another field, can be pulled and put in the middle of the text.

Any ideas? Thanks!

You can use the Mid() function to extract a substring. You can use the & character to concatenate multiple strings.

My best recommendation for that is to use the functionality provided by Replace().

Assuming you already know the path is "C:\Folder\Folde r\" then you could use :

strFullName = Replace("C:\Folder\Folder\#.jpg", "#", Me.txtImageNo)
